an application of aerated concret (foam concrete) was experimentally studied. in this study the compressive strength of the proposed concrete was measured the effect of parameters such as aggregate size of broken stone, quantity of cement and various densities were exprementally studies, and the best mixture was select.these prepared mixtures are practically useful to optimize the consumption o...

in this work, we studied the effect of carboxylic acid on the rheological properties of a high-alumina cement mortar (ch45) produced by the algerian firm refractal.the investigated properties are setting time, water consumption, electrical conductivity, ph, density and the compressive strength. the results show a setting time of about 200 min for the acid free, 180 min with 0.1 % of carboxylic ...

statement of the problem : in clinical situations, calcium-enriched mixture (cem) comes into direct contact or even mixes with blood during or after placement. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of blood contamination on the compressive strength of cem. materials and method: three experimental groups were included in this study. in the first group, cem was mixed with dist...

Concrete is one of the most widely used construction material in today’s world. Cement is one of the essential constituents of the concrete. Environmental issues are also playing a vital role in today’s world, the production of cement one of the major constituent of concrete leads to release the of a significant amount of carbon dioxide a greenhouse gas contributing 7% of greenhouse gas emissio...

Some Problems on High Strength Concrete for Prestressing by Kanji YAMAZAKI (Research Laboratory of Nihon Cement Co., Ltd., Tokyo) This paper describes some problems on high strength concrete studied in our laboratory in recent years. Summary of this report is as follows: (1) In order to make high strength concrete for prestressing, it is necessary to lower the water-cement ratio. But, in the ca...

Nowadays total joint replacements are widely used in the world, so in average 800,000 joint surgeries are done yearly only in Europe and North America. However implant loosening is and remains as the major issue of all implant failures and therefore causes revision surgery procedures. Studies and experiments have identified poor fixation of implants most likely is the main cause of long term im...
