Effect of pH Solutions on Using Waste Marble powder to Enhance Mortar Compressive Strength

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

Influence of Pore Structure on Compressive Strength of Cement Mortar

This paper describes an experimental investigation into the pore structure of cement mortar using mercury porosimeter. Ordinary Portland cement, manufactured sand, and natural sand were used. The porosity of the manufactured sand mortar is higher than that of natural sand at the same mix proportion; on the contrary, the probable pore size and threshold radius of manufactured sand mortar are fin...

Effect of using selected industrial waste on compressive and flexural strength of concrete

The main idea of the presented work is to examine the effect of adding industrial waste in the form of Gray Cast iron (GCI) and Ductile Cast Iron (DCI) from the casting industry in the concrete mix. GCI and DCI turnings were used as a partial replacement material for the usual fine aggregates to study the effect on compressive strength and flexural strength of the mix. Partial replacement of fi...

Experimental Study on Compressive Strength of Brick Using Natural Fibres

Despite the use of modern materials, clay bricks are reasonably preferable materials nowadays. However, the moo fetched and flexibility of clay bricks are not related with tall natural and feasible values, particularly with regard to crude fabric sources and fabricating processes. Agricultural world is growing fast, with increased rural arrive development and land cultivation leading to massive...
