Mechanical Properties of Aeolian Sand Concrete made from Alkali-Treated Aeolian Sand and Zeolite Powder [PDF]
This study utilises NaOH to treat composite cementitious materials containing aeolian sand and zeolite powders, which were used to replace 50% of the cement in aeolian-sand concrete (ASC). The mechanical properties of treated ASC considerably improved, especially when the NaOH dosage was 4% by mass. After curing this sample (denoted as AAZC-4) for 28 d,

Impermeability and Durability of Self-Compacting Concrete Prepared with Aeolian Sand and Recycled Coarse Aggregate [PDF]
Self-compacting concrete has seen extensive application in both engineering and construction. In order to save building resources, aeolian sand—recycled coarse aggregate self-compacting concrete (ARSCC) is created by partially substituting recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) and aeolian sand (AS) for natural coarse aggregates.

Frost Durability of Self-Compacting Concrete Prepared with Aeolian Sand and Recycled Coarse Aggregate [PDF]
Aeolian sand (AS) and recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) can be reasonably utilized as green materials for concrete modification. The paucity of natural sand and gravel in the construction industry is anticipated to be remedied by the use of these two eco-friendly concrete ingredients. This is incredibly important for environmental protection.

The Preparation and Properties of Ultra-High-Performance Concrete with Aeolian Sand: A Lab Study on the Effect of the Curing Method [PDF]
The utilization of aeolian sand (AS) as a substitute for river sand (RS) in ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) offers a sustainable solution to address natural sand resource shortages while enhancing AS utilization. This study systematically evaluates the influence of AS content (0–100% RS replacement by mass) on the workability, mechanical ...
