For this, 12 numbers of concrete mixes have been fabricated by introducing 0%, 50% and 100% ferrochrome slag aggregates (FSA) in place of natural coarse aggregates (NCA) and adding 0%, 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.3% JF in concrete. The workability, 7, 28, and 90 days compressive strength (CS), flexural strength (FS), split tensile strength (STS), ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV), rebound number (RN), water absorption (WA), volume of voids (VV), density of designated mixes, have been studied to access the effect of incorporation of FSA and JF in concrete. The experimental outcome analysis depicts the concrete mix having 50%–100% FSA and 0.1% JF has strength, physical and non-destructive parameters similar to those of normal concrete. Furthermore, 50%–100% FSA usage has been recommended as a substitution of coarse aggregates because the incorporation of FSA has no substantial impact on various concrete properties. It is also detected that 0.1% JF could be introduced in concrete without significant degradation of concrete behaviour since, beyond this level, the properties of concrete are adversely affected.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14488353.2021.1899601","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45466145","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 effects of partial replacement of cement by 17%, 33%, 50% of fly ash contents by total weight of mixture were investigated to evaluate mechanical properties of stabilized subbase materials using the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) test, indirect tensile (IDT) test, and resilient modulus test. It was found that the replacement of cement by 33% of fly ash can use for stabilized subbase material. In addition, a strong relationship between IDT and UCS strength, and resilient modulus and UCS is given which is the coefficient of determination of developed correlation to be 0.9 and 0.82, respectively. It was suggested that the IDT strength or the resilient modulus can be estimated from a UCS test. Finally, the performance of cement replacement with fly ash was evaluated using mechanistic empirical pavement design guide (MEPDG) program. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the cement replacement with 33% fly ash can enhance the performance life significantly and the construction cost reduction can be around 23%, compared to using conventional subbase material.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14488353.2021.1905250","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45351463","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}

Detailed statistical and regression analysis of the roadside vegetation data collected via satellite imageries and road roughness data collected via high speed road profiler was performed. Elaborative investigation on interaction between roadside vegetation and waveband roughness progression has provided a clear indication of tree variable’s contribution on road deterioration. Statistical parameters such as moderate Pearson correlation coefficient (r) values, low mean squared error (MSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE) values, high Willmott’s index of agreement (d) were obtained for training and validation datasets, that depicted the potentiality of tree variables as predictors in pavement roughness progression rate modelling. Statistical evidence showed that effect of trees on road deterioration was more noticeable on long wavelength roughness progression rates. This can be justified via prevailing soil moisture interaction in expansive soil deposits subjected to moisture withdrawal of deciduous trees in arid climate conditions. Overall, the findings of this paper exemplify on the necessity of considering the presence of roadside vegetation in road deterioration analysis, and suggesting the scope of improvement for prediction performance.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14488353.2021.1904596","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46966600","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}

Therefore, wash water reuse can be a method of saving water. This experimental work was conducted to determine the feasibility of using wash water in normal concrete and fibre(F) reinforced concrete. Workability and compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths, as well as fracture toughness of concrete specimens, were carried out according to ASTM and BS. The slump test results showed a slight decrease while using wash water or steel fibre and using both of them concurrently. Using wash water instead of tap water increased compressive strength at 7,14 and 28 days. Adding steel fibre in the specimens containing tap water raised compressive strength sharply at all periods. Nevertheless, applying wash water and steel fibre instantaneously in the concrete sample decreased compressive strength. This consequence was confirmed by the SEM image. Both tensile and flexural strength increased while using wash water instead of tap water. The maximum tensile strength was observed when 100% wash water and steel fibre (W + F) were replaced by tap water. Using steel fibre for concrete samples using tap water increased flexural strength by around 14% compared to the control sample. The highest flexural strength was reached while 100% wash water and steel fibre (W + F) were used simultaneously. Substituting wash water with tap water increased fracture toughness, and adding steel fibre to the concrete sample applying tap water similarly raised fracture toughness compared to the control sample. While using wash water and steel fibre in the concrete sample instantaneously, the fracture toughness increased by 49%.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14488353.2021.1899599","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48030731","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}

Therefore, an attempt has been made in this study to prepare grouting material and develop the mix design consideration first. Further, CGBM characteristics as an alternative recarpeting and/or wearing course material in the Indian scenario based on laboratory and field evaluation in comparison with bituminous concrete mix that is conventional wearing course is explored. In this regard, a trial stretch of CGBM is constructed in the urban area, and field performance is ensured with the laboratory results. Test results reveal that the CGBM mix possesses higher Marshall stability, compressive strength, tensile strength, resilient modulus, better resistance against the moisture damage and oil spillage condition, and less temperature susceptible than the conventional bituminous concrete mix. This case study of CGBM overlay is substantially increasing the remaining service life of the pavement in terms of fatigue and rutting life.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14488353.2021.1896125","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49105374","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 effects of three different metallic waste content on the physical and mechanical properties of asphalt concrete mixtures have investigated. The crack healing potential by electromagnetic induction heating has been assessed in fully and partially cracked asphalt concrete specimens to simulate preventive and corrective maintenance. The crack healing potential has been evaluated through the results of load versus displacement curves obtained through SCB tests, based on a fracture-based approach by the ratio of fracture strength recovery after electromagnetic induction heating. Potential benefits such as simple mixing process and the possibility of using habitual design methods with satisfactory physical and mechanical properties can be achieved by using 10% of metallic waste by volume of bitumen added to asphalt concrete mixtures. The addition of metallic waste modified the fracture behaviour of the asphalt concrete mixtures, which indicates that after crack healing, samples may present a loss of ability to resist crack propagation.

A rhombic connection with a cutting vector pattern like RBS is designed and proposed; then its behavior is compared to those of RBS and DFC connections. The connections are modeled in Abaqus software and then their moment-rotation diagrams are plotted and compared. The results reveal that the DFC connection with holes of different diameters has proper energy absorption and performance. In conclusion, the rhombus DFC connection has a more reliable performance than other DFC connections. In this research, by placing the proposed stiffening components in the connection, it is observed that these components act as dampers increasing the bearing capacity and improve the connection behavior by absorbing the imposed energy. The results indicate that the proposed connection prevents from beam failure as most of input energy is absorbed by the proposed components.","PeriodicalId":44354,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Civil Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2020-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14488353.2020.1854941","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45692882","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 testing program consisted of dynamic modulus, |E*|, bending beam, and axial fatigue tests. The |E*| master curves of the respective AC mixtures and their generalised fatigue model coefficients (k 1, k 2, k 3) from the axial fatigue tests were used to predict and compare the long-term pavement performance of each mixture using the AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design software. This analysis was performed systematically using parametric variations to assess the sensitivity of the predicted performance to individual material factors. Fatigue test results from both bending beam and axial fatigue tests showed clear evidence of improved fatigue behaviour for the rubber-modified gap-graded mixture compared to the conventional gap-graded mixture. The Pavement ME design analysis showed that the rubber-modified gap-graded mixture outperformed the conventional mixture. The parametric sensitivity analysis showed that this improved behaviour was the result of an increase in k 1 and decrease in k 2 of the fatigue life relationships at individual test temperatures of the rubber-modified gap-graded mixture.
