Paint Booth Waste as an Alternative Aggregate for the Production of Interlocking Concrete Blocks
AbstractInadequate disposal of hazardous waste results risks to the environment and human health. Although the use of hazardous waste in new processes and/or products has received limited attention in the literature, there is still significant potential to be investigated.

Mesoscopic Fracture Model of Coarse Aggregate Interlocking Concrete
The skeleton formed by coarse aggregate has an important influence on the macroscopic mechanical properties of concrete, especially the fracture properties. Based on mesomechanics and fracture mechanics, this paper conducts theoretical simulations and experimental studies on the mechanical and fracture properties of coarse aggregate interlocking ...

Application of fibre composite grids as reinforcement of foamed PC and GP concrete [PDF]
Cellular concretes cannot be reinforced as easily as traditional ones. Generally porous materials do not ensure sufficient bond of reinforcement; additionally, due to limited amount of aggregate, interlock between aggregate particles and reinforcement ...
