Fresh Properties of Cementitious Grout with Rice Husk Powder
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2017-09)
This paper reports the results of a study conducted to investigate the effects of rice husk powder (RHP) on the rheological properties and the fluidity of grout mixtures. The experiments were carried out with the grout ...
Semi-rigidity of cap plate and extended end plate connections
(TECHNO-PRESS, 2017-04-10)
The behaviour of steel frames is highly influenced by the beam-column connections. Traditionally, Steel frames were usually designed assuming that connections are ideally pinned or fully rigid. A semi-rigid connection, ...
Comparative Response Assessment of Steel Frames With Different Bracing Systems Under Seismic Effect
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2017-08)
The field of earthquake engineering and seismology is of a great importance to structural engineers around the world. Choosing an appropriate lateral force resisting system has a significant effect on performance of the ...
Finite element analysis and optimization of bonded post-tensioned concrete slabs
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS AS, 2017-06-22)
Optimization techniques may be effective in finding alternative design of post-tensioned slabs to improve their mechanical behaviour, particularly reducing the bending moments. Post-Tensioned (PT) concrete one-way slabs ...
Fresh, Mechanical and Absorption Characteristics of Self-Consolidating Concretes Including Low Volume Waste PET Granules
(C EJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-10)
This study evaluates the effect of waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) granules on the fresh, mechanical and absorption characteristics of self-consolidating concretes (SCCs). Fine aggregates were replaced with different ...
Optimization of lightweight GGBFS and FA geopolymer mortars by response surface method
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2017-05-15)
In the first stage of the paper, the effect of binder content, curing temperature and curing time on the compressive strength of light-weight geopolymer mortar (LWGM) was investigated. The base materials used for LWGM are ...
Effect of aggregate properties on the mechanical and absorption characteristics of geopolymer mortar
(ELSEVIER - DIVISION REED ELSEVIER INDIA PVT LTD, 2017-12)
Even though aggregate constitutes major volume in geopolymer concrete, only limited study related to this parameter has been reported. This paper presents the summary of study carried out to understand the influence of ...
