Binary mixtures composed of 80% high-density pellets and 20% granular bentonite at hygroscopic water content are currently considered for use in vertical sealing systems the deep longterm disposal radioactive wastes. By pouring dry components without compaction, mixturedisplays a density around 1.49 Mg/m3. However, these subjected to long-term hydrations from surrounding formations with possibi...

The setting of the late poured band is an effective measure to control differential settlement and stress concentration foundation. However, lag pouring time will also bring adverse effects construction process. Taking a large commercial complex as example, Midas GTS NX finite element software used for overall foundation modeling, collaborative calculation carried out by adjusting composite sch...

The goal of this paper is to yield insights into the forming, reinforcing, and pouring concrete buildings, focusing on design, functionality, failure, safety aspects. construction process has different moving parts along form–pour–strip cycle, authors aimed analyze information pertaining formwork rebar reasons for failures hardening concrete, various hazards jobsites, safe work practices. inten...
