Research using marble powder as a partial replacement of cement in concrete has gained a lot of attention recently. In this paper,the effect of dried marble powder on particle packing of concrete has been demonstrated. ...

This paper deals with the effect of accelerated carbonation on mechanical properties and durability of unreinforced concrete. Concrete with water binder ratios of 0.35, 0.50 and 0.65 were cast and kept in accelerated ...

Accelerated carbonation of plain cement concrete and concrete with fly-ash replacing cement partially, is discussed in the present paper. Mechanical properties such as compressive strength, flexural strength, modulus of ...

Concrete is the most widely used construction material in the world. This popularity of concrete carries with it an immense environmental cost. Billions of tons of natural materials are mined and processed each year to be ...

This study deals with the effect of carbonation on the mechanical properties such as compressive strength, flexural strength and durability like depth of carbonation and volume of permeable voids of the concrete cast using ...

An effective design technique for symmetrical coupled shear walls is presented in this paper. The proposed formulation, including assumptions and steps with mathematical formulation, has been elaborated to arrive at the ...

Shear wall systems are among the most commonly used lateral-load resisting systems in high-rise buildings. Shear walls have very high in-plane stiffness and strength, which can be used to simultaneously resist large ...

Life cycle assessment (LCA) of novel fired clay bricks with synergistic co-valorization of nickel-chrome plating sludge (NCPS) and fly ash (FA) is reported. 0%, 20%, and 37.5% FA was added to improve sludge-deteriorated ...

Based on the experimental evaluation of blended cement concretes, its vulnerability to the potential carbonation threats have been discussed in this paper. Water binder ratios of 0.35, 0.50, and 0.65 have been adopted to ...

Nonlinear bending analysis of a sandwich plate with randomly distributed carbon nanotube and carbon fiber-reinforced composite (RD-CNTCFRC) face sheets and functionally graded (FG) porous core subjected to transverse patch ...
