However, in-depth research on this issue remains limited. This study prepared 3D printed concrete with recycled sand (3DPCRS) at replacement ratios of 0 %, 50 %, and 100 % and investigated the time-dependent evolution of 3DPCRS structures in the green state under stepwise loading. Using digital image analysis, the displacement and deformation characteristics of 3DPCRS structures were examined. Additionally, static rheological tests and unconfined uniaxial compression tests were conducted to evaluate the rheological properties and green strength of 3DPCRS. The results indicated that as the recycled sand (RS) replacement ratio increases, the plastic zone area of 3DPCRS structures in the green state under loading gradually decreases. Two displacement modes were identified under loading: instantaneous sudden displacement and static creep displacement, both of which decrease with increasing RS replacement ratio. Furthermore, the yield stress and development rate of the green strength of 3DPCRS accelerate as the RS replacement ratio increases. This study elucidates the mechanisms governing the time-dependent evolution of 3DPCRS structures under loading and proposes a bearing capacity calculation model for vertical loading on the basis of structural parameters. These findings provide valuable guidance for the construction and design of 3DPC structures under loading conditions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9865,"journal":{"name":"Cement & concrete composites","volume":"160 ","pages":"Article 106059"},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143724423","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}

To investigate the modification mechanisms, efficiency for fibers of varying diameters, and compare improvements, tests were conducted on dezincification, chelation, and dezincification-chelation methods.

The hysteresis loop area was used to establish the pastes' thixotropy and investigate its relationship with increased ST content, temperature, and yield stress. In the thixotropic behavior model used, the equilibrium shear stress was employed to examine the CST pastes' irreversible change; the characteristic time of deflocculation was used to study the flocs destruction process; and the incipient structure parameter and flocs structuration rate were used to evaluate the structure-rebuilding process quantitatively. The results revealed an enhanced CST pastes' initial structural parameter (early re-flocculation), above 1.8 times higher than the control. On the other hand, their long-term structuration rates (0.002–0.004 s<sup>−1</sup>) were lower than that of the control paste (0.006 s<sup>−1</sup>), depicting the retardation effect at the hydration products' growth stage and improved workability. The CST pastes' yield stress, plastic viscosity, and thixotropic loop area were 1.2–1.7, 1.8–8.1, and 1.1–3.6 times above the control, respectively. The results suggest the mechanism of CST pastes’ thixotropy arising from the filler effects and attractive interaction that results in early flocculation and subsequent growth of hydration products at the bridge between cement and struvite particles.

Moreover, further reducing the CO<sub>2</sub> emissions of LC3 is a challenges. This study presents an innovative method for producing carbon-fixing calcium carbonates (<em>Cc</em>) with varied reactivities and highly reactive Si-Al gels via the mechano-carbonation of recycled concrete fines (CRCF), aimed at replacing limestone in LC3 production.

The superior early-age performance of <strong><em>C4</em></strong> is attributed to a pivotal \"reaction window\" between the highly reactive <em>Cc</em> and Si-Al gels, which facilitates the generation of monocarbonate (Mc) due to the synchronized aluminate-carbonate reaction. The early precipitated Mc and calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H) gels from the pozzolanic reaction of Si-Al gels serve as seedings, facilitating a higher cement reaction degree and the early strength development. Moreover, the moderately reactive <em>Cc</em> in CRCF still exhibits higher reactivity than limestone, enabling a more synchronized reaction with calcined clay at the later stages.
