Abstract
Abstract The world is facing the problem of depletion of natural sand and gravel resources, and a large amount of coal gangue solid waste is produced in Inner Mongolia, China, which has low utilization rate and causes ecological pollution. In order to improve the gangue in the mining infrastructure construction of a wide range of application prospects, the use of coal gangue as the coarse aggregate of pumice concrete is of great significance. Inner Mongolia is a cold region, and gangue mixed aggregate concrete (MFC) will certainly face the damage caused by freeze–thaw cycles. Therefore, design gangue by different volume replacement rate (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%) to replace pumice coarse aggregate. The results show that with the increase of gangue substitution rate, the mass loss rate, relative dynamic elastic modulus, and peak stress of MFC decrease, but the trend of peak strain increases. It is mainly attributed to the less Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 content of gangue, which makes the MFC hydration products decrease with the increase of substitution rate and more original microcracks and pores in the specimens. In addition, the damage model of MFC was established by using Weibull statistical distribution theory and the principle of LEMAITRE equivalent effect variation assumption, and the damage evolution characteristics were explored by combining the experimental results. It can provide the theoretical basis for the application of MFC in cold regions.
