Flexural Strength and Ductility Improvement of NSC beams
In order to calculate the flexural strength of normal-strength concrete (NSC) beams, the nonlinear actual concrete stress distribution within the compression zone is normally replaced by an equivalent rectangular stress block, with two coefficients of α and β to regulate the intensity and depth of the equivalent stress respectively. For NSC beams design, α and β are usually assumed constant as ...
متن کاملModeling of Compressive Strength for Self-Consolidating High-Strength Concrete Incorporating Palm Oil Fuel Ash
Modeling is a very useful method for the performance prediction of concrete. Most of the models available in literature are related to the compressive strength because it is a major mechanical property used in concrete design. Many attempts were taken to develop suitable mathematical models for the prediction of compressive strength of different concretes, but not for self-consolidating high-st...
متن کاملA Study on Behaviour of Normal Strength Concrete and High Strength Concrete Subjected to Elevated Temperatures
Cement concrete is a complex mixture of different materials. Behaviour of concrete depends on its mix proportions and constituents when it is subjected to elevated temperatures. Principal effects due to elevated temperatures are loss in compressive strength, loss in weight or mass, change in colour and spall of concrete. The experimental results of normal concrete and high strength concrete sub...
متن کاملStrength Development of High-Strength Ductile Concrete Incorporating Metakaolin and PVA Fibers
The mechanical properties of high-strength ductile concrete (HSDC) have been investigated using Metakaolin (MK) as the cement replacing material and PVA fibers. Total twenty-seven (27) mixes of concrete have been examined with varying content of MK and PVA fibers. It has been found that the coarser type PVA fibers provide strengths competitive to control or higher than control. Concrete with co...
متن کاملMathematical Model for Predicting Stress-Strain Behaviour of Bacterial Concrete
Bacillus subtilus, a mineral precipitating microorganism, when introduced into concrete produces calcium carbonate crystals which seals the micro cracks and pores in the concrete. This process imparts high strength and durability to bacteria treated concrete along with enhancement in other mechanical properties. In order to study one such mechanical property, the stress-strain behavior of bacte...
