The ingress of chlorides in concrete under compressive or tensile loads [PDF]
One common aggressive mechanism acting in reinforced concrete is chloride attack which induces steel corrosion. Although it has mostly been studied and analyzed separately it has been observed that loads acting on concrete may modify the deteriorating ...

Cold Sintering of Calcite: A Low‐Temperature Method for the Fabrication of Artificial Marble
Comparison of the hardness of cold and conventionally sintered calcite with artificial marble. ABSTRACT This study presents a novel approach for the low‐temperature fabrication of dense calcite (CaCO3) without the use of a carbon dioxide (CO2) atmosphere.

Polycarboxylate/nanosilica-modified quaternary cement formulations – enhancements and limitations [PDF]
The effect of polycarboxylate/nanosilica (nS) particles in quaternary cement formulations comprising Portland cement (PC), limestone powder (LS) and fly ash (FA) was investigated for the first time. The reference formulation contained 60% PC, 20% LS and 20% FA by mass of binder in an effort to minimise clinker and maximise the other constituents.

Enhancing printability of 3D printed concrete by using metakaolin and silica fume
Abstract This study investigates the effects of incorporating metakaolin (MK) and silica fume (SF) on the fresh and hardened properties of 3D printed concrete (3DPC). Five mix designs were prepared with MK replacement levels of 0%, 10%, 12.5%, and 15%, along with one mix containing 10% MK and 5% SF.

Experimental study on influence of plasticizer on fluidity of convection- solidified silt
Compared with the traditional backfill materials, the performance-controlled fluidized solidified (PCFS) backfill materials are characterized by high flow state and self-compaction, which can effectively avoid engineering problems caused by insufficient ...

Abstract Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), increasingly utilized in cement‐bound materials, offer improved material properties and enhanced sustainability due to their bio‐based origin. Nanosilica (NS), known for its high reactivity and refinement of cement microstructure, also significantly impacts cement performance.

Processed bottom ash for replacing fine aggregate in making high-volume fly ash concrete [PDF]
Bottom ash is a coal plant by-product that is abundant and underutilized. There is the potential use of bottom ash as a fine aggregate replacement in concrete mixtures; however, the problems of water absorption and uniformity of quality of the material ...
