A Study on Mechanical and Durability Properties of High Performance Concrete Containing Metakaolin and Steel Fibre- Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Various papers based on high performance concrete (HPC) and their behaviour were studied. HPC’s containing different mineral as well as chemical admixtures exhibits different properties in fresh as well as hardened states. Several factors determine these properties like: type of mineral as well as chemical admixture, type of aggregates, water-cement ratio, curing method etc. Each paper takes into account various factors as listed above, and the relation to concrete properties are found out. This review paper contains test results on HPC with metakaolin, silica fume, with and without fibres (steel, glass, polypropylene) etc.

PREDICTION OF COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH AND DURABILITY OF HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE BY ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS
Neural networks have recently been widely used to model some of the human activities in many areas of civil engineering applications. In the present paper, artificial neural networks (ANN) for predicting compressive strength of cubes and durability of concrete containing metakaolin with fly ash and silica fume with fly ash are developed at the age of 3, 7, 28, 56 and 90 days. For building these...

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...
متن کاملHybrid Fiber Reinforced Concrete Containing Pumice and Metakaolin
Fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) has been widely used due to its advantages over plain concrete such as high energy absorption, post cracking behaviour, flexural and impact strength and arresting shrinkage cracks. But there is a weak zone between fibers and paste in fiber reinforced concretes and this weak zone is full of porosity, especially in hybrid fiber reinforced concretes. So it is necess...

This study presents the effect of incorporating metakaolin (MK) on the mechanical and durability properties of high strength concrete for a constantwater/binder ratio of 0.3.MKmixtureswith cement replacement of 5, 10 and15 %weredesigned for target strength and slump of 90 MPa and 100 ± 25 mm. From the results, it was observed that 10 % replacement level was the optimum level in terms of compres...
متن کاملThe Influence of Graphene Oxide on Mechanical Properties and Durability Increase of Concrete Pavement
Herein, the performance of graphene oxide (GO) in improving mechanical properties and subsequently reducing the permeability of cement composites used in concrete pavement, is studied. A polycarboxylate superplasticizer was used to improve the dispersion of GO flakes in the cement. The mechanical strength of graphene-cement nanocomposites containing 0.1–2 wt% GO and 0.5 wt% superplasticizer was...
