Effects of freeze-thaw cycling on the engineering properties of vegetation concrete

Journal of Environmental Management, 2023
Vegetation concrete has been widely applied for the ecological restoration of bare steep slopes in short-term frozen and non-frozen soil regions in China. However, field experiments conducted in seasonally frozen soil regions have revealed decreases in the bulk density, nutrient content and vegetation coverage. This study aimed to clarify the evolution

Experimental study on the vegetation characteristics of biochar-modified vegetation concrete

Construction and Building Materials, 2019
Abstract Vegetation concrete is an effective material to beautify the landscape, reduce pollution and protect the environment. To further improve the plant compatibility of vegetation concrete, this paper recommends an improved method of adding biochar particles to vegetation concrete.

Development of a neutral cementitious material to promote vegetation concrete

Construction and Building Materials, 2016
Abstract To develop a neutral binder for vegetation concrete, various cementitious materials based on alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate (α-CH) were compositionally examined as follows: 25% and 50% of the α-CH content were partially replaced by a mineral admixture; and 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% were replaced by ordinary portland cement (OPC).

Development of vegetation concrete technology for slope protection and greening

Construction and Building Materials, 2018
Abstract Slope vegetation clearing for urban development purposes often leaves the slope prone to surface erosion prior to revegetation establishment. This study is in response to the requirement of immediate slope protection and revegetation. As no research in Australia exists on vegetation concrete technology, this paper analyses and presents the ...

Gradation characteristic analysis of vegetation‐type porous concrete

Materialwissenschaft Und Werkstofftechnik, 2019
AbstractPorosity acts as a key role in realizing the planting function of vegetation‐type porous concrete. However, the porosity depends on the aggregate gradation characteristic. Then, compared with the gradation characteristic of normal concrete, the gradation characteristic of vegetation‐type porous concrete is discussed.

Effects of concrete content on seed germination and seedling establishment in vegetation concrete matrix in slope restoration

Ecological Engineering, 2013
Abstract The Vegetation Concrete Base Spraying technique (VCBS) is an ecological slope restoration technique to strengthen slope stability and restore slope vegetation in the meantime. It restores vegetation on slopes by spreading a mix of concrete, greening additives, mulching materials and plant seeds on to slope surfaces.
