Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Fiber-Reinforced Alkali-Activated Composites: Design, Mechanical Properties, and Durability covers various fiber types and their usage as a sustainable material as well as their influence on mechanical properties and behavior, including compressive strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, and impact and bond resistance. Their durability in different environments (seawater, magnesium sulphate, sulphuric acid, elevated temperature, corrosive) is also discussed. The book also outlines a variety of mix design and curing regimes for alkali-activated composites. The additive manufacturing of these composites is also covered. Different types of fiber-reinforced alkali-activated composites discussed include steel fiber-reinforced, carbon fiber-reinforced, natural fiber-reinforced, synthetic fiber-reinforced, and others. - Discusses different fiber types and their effects on alkali-activated composite materials - Includes coverage of compressive strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, impact and bond resistance, and more - Investigates the durability of these materials, studying how they perform in seawater, elevated temperature environments, and under sulphuric acid attacks - Covers the shrinkage resistance, permeability and corrosion performance of these materials

Download or read book A Field Investigation of Concrete Patches Containing Pyrament Blended Concrete written by Hamdi Celik Ozyildirim and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During roadway repairs, state highway officials try to minimize lane closure times. This reduces inconvenience to travelers, reduces traffic control needs, and helps minimize work zone accidents. For rapid repairs, materials that provide high early strength are needed. Pyrament blended cement (PBC) is marketed to produce concretes having a high early strength and long-term durability in varying climatic conditions. Concretes containing PBC were placed in full-depth patches in August 1989 and March 1990 under different temperature conditions. Type III cement concretes were used as controls in patches placed during August only, since specifications did not permit their use when the ambient temperature was below 13°C (55°F). Tests of the concretes and the field performance of the patches indicated that PBC concrete has high early and 28-day strengths, even in cold weather, and that the temperature and strength development is faster than in the control concretes. PBC concretes have the low permeability needed for durability and provide satisfactory resistance to freezing and thawing without the addition of an admixture during mixing.

Download or read book High Performance Concretes written by Paul Zia and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This state-of-the-art report summarizes the results of an extensive search and review of available literature on the mechanical properties of concrete, with particular reference to high performance concrete for highway applications. Included in the review and discussion are the behavior of plastic concrete as well as the strength and deformation characteristics of hardened concrete. Both short-term and long-term effects are considered. Based on the review of the available information, research needs are identified. It is concluded that much research is needed to develop data on the strength and durability properties of concrete which develops high strength, particularly very early strength.
