Silicon-29 and oxygen-17 nuclear magnetic resonance investigation of the structure of calcium-silicate-hydrate

This thesis investigates the structure of calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H), a major hydration product of Portland cement, using primarily $\sp{29}$Si and $\sp{17}$O MAS and $\sp1$H-$\sp{29}$Si CPMAS NMR, XRD, chemical and thermal analysis. It presents a comprehensive defect-tobermorite structural model for C-S-H.
