Foam Concrete Precast Elements in Composite Concrete-GFRP Plate Girders
This paper is focused on using foam concrete as structural element in polymer-concrete composite plate girders. Trial mixes of foam concrete and different proportions of foam agent were considered to obtain the suitable mix that can be used as structural element in composite girders system. Details of the experimental investigations on foam concrete precast slabs and polymer-concrete composite ...
متن کاملElastic composite materials having a negative stiffness phase can be stable.
We prove that composite materials containing an isotropic phase having negative bulk and Young's moduli (hence being unstable by itself) can be stable overall, under merely applied traction boundary conditions, if the stable encapsulating phase is sufficiently stiff. We derive specific quantitative requirements on the elastic moduli of the constituent materials that ensure composite stability f...
متن کاملConcrete as a Green Building Material
Concrete is by far the most widely used construction material worldwide. Its huge popularity is the result of a number of well-known advantages, such as low cost, general availability, and wide applicability. But this popularity of concrete also carries with it a great environmental cost. The billions of tons of natural materials mined and processed each year, by their sheer volume, are bound t...
متن کاملUpscaling Cement Paste Microstructure to Obtain the Fracture, Shear, and Elastic Concrete Mechanical LDPM Parameters
Modeling the complex behavior of concrete for a specific mixture is a challenging task, as it requires bridging the cement scale and the concrete scale. We describe a multiscale analysis procedure for the modeling of concrete structures, in which material properties at the macro scale are evaluated based on lower scales. Concrete may be viewed over a range of scale sizes, from the atomic scale ...
متن کاملthe 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...
