Study on diffusion of oxygen in coral concrete under different preloads

Chenggong Cai et al.

Summary: Increasing load leads to higher damage and more microcracks in coral concrete, as well as an increase in oxygen transmission rate and final oxygen diffusion coefficient. Coral concrete has a higher oxygen diffusion coefficient than mortar specimens, and its oxygen diffusion follows an exponential rate law. Numerical simulations show good correlation with experimental results, validating the accuracy of the established model.

Behavior of Concrete Reinforced with Date Palm Fibers

Fadi Althoey et al.

Summary: Researchers have investigated the use of date palm tree waste as a natural fiber alternative for steel and polypropylene fibers in concrete. The study found that date palm fibers improved the mechanical properties of high-strength concrete and outperformed traditional fibers in terms of density, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and water permeability. This suggests that date palm fibers could be used to enhance the performance of structural elements in the construction industry.

An Experimental Study on Non-Destructive Evaluation of the Mechanical Characteristics of a Sustainable Concrete Incorporating Industrial Waste

Tariq Umar et al.

Summary: This study investigates the use of non-destructive mechanisms to assess the compressive strength of concrete and the influence of industrial waste. The results suggest that incorporating 10% coal bottom ash and waste glass sludge can improve the porosity of concrete specimens, and using 15% coal bottom ash and 10% waste glass sludge as cementitious additive and cement replacement has the potential to significantly increase the strength of concrete.

Influence of Marble Powder and Polypropylene Fibers on the Strength and Durability Properties of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC)

Atizaz Ali et al.

Summary: The effect of polypropylene fiber reinforced self-compacting concrete (SCC) on its fresh and hardened stage properties and durability behavior were investigated. The study found that an increase in fiber content resulted in decreased workability of SCC, although it performed well at higher marble dosages. The addition of fibers had little impact on compressive strength and water permeability, but improved both split tensile strength and flexural strength. The addition of marble powder showed a synergistic effect with polypropylene fibers. The response surface technique was used to optimize the substitution of polypropylene fibers and marble powder.

An Experimental Investigation and Computer Modeling of Direct Tension Pullout Test of Reinforced Concrete Cylinder

Nadeem Abbas et al.

Summary: Executing the obligation of strengthened concrete is crucial in investigating load transfers between concrete and reinforcing bars. This study proposed a prediction model for the bond stress-slip relationship between steel bars and concrete, which showed good agreement with test results. The findings contribute to more accurate bond properties for structural analysis and design.

Flexural strength of silica fume, fly ash, and metakaolin of hardened cement paste after exposure to elevated temperatures

Nabil Abdelmelek et al.

Summary: The study shows that pozzolanic materials significantly enhance the flexural properties of hardened cement paste after exposure to elevated temperatures, with metakaolin showing better heat endurance compared to silica fume and fly ash. High replacements of silica fume are prone to spalling, while low CaO content, high grinding fineness, and physical morphology of pozzolanic materials make them effective for HCP after elevated temperature exposure.

Effect of crumb rubber on the punching shear behaviour of reinforced concrete slabs with openings

Mahmoud Elsayed et al.

Summary: The study found that incorporating crumb rubber into concrete has a negative effect on its mechanical properties, although using up to 5% CR can slightly reduce compressive, tensile, and flexural strength of rubberised concrete. The punching shear strength and stiffness of rubberised concrete slabs decrease with increasing CR, but toughness increases with 5% CR content and then declines. Additionally, openings in flat slabs adjacent to columns result in a significant reduction in punching shear strength, with the strength decreasing as the opening size increases. The accuracy of design code equations in predicting the punching strength of rubberised concrete slabs with or without openings is evaluated and compared with experimental results.

Effect of Carbon Black and Hybrid Steel-Polypropylene Fiber on the Mechanical and Self-Sensing Characteristics of Concrete Considering Different Coarse Aggregates' Sizes

Shakeel Ahmed et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of combining different materials on the post-cracking behavior of conductive concrete, with a focus on the impact of macro fibers on toughness parameters and energy absorption capacity. The results showed that the hybrid use of fibrous and filler materials improved the post-cracking behavior and self-sensing ability of reinforced concrete.
