The paper focuses on quantifying of vacuum and heat influence as unavoidable effects that appear during preparation and in-situ monitoring of micromechanical performance of cement pastes. Experimental tests at micrometer scale employ microscopic techniques of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Focused Ion Beam (FIB). High vacuum is applied to samples during SEM-FIB procedures causing dessication and densification of primary cement paste constituents, the CSH gels. The effect of local heating due to ionic interactions during FIB milling is studied by means of micromechanical measurements on micro-beams and finite element (FE) numerical model. The paper also reports micromechanical response received by low energy milling for which microstructural changes due to increased temperature are restricted to very small volumes and can be assumed to be negligible with respect to the micro-beam dimensions.
