(a) Pore size distribution for OPC with w/c = 0.6 and w/c = 0.25 (data adopted from Figure 10(a) in [15], where the averaged data points are selected to represent the approximate pore size distribution profiles). (b) Comparison of pore size distribution of typical high w/c OPC and low w/c OPC and their corresponding capillary water states.
