Spectroscopy, a broad term encompassing various techniques such as infrared (IR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), and Raman spectroscopy, is utilized to understand the chemical and physical properties of materials by measuring their interaction with electromagnetic radiation. In the context of cement and concrete, these spectroscopic methods are used to analyze the composition and hydration processes of cementitious materials, crucial for assessing their quality and durability. IR spectroscopy, for example, can detect the presence of specific hydration products and carbonate formations, while Raman spectroscopy provides insights into the crystalline structures within the cement matrix. UV-Vis spectroscopy is particularly useful for detecting organic compounds and possible contaminants. These techniques are vital under severe environmental conditions, where they can help identify the degradation products and mechanisms affecting the longevity and stability of concrete structures (Provis and Bernal 2014).
