Having been used by various sectors, production of construction material from plastic waste has received more interest. Numerous studies have proven that shredded polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic bottles constitute a valuable construction material where plastic waste management/recycling procedures are not effective. The goal of this study lies in factors such as strengthening construction material, reducing carbon emissions in atmosphere and minimizing overall costs. Manufacturing plastic M-sand bricks, and integrating post-consumer PET (PCPET) from single-use plastic water bottles into M-Sand is the main focus of our research. This work used two types of PCPET wastes (washed and unwashed) with different mix proportions of plastic and M-sand, such as 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 for brick production. The bricks manufactured are tested for durability through compression, water absorption, efflorescence, and dimensional stability, and subsequently, Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for morphological assessment. By the conducted experiential results, it is evident that the design mixes M3 and M8 guarantee appreciable strength that is 2–1.5 times of other mix designs. The M3 design mix with one part washed PCPET and two parts M-sand has exhibited superior performance, with a compressive strength of 40.29 N/mm², minimal water absorption, and observed homogeneity in SEM. In addition, post-demolition sustainability is addressed by integrating recycled brick aggregate with M-sand, showing optimal results for design mix M8, including a compressive strength of 40.54 N/mm², favorable water absorption, and positive SEM findings. EDX confirmed zero carbon elements in the produced bricks. These findings prove the strength of our research on the sustainable recycling of waste thermoplastics within the circular economy, presenting a promising solution to environmental and economic challenges.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":288,"journal":{"name":"Construction and Building Materials","volume":"456 ","pages":"Article 139286"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142743077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, 180 pullout specimens were designed to reveal the effect of age and lateral pressure on bond strength, and a theoretical analysis model for predicting bond strength was also presented.

However, its brittleness causes poor wear resistance and presents a significant challenge in the application under harsh environmental circumstances. The preparation of EP composites by rationally selecting functional inorganic fillers offers a promising strategy for enhancing mechanical and tribological properties. In this paper, multifunctional EP composites were successfully fabricated with varying mass fractions of rice-granular nickel/iron bimetallic phyllosilicate (NiFePS). The compressive properties, water contact angles, wet-sliding responses, and the morphological analysis of worn surfaces for EP composites were carried out and discussed in detail. Results indicate that the incorporated NiFePS scarcely alters the compressive stress-strain curves, still exhibiting the representative stages including elastic transformation, stress yielding and strain hardening throughout the entire compressive process. The compressive strength, elastic modulus and fracture energy initially increase and then decrease, attaining the maximum values of 266.3 MPa, 4.43 GPa, and 72.1 J/cm², respectively, with the addition of merely 1 % NiFePS. Furthermore, the introduction of NiFePS significantly reduces the water contact angle, transforming the surface of EP composite from hydrophobic to hydrophilic. The friction coefficient and wear rate of EP composites decrease sharply with the addition of NiFePS, achieving the lowest values of 0.136 and 1.24×10⁻⁶ mm³/Nm simultaneously at a filler concentration of 1 %, which represent reductions of 17.07 % and 70.55 %, respectively, compared to the resin matrix. Additionally, the wet-sliding responses affected by various applied loads, rotating speeds and abrasive durations are comprehensively discussed.

However, the distinct physical properties of CFRP, epoxy resin, and steel pose significant challenges to accurately inspecting bonding interface defects of such special hybrid engineering structures. To address these challenges, a new approach, streamlined one-dimensional convolutional denoising autoencoder-low-power vibrothermography (SOCDAE-LVT), is proposed in this study to enhance the recognition of bonding interface defects within CSAS. This approach utilizes thermal signals from low-power vibrothermography (LVT) to enhance the recognizability of CSAS bonding interface defects. A low-power vibrothermography inspection system was developed to acquire thermal signals on the surface of CSAS samples. A streamlined one-dimensional convolutional denoising autoencoder (SOCDAE) model was designed for robust representation extraction of the thermal signal at each pixel point. The study further investigated the impact of different types of added noise and signal pre-processing approaches on the performance of the SOCDAE-LVT, aiming to optimize its effectiveness. By comparing qualitatively and quantitatively with the state-of-the-art approaches, the results show that the proposed approach can better improve the recognizability of defects.

However, rebar corrosion and exposure to high temperatures significantly affect this bond strength. Regrettably, research on the combined effect of these two factors on bond strength is scarce, and there is a lack of a unified, precise, and efficient predictive model. This research developed a stacking model to forecast bond strength under the combined impact of high temperature and corrosion. The initial layer of the model comprises SVR, KNN, MLP, RF, GBDT, and XGBoost as base learners, with the second layer being the linear regression model. The analysis led to the following conclusions: In a comparative study, the stacked model demonstrated superior performance compared to the six base learner models (SVR, KNN, MLP, RF, GBDT, and XGBoost). Among all combinations, Stacking Model Three showed the most robust predictive performance, achieving an R² value of 0.9439, an MAE of 0.8553, an MSE of 2.2721, and an RMSE of 1.5073. Stacking Model Three surpassed XGBoost, the most effective base learner, showing improvements of 1.78 % in R², 20.69 % in MAE, 22.66 % in MSE, and 12.05 % in RMSE. The machine learning model’s enhanced reliability was further confirmed by comparison with existing models. Stacking Model Three outshone the Australian Standard model with improvements of 639.04 % in MAE, 2568.77 % in MSE, and 416.61 % in RMSE. Similarly, XGBoost, the top base learner, exceeded the Australian Standard model with gains of 486.09 % in MAE, 1964.39 % in MSE, and 354.36 % in RMSE. The outcomes of the SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) affirm the interpretability and physical validity of the stacking model employed. The SHAP analysis indicates that the corrosion level of steel bars (CL) and temperature (T) are the critical factors influencing bond strength. This research underscores the practical value of SHAP feature importance in feature selection by comparing the predictive performance of stacked models with various input feature combinations, thus confirming that feature selection significantly impacts the model’s predictive accuracy.
