PROPERTIES OF ALKALI-ACTIVATED FLY ASH CONCRETE BLENDED WITH SLAG

Effects of alkali addition on the mechanical properties and durability of concrete

Increasing the concrete alkali content from 0.6% to 1.25% of Na2Oe of the cement mass by adding NaOH to the mixture water has harmful effects on most mechanical properties (compressive, splitting, direct tensile, and flexure strengths) of concrete made with a water-tocement (w/c) ratio of 0.41 and limestone aggregates not susceptible to alkali–silica reaction (ASR), however not on the elasticit...

determination of some physical and mechanical properties red bean

چکیده: در این تحقیق، برخی خواص فیزیکی و مکانیکی لوبیا قرمز به-صورت تابعی از محتوی رطوبت بررسی شد. نتایج نشان داد که رطوبت بر خواص فیزیکی لوبیا قرمز شامل طول، عرض، ضخامت، قطر متوسط هندسی، قطر متوسط حسابی، سطح تصویر شده، حجم، چگالی توده، تخلخل، وزن هزار دانه و زاویه ی استقرار استاتیکی در سطح احتمال 1 درصد اثر معنی داری دارد. به طوری که با افزایش رطوبت از 54/7 به 12 درصد بر پایه خشک طول، عرض، ضخام...

Mechanical Properties and Eco-Efficiency of Steel Fiber Reinforced Alkali-Activated Slag Concrete

Conventional concrete production that uses ordinary Portland cement (OPC) as a binder seems unsustainable due to its high energy consumption, natural resource exhaustion and huge carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions. To transform the conventional process of concrete production to a more sustainable process, the replacement of high energy-consumptive PC with new binders such as fly ash and alkali-acti...

Estimation of mechanical and durability properties of self-compacting concrete with fibers using ultrasonic pulse velocity

In this research, the performance of ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) in concrete is examined as a nondestructive experiment in order to estimate mechanical (compressive and tensile strength) and durability (water absorption) properties of fiber-reinforced self-compacted concrete For this purpose 11 mixture designs containing 3 types of fibers (steel: 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 percent by volume, Pol...
