Effect of Antifreeze Admixtures on Cold Weather Concrete

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...

Production of High Performance Concrete Using Admixtures

In this study, it is aimed that production of high performance concrete using admixtures. The admixture is used to resist against to freezing of concrete, and concrete (C20) is produced, and cured in water. 8 samples are tested in pressure, and mean stress is determined as 28 MPa. Remaining two samples are tested with image processing technique, and determined that sample which containing an ad...

Mix Design Development for Pervious Concrete In Cold Weather Climates

Portland cement pervious concrete (PCPC) is increasingly being used in the United States in sidewalks and parking lots due to its benefits in reducing the amount of runoff water and improving water quality. In the United States, PCPC typically has high porosity and low strength, which has resulted in limited use of pervious concrete in hard wet freeze environments (i.e., the Midwest and Northea...

Use of Mineral Admixtures in Concrete

effect of oral presentation on development of l2 learners grammar

this experimental study has been conducted to test the effect of oral presentation on the development of l2 learners grammar. but this oral presentation is not merely a deductive instruction of grammatical points, in this presentation two hypotheses of krashen (input and low filter hypotheses), stevicks viewpoints on grammar explanation and correction and widdowsons opinion on limited use of l1...

Influence of environmental temperatures on the concrete compressive strength: simulation of hot and cold weather conditions

This work has as objective to study the influence of mixing hour in the concrete properties such as workability and compressive strength in hot and cold weather conditions from an industrially applied point of view. The foremost studied variable was the concrete mixing hour, having used five mixing hours for every weather conditions. For each mixing hour, were carried out three concrete batches...
