Analysis of Heat Transfer Phenomena inside Concrete Hollow Blocks
Journal of Building Material Science, 2022 During both hot and cold seasons, masonry walls play an important role in the thermal performance between the interior and the exterior of occupied spaces. It is thus essential to analyze the thermal behavior at the hollow block’s level in order to better understand the temperature and heat flux distribution in its structure and potentially limit as ...

A New Design-Oriented Model of Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer-Reinforced Hollow Concrete Columns [PDF]
, 2020 Hollow concrete columns (HCCs) reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars and spirals are considered an effective design solution for bridge piers, electric poles, and ground piles because they use less material and maximize the strength ...

Investigative Study on the Properties of Hollow Concrete Blocks
International Journal of Innovative Research in Computer Science & Technology, 2022 The utilization of workmanship structures is as yet broad all through the world. Hollow concrete blocks have supplanted customary bricks in late development as a result of the upsides of higher bearing limit, farmland insurance, and energy protection [1].

Investigation of the mechanical and thermal performances of concrete hollow blocks [PDF]
SN Applied Sciences, 2020 In order to improve the thermal performance of external masonry walls, the impact of the blocks’ internal configuration on both their mechanical strength and thermal properties is numerically investigated. Ten different configurations with approximatively similar void ratios of about 40% (38.25–40.5%) and same external dimensions (40 cm × 20 cm × 10 cm)
