Thus, construction material sustainability can be achieved through the use of these wastes in manufacturing concrete. This experimental investigation aimed to assess the behaviour of self-compacting concrete (SCC) incorporating LDP. A total of six concrete mixes were designed with various volume percentages of 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 and 30% of LDP as fine aggregate and used waste ceramic powder 30% (by weight) as partial substitution of cement for all mixtures. The experimental parameters are composed of fresh properties (fresh density, segregation analysis, H2/H1 ratio, slump flow diameter, V-funnel and T500 slump flow time) and hardened properties of dry density, ultrasonic pulse velocity, compressive and flexural strengths. However, the samples were exposed to elevated temperatures at 25 and 800°C for 3 h to examine dry density and compressive strength. The results showed that the dry density and compressive strength with 30% LDP were decreased by 4.9 and 37.17%, respectively, after being exposed to 800°C. From the compressive strength results, it was determined that all the mixes before and after exposure to elevated temperatures were suitable for structural purposes.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44570991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The comparison shows that general-purpose (GP) cements adhering to Standards Australia and specifications stipulating low sulphate, alkali contents may not be prone to expansive DEF. However, there is a lack of experimental evidence supporting the low risk of Australian cements for expansive DEF. Hence, in this study, the susceptibility of Australian GP cements to expansive DEF under different heat curing temperatures up to 90°C have been studied. Further, these cements have been chemically modified to simulate the characteristics of cements used where deleterious DEF is observed in field cases. The testing protocol included long-term mortar expansion studies supported by phase and microstructural analyses. The results indicate that mortars containing Australian GP cements do not exhibit DEF expansion. Furthermore, increasing the cement sulphate content to 4% or alkali content to 1% did not result in DEF expansion. However, for cements where both the sulphate and alkali contents were increased to 4% and 1%, respectively, mortars generated significant expansion associated with ettringite precipitation. Overall, the results obtained from this study indicate that GP cements complying with Standards Australia and specifications for sulphate and alkali limits are not susceptible to expansive DEF.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45280060","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These constraints have a considerable impact on the extensive implementation of deep foundation on sloping ground. Comprehensive research studies were carried out on laterally loaded vertical piles on horizontal ground whereas only a limited number of studies have been conducted on the behavior of the laterally loaded raker-pile system on sloping sites. Therefore, to address this knowledge gap, the current investigative research paper aimed to study the results of a series of static lateral load tests were conducted in the laboratory on a single aluminium model raker pile embedded in loose sandy soil on 1V: 2H sloping ground. The loading directions were varied considering either forward (close to the slope) or reverse (away from the slope) loading for all pile positions. The influence of the sloping ground was quantified by measuring the pile response for horizontal ground conditions. It was observed that there is a significant increase in the displacement of the pile for the sloping ground surface compared to the horizontal ground. With an increase in the edge distance from the slope crest towards the embankment, a reduction in the pile displacement was observed. The optimum distance from the slope crest towards the embankment where the effect of slope becomes nullified under both forward and reverse lateral loads was determined as 10D (D – Diameter of the pile). From the obtained results, it was evident that in the case of the level ground and sloping ground with forward loading, the negative raker piles offer more resistance to lateral loads than vertical piles. In contrast, the positive raker piles endure the least lateral load with increasing inclination angle.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43031698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to aircraft movements, these pavements are subjected to large dynamic loads that can cause their failure and jeopardise safety. This paper proposes the use of improved cement-based layers to enhance the performance of flexible runway pavements. The performance of such retrofitted runway pavements under both static and moving loads is investigated by experimental study and three-dimensional numerical simulations. Results indicate that the improved cement-based layers can significantly reduce surface deflections in the runways under heavy static and moving loads. Under heavy moving loads, the proposed cement-based layers can distribute the vertical stresses to the surrounding soil area, significantly reduce surface deformations and prevent failure. Findings of this research will contribute towards improved designs of runway pavements resulting in enhanced safety and failure mitigation.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44324112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ceiling diaphragm plays an important role in distributing lateral loads to the bracing walls.

In this research, numerous inexpensive tests have been conducted to replicate representative tests to determine the parameters outlining the load-displacement behaviour for the screw connections between cold-formed steel framing members and plasterboard sheathing. All investigations of shear connection tests have focused on monotonic loading testing. These tests are aimed to determine the lower and upper bounds of the load-displacement curves for typical cold-formed steel framing-to-plasterboard screw connections in ceiling diaphragms.

Therefore, it is inevitable that the properties of bitumen and asphalt mixtures must be improved. Polymer modification is one of the methods to improve bitumen properties. In the present paper, styrene butadiene styrene (SBS), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), and low-density polyethylene (LDPE), along with Sasobit wax, were used to modify the bitumen. For that purpose, we used tests, including conventional bitumen tests and linear amplitude sweep (LAS) tests. The results of the present study showed that the polymer mentioned above improves the rutting index of the base bitumen. Based on the bending beam test results, polymer additives and Sasobit have no positive effect on the low-temperature performance of the base bitumen. The LAS test results were used to compare PMBs’ fatigue performance, and it was evident that SBR had the most significant effect on increasing the fatigue life of the base bitumen. In the meantime, Sasobit increases the fatigue life of PMBs at high strain levels.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42154931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lateral behaviour of masonry infill frames is strongly influenced by material properties, masonry dimensions, aspect ratio, and story numbers.

To this purpose, a half-scaled single-bay, single-story RC frame was built with the most common material inside the country and tested under the cyclic loading. Thereafter, numerical modelling of the experimental specimen is performed. After validating the authenticity of numerical modelling by the consequence of experimental results, numerical models expanded in RC frames with different story numbers.
