In this work the durability of Portland cement systems incorporating supplementary cementing materials (SCM; silica fume, low- and high-calcium fly ash) is investigated. Experimental tests simulating the main deterioration mechanisms is reinforced concrete (carbonation and chloride penetration) were carried out. It was found that for all SCM tested, the carbonation depth decreases as aggregate replacement by SCM increases, and increases as cement replacement by SCM increases. The specimens incorporating an SCM, whether it substitutes aggregate or cement, when exposed to chlorides exhibit significantly lower total chloride content for all depths from the surface, apart from a thin layer near the external surface. New parameter values were estimated and existing mathematical models were modified to describe the carbonation propagation and the chloride penetration in concrete incorporating SCM.
