The study was designed to determine the ECC formulation ideally suitable for optimizing mechanical properties and bonding performance at ambient and elevated temperatures. The SCC and ECC were hot-joined without vibration or surface preparation, using a fresh-to-fresh casting method. Modifications to the chemical composition of ECC included the addition of Class-F fly ash (FAF), Class-C fly ash (FAC), or slag (SL), as well as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or steel reinforcing fibers. Subsequently, the samples were exposed to temperatures of 200 °C, 400 °C, 600 °C, and 800 °C, followed by comprehensive testing to evaluate their flexural strength, tensile strength, and interfacial properties. The results indicate that the incorporation of an ECC layer within the SCC system significantly improved mechanical strength, and thermal stability, both at ambient temperatures and under high-temperature conditions. Notably, the utilization of FAF in the ECC layer offered superior thermal stability and ensured the retention of desirable residual mechanical properties compared to FAC and SL. Moreover, steel fiber reinforcement greatly improved the bonding between SCC and ECC, outperforming PVA reinforcement at elevated temperatures.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"16 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138517460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, it is more cost-effective to produce concrete resistant to chemical and sulfuric acid corrosion. In the present study, a total of six concrete mixtures incorporating 7.5% silica fumes (SF) and 10% natural zeolite (ZE) were immersed in 0.5% and 1% sulfuric acid solutions with a maximum pH threshold of 2 and 1 respectively for 70 weeks to enhance concrete resistance to acid attack. The specimens were regularly monitored for surface deterioration, mass changes, and crushing load changes. To better understand the relationship between the pore structure of concrete mixtures and resistance to sulfuric acid, various durability tests such as rapid chloride penetration, water absorption, electrical resistivity, and chloride diffusion coefficient were performed. Based on the results obtained, it was concluded that converting calcium hydroxide (CH) into CSH gel through pozzolanic reactions and then refining the porosity of concrete with silica fume and natural zeolite was effective in enhancing the resistance of concrete to attack by sulfuric acid of relatively low concentration. As a result, using SF and ZE is a lower-cost method for reducing corrosion rates to extend the service life of facilities, particularly in lower concentrations.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"144 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138504815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To compare the characteristics of ASR between SWSSC and seawater and desalinated sea sand (DSS) concrete and investigate the effects of desalinated sea sand on the ASR of SWSSC, the properties and the ASR products of mortar-bars with different desalinated sea sand content were investigated. When the DSS proportion increased from 0% to 100%, the Na + , K + , and Ca + concentration contents and pH of the specimens decreased by 22.6, 2.0, 45.1 mg·L + and 0.05, and the expansion of mortar bars reduced by 0.16%. Desalination of sea sand could not eliminate the risk of ASR of SWSSC completely. The 14 days expansion of mortar bars with 100% DSS was 0.13%, and the precursors of ASR-P1 were observed by SEM. The experimental results of XRD, FTIR, Raman spectrometer, DTA, SEM, and EDX all showed that with the increase of DSS proportion, the content of Na-shlykovite and ASR-P1 were gradually reduced. A small amount of Mg element in both Na-shlykovite and ASR-P1 was detected by EDX, but the mechanism of Mg element in ASR of SWSSC needs further study. This study can provide a basis for the application of SWSSC in island infrastructure.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"9 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135042862","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If cement stabilized macadam is immersed in water for a long time, the degree of damage will be greater. In order to study the damage of cement stabilized macadam with long-time water immersion, a discrete element model of cement stabilized macadam was established in this paper. The Weibull distribution function was used to simulate the heterogeneous contact between particles. The parallel bond model was to simulate the material constitutive relationship. The microscopic parameters of cement-stabilized macadam were obtained by trial-and-error method. The stress-strain curve was obtained by immersion test. The micromechanics behavior of cement stabilized macadam after immersion was analyzed. The results show that the contact area and strength of cement stabilized macadamia immersed for 30 days are 31.4 % and 46 % smaller than that of not immersed macadamia. The force chains between particles are evenly distributed. At the loading peak, the normal contact force between particles is much larger than the tangential force, and the vertical force chain is much larger than the transverse force chain. The distribution of cementation energy/friction energy/impact energy is not uniform in the middle/peak loading stage.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":" 887","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135186467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The simplified numerical model included introduces a simplified RC frame and a simplified vehicle. For the simplified RC frame, a mixed modelling technique was used, in which structural components that experienced serious damage were simulated using detailed elements, while the retained structural components were simulated by larger elements. A constraint algorithm of nodal rigid body in LS-DYNA was adopted to guarantee the displacement compatibility of two kinds of element. For the simplified vehicle model, the spring–mass system was improved on the basis of the energy conservation principle to represent the vehicle in a 45° impact. Combining the simplified RC frame model and vehicle model, the impact response of an RC frame subjected to vehicle impact was studied and compared with the results of a detailed RC frame model impacted by a detailed vehicle. The validation confirmed that these introduced simplifications could significantly improve the computational efficiency and ensure the computational accuracy for the collapse analysis of an RC frame subjected to vehicle impact.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":" 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135293375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

BCSA cement reaches an initial set in about 15 min at room temperature and can reach compressive strengths of over 27 MPa in about 2 h. While it can be mixed in a similar fashion to Portland cement (PC), a set retarder (such as citric acid) is usually required to achieve adequate working time and the design of mixtures differs slightly from PC designs. This paper provides guidance on establishing mix design criteria for BCSA cement. Slump and compressive strength studies measurements were taken for varying mixture proportions with strengths measured up to 1 year of hydration. For BCSA concrete mixtures, a relationship between water content and slump was established. Citric acid was found to increase the slump, especially at lower water contents. A relationship between setting time and citric acid dosage was proposed on the basis of mortar penetrometer and Vicat needle tests. X-ray diffraction analysis was also conducted on BCSA cement pastes with different water/cement (w/c) ratios. Crystalline structure growth was found to be directly related to the w/c ratio and inversely proportional to compressive strength.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":" 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135293276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The focus of this study was on improving the strength of a geopolymer composite by assessing the positive hybrid effect of nano-calcium carbonate (NCC) and polyethylene fibres (PFs) of different lengths (6 mm and 12 mm). Fresh and hardened properties, including flowability and strength, were investigated to evaluate the hybrid effect. Generally, the hybrid effects from the PFs of different lengths and NCC were negative for flowability, but the hybrid effects were positive on strength. The combination of 12 mm PF + 6 mm PF + 1% NCC was found to have the highest hybrid effect on bending strength, resulting from the good fibre–matrix bond. The bending strength of the PF-reinforced geopolymer composite was assessed based on a new regression coefficient (A), which takes into account the hybrid effect, the fibre–matrix bond strength and fibre dispersion. The new model for the bending strength of PF-reinforced geopolymer composites introduced in this paper is simpler and more effective than previous models provided in the literature.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"63 18","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135874443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
