Ecological High Performance Concrete

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2017
Abstract In this paper the authors present the possibility to utilize two waste materials to produce high performance concrete (HPC). To prepare the mixes, Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) of 4-16 mm fraction and Class F fly ash (from coal burning power plant) were used.

Ground Glass Pozzolan in Conventional, High, and Ultra-High Performance Concrete

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Ground-glass pozzolan (G) obtained by grinding the mixed-waste glass to same fineness of cement can act as a supplementary-cementitious material (SCM), given that it is an amorphous and a pozzolanic material.

High performance concrete applied to storage system buildings at low temperatures

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2008
According to some estimates, world's population growth is expected about 50% over the next 50 years. Thus, one of the greatest challenges faced by Engineering is to find effective options to food storage and conservation.

High Performance Concrete (HPC)

open access: yes, 2007
Normal Strength Concrete (NSC) is heavy and lacks the required workability in some large concrete structures, such as high-rise buildings, bridges, and structures under severe exposure conditions. High Performance Concrete (HPC) is the latest development in concrete.

Impact of Rubber Content on Performance of Ultra-High-Performance Rubberised Concrete (UHPRuC)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials
This study investigated the effect of rubber content on the mechanical characteristics of ultra-high-performance rubberised concrete (UHPRuC). The results revealed a distinctive non-linear decrease in the dry density of UHPRuC as the rubber content ...

Investigation of the existence of self compacting properties in high performance concrete through experimental tests

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Exatas e Tecnológicas, 2007
The self compacting concrete is characterized by its capacity to flow inside the formwork filling it exclusively by the force of the gravity with adequate cohesion and viscosity in such a way that segregation does not occur.

High temperature performance of recycled fine concrete

open access: yesLow-Carbon Materials and Green Construction
The objective of this study is to explore the physical and mechanical behaviour of concretes comprising four different ratios of recycled fine (RF), namely (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) along with that of a reference concrete (Cref-0%), under three different ...
