The use of roller compacted concrete (R.C.C) without conventional cover in important hydraulic structures is investigated through laboratory observation of abrasion phenomena sujected to high velocity flow and floating particles. The main parameters affecting abrasion and erosion resistance of R.C.C. studied in the present study include: "Mixed Hydraulic&#10&#10Mean Radius" (which collectively ...

There are different test methods to determine the abrasion resistance of concrete subjected to number of various types of abrasion. There are number of different tests used in various countries and it is clear that there is no single test that adequately measures the abrasion resistance of concrete under all conditions. This paper covers the summary and classification of the various abrasion te...

This investigation was performed to establish the effects of the source and amount of fly ash on abrasion resistance of concrete. A reference concrete was proportioned to have a 28day age strength of 41 MPa. Three sources of Class C fly ash were used in this research. From each source, three levels of fly ash to total cementitious materials content (40, 50, and 60%) were used in producing the c...

The abrasion resistance of coated glass surfaces is an important parameter for judging lifetime performance, but practical testing procedures remain overly simplistic and do often not allow for direct conclusions on real-world degradation. Here, we combine quantitative two-dimensional image analysis and mechanical abrasion into a facile tool for probing the abrasion resistance of anti-reflectiv...

This research was conducted to evaluate abrasion resistance of high-volume fly ash concrete. A reference plain portland cement concrete was proportioned to obtain 28day strength of 41 MPa. Concrete mixtures were also proportioned to have two levels of cement replacements (50 and 70%) with an ASTM Class C fly ash. Abrasion tests were carried out using the rotating cutter method as per ASTM C-944...

This study investigates preparation of melamine formaldehyde / montmorillonite nanocomposite coatings and evaluates its abrasion resistance property as a new material for wood based panel products. The ultrasonicated MF resin/clay blends with different clay loadings were applied in the form of coatings to the saturated decorative paper to prepare thermoset prepregs. Morphology and structure of ...

An important factor in material quality is the time duration that materials are used (known as substance lifetime). Lifetime is a function of several factors, and among them wearing and abrasion resistances are more important than the other aspects. In addition, to the physical and mechanical properties, abrasion has a significant effect on the textiles appearance. This phenomenon considerably ...

an experimental program was carried out to investigate the behavior of steel, fiber reinforced concrete (sfrc) under abrasion and cycles of freeze and them. compression and flexural tests were also performed in order to reach a comprehensive conclusion of the response. in total, over 200 specimens were tested the test variables included two concrete strength., (i. e., 28 mpa as normal strength ...
