Adjusted Density High-strength Concrete Using Expanded Polystyrene Beads
This paper reports the results of an experimental investigation into the effects of incorporating varying amounts of expanded polystyrene beads on the engineering properties of high-strength concrete. It was observed that a density reduction of 8.3% caused compressive strength, tensile strength and modulus of elasticity to reduce by 48%, 39% and 15%, respectively. Drying shrinkage was marginall...
متن کاملCockle Shell: a Potential Partial Coarse Aggregate Replacement in Concrete
Effort towards preserving natural coarse aggregate for future generation and reducing cockle shell waste originating from the fisheries industry has initiated studies on possibility of integrating this waste in concrete production. This paper presents the result on the workability and compressive strength of concrete containing various percentage of cockle shell content as partial coarse aggreg...
متن کاملStudy on Strength & Durability of Concrete by Partial Replacement of Fine & Coarse Aggregates using Marble, Granite & Spent Fire Brick Waste
Concrete is the most undisputable and indispensable material being used in infrastructure development throughout the world. The objective of this paper is to utilize marble, granite and Spent Fire Brick waste of different sizes in the manufacturing of concrete bricks, with partial replacement of conventional coarse and fine aggregates with Marble, Granite and Spent Fire Brick waste content up t...
متن کاملuse of expanded polystyrene (eps) and shredded waste polystyrene (swap) beads for control of mosquitoes
background: mosquitoes transmit several diseases to human. there are several measures for control of larvae. as part of integrated vector management (ivm) program, the utility of floating layers of polystyrene beads (eps) is a potential alternative in habitats of mosquito larva. eps beads prevent oviposition of mosquito as well as killing the immature stages by forming a tick layer on the w...
