Effect of internal curing on behavior of high performance concrete: An overview
(Elsevier BV, 2019-06)This study reviews research experiences on developing an internal curing approach for high-performance concrete (HPC). Common materials have been used to produce the internal curing required to reduce self-desiccation in ... -
Effect of using mineral admixtures and ceramic wastes as coarse aggregates on properties of ultrahigh-performance concrete
(Elsevier BV, 2020-11)Recent advancements in recycling have transformed nonrenewable resources into partially renewable resources. In line with these advancements, the application of wastes, including ceramics, as substitute aggregate materials ... -
Investigating the mechanical and microstructure properties of fibre-reinforced lightweight concrete under elevated temperatures
(Elsevier BV, 2020-12)This study investigated the mechanical properties and elevated temperatures of lightweight concrete (LWC) incorporating polypropylene fibre (PPF) and glass fibre (GF). The experimental research used five types of concrete ... -
Strength and transport characteristics of volcanic pumice powder based high strength concrete
(Elsevier BV, 2019-08)In this study, the potency of volcanic pumice powder (VPP) as a supplementary cementitious material at varied levels (0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%) in high strength concrete (HSC) was investigated for its pozzolanic reactivity ... -
The effect of steam curing regimes on the chloride resistance and pore size of high–strength green concrete
(Elsevier BV, 2021-04)Since diminishing the consumption of cement has many benefits, ongoing research on the incorporation of the industrial/agricultural wastes as an alternative or partial substitution for cement is of paramount significance. ...
