Increasing the Corrosion Resistance and Durability of Geopolymer Concrete Structures of Agricultural Buildings Operating in Specific Conditions of Aggressive Environments of Livestock Buildings

Evgenii M. Shcherban' et al.

Summary: The relationship between the structure and properties of geopolymers in aggressive environments was studied, and the effectiveness of the developed composition and technological solutions was confirmed. Geopolymer concretes showed better performance than cement-based concretes in terms of strength loss and weight loss. Furthermore, raising the heat treatment temperature to 80 degrees Celsius increased the compressive strength of geopolymer binders.

Strength, Frost Resistance, and Resistance to Acid Attacks on Fiber-Reinforced Concrete for Industrial Floors and Road Pavements with Steel and Polypropylene Fibers

Zeljko Kos et al.

Summary: A comparison was made between steel and polypropylene fibers in fiber-reinforced concrete for industrial floors and road pavements, focusing on their impact on strength, frost resistance, abrasion, and corrosion resistance in an acidic environment. Steel fibers demonstrated a more significant increase in compressive strength, while both types of fibers equally improved flexural strength. Dispersed reinforcement reduced abrasion resistance and increased frost resistance, enhancing the durability of industrial floors and road pavements. The use of polypropylene fibers was found to be more cost-effective.

Alexey N. Beskopylny et al.

Summary: Currently, in civil engineering, the focus is on minimizing the cost and improving the efficiency of manufacturing and construction of hollow structures. This study aims to theoretically and experimentally explore the potential of using vibrocentrifugation technology and ground granulated blast-furnace slag to create improved variotropic structures of concrete.

Experimental Evaluation of the Concrete Damage and Pore Characteristics under Salt-Freezing Cycles

Jiguo Zhou et al.

Summary: This study investigates the damage law of cement-concrete under the effects of salt erosion and freeze-thaw cycles. Concrete specimens are subjected to quick salt freezing cycles using NaCl, NaHCO3, and Na2SO4 solutions to simulate saline soil conditions. Compressive strength, mass loss, and dynamic elastic modulus (DEM) are analyzed during the freeze-thaw cycles. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and scanning electronic microscopy are employed to study the microstructure changes in the concrete specimens. The results show significant increases in loss of compressive strength, mass, DEM, and NMR spectrum signal for concrete specimens undergoing salt freeze-thaw cycles. It is found that the number of internal cracks in the concrete structure increases due to the combined action of salt crystallization, moisture absorption, and freeze-thaw. Changes in the microscopic pore volume correlate with the macro mechanical properties of the concrete. The correlation coefficients between NMR spectrum changes and compressive strength changes suggest that these changes can be used as potential evaluation indexes for salt frozen damage to concrete structures.

Comprehensive Evaluation of the Sustainability of Waste Concrete towards Structural Concrete Application in Freeze-Thaw Environment

Da Wei et al.

Summary: This study comprehensively evaluates the sustainable application potential of waste concrete in a freeze-thaw environment, considering performance, environmental load, and economic benefit. It investigates the effects of freeze-thaw damage on the physical properties of recycled coarse aggregate concrete (RAC) and the mechanical and frost resistance of RAC under flexural stress. The study concludes that freeze-thaw damage gradually deteriorates the physical properties of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) and adversely affects the mechanical properties and frost resistance of RAC. The reuse of waste concrete after freeze-thaw failure requires higher economic input, higher environmental load, lower output efficiency, and sustainability.

A Study on the Cement Gel Formation Process during the Creation of Nanomodified High-Performance Concrete Based on Nanosilica

Alexey N. Beskopylny et al.

Summary: Nano-modified concrete is a science-intensive and developing area characterized by high-strength, high density, and improved structure. This study aims to obtain new theoretical knowledge and experimental-applied dependencies related to the composition-microstructure-properties ratio of high-strength concretes with a nano-modifying additive. Laser granulometry and electron microscopy are used as methods. The most rational mode of nano-modification for high-strength concretes is grinding microsilica into nanosilica within 12 hours. A complex nano-modifier containing nanosilica, superplasticizer, hyperplasticizer, and sodium sulfate was developed. The most effective combination of factors includes 4% nanosilica content, 1.4% superplasticizer additive content, 3% hyperplasticizer additive content, and a water-cement ratio of 0.33. The strength characteristics differ by 45% to 57% compared to other combinations.

Effect of Freeze-Thaw Cycles on Carbonation Behavior of Three Generations of Repeatedly Recycled Aggregate Concrete

Hui Liu et al.

Summary: The study showed that the carbonation depth of repeatedly recycled aggregate concrete (RRAC) subjected to freeze-thaw cycles is higher than that in non-freeze-thaw conditions, due to freeze-thaw damages creating porous and cracked internal structures. As replacement rate or recycling number increased, RRAC exhibited more severe freeze-thaw damage and poorer carbonation resistance, attributed to the deteriorating quality of recycled concrete aggregate (RRCA). However, a low replacement rate of RRCA may improve carbonation resistance durability of multiple recycling RAC.
