The Effect of Rebar Embedment and CFRP Confinement on the Compressive Strength of Low-Strength Concrete

open access: yesInternational Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2022
Low-strength concrete (LSC) elements are prone to several seismic and static loads and are one of the priorities to be considered for FRP strengthening.

The impact of water content and ionic diffusion on the uniaxial compressive strength of shale

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Petroleum, 2013
Experimental data showed that water content has a profound influence on the uniaxial compressive strength of shale. Testing has shown a great decrease in the uniaxial compressive strength as the water content increases.

Compressive strength prediction model of lightweight high-strength concrete

open access: yesMagazine of Civil Engineering, 2022
A reasonable prediction of the compressive strength of lightweight high-strength concrete is an important basis for determining concrete strength. Through cluster analysis, the key factors affecting the compressive strength of lightweight high-strength ...

Damage-cluster distributions and size effect on strength in compressive failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate compressive failure of heterogeneous materials on the basis of a continuous progressive damage model. The model explicitely accounts for tensile and shear local damage and reproduces the main features of compressive failure of brittle ...

Adapting Artificial Intelligence to Improve In Situ Concrete Compressive Strength Estimations in Rebound Hammer Tests

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2020
Compressive strength is probably one the most crucial properties of concrete material. For existing structures, core samples are drilled and tested to obtain the concrete compressive strength.

The Effect of Capping Condition on the Compressive Strength of Concrete Hollow Blocks [PDF]

open access: yesمجلة جامعة النجاح للأبحاث العلوم الطبيعية, 2003
One of the quality control tests done on the concrete hollow blocks is the compressive strength. In order to simulate in situ strength of the concrete blocks, capping technique was used in order to achieve smooth perpendicular surface for compressive ...

Effect of work-hardening on the relationship between compressive strength and hardness of quenched medium carbon steel

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu
Since it is known that tensile strength and hardness are roughly proportional, a hardness test is often used as a simple and substitute test. However, it has been reported that the proportional relationship between tensile strength and hardness is broken

Effect of Coarse Aggregate Sizes and Replacement Levels on the Strength of Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) Concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The maximum coarse aggregate size used in concrete can impact on its strength. An investigation of the effect of coarse aggregate size and replacement level of granite with palm kernel shell (PKS) on the compressive and tensile strengths of PKS concrete ...
