Explorations into the Expanded Clay Aggregate Concrete Bricks Strength Properties

International Journal of Innovative Research in Engineering & Management, 2022
This experiment aims to examine the strength characteristics of structural light weight concrete generated by substituting light weight aggregates like Cinder (class-F) and ECA for coarse aggregate in M30 grade concrete. Lightweight concrete is created from cinder and ECA, with cement and coarse aggregate substituted at 40%, 50%, 60%, and 100%. The mix

Critical Discourse Analysis in Corporate Reports: Legitimation Strategies in the Context of Environmental Controversies

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the use of environmental disclosure as a strategic tool to manage legitimacy crises in a mining company, adopting critical discourse analysis (CDA) as the main methodology. Focusing on a case of environmental disaster, this research reveals how corporate narratives can be manipulated to minimize responsibility and reinforce

Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

Prestress loss of post-tensioned clay diaphragm and fin brickwork [PDF]

, 1994
Unlike calcium silicate and concrete block masonry which undergo shrinkage with time, clay brickwork has been known to expand instead. Expansion of brick units in prestressed masonry will cause an increase in the prestressing force instead of prestress ...
