Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPhysical and Mechanical Properties of Concrete using Recycled Clay Bricks as Coarse AggregateMohammad Yasir Abdul Hakim, Mohamed El-Zeadani, Siti Aminah OsmanRising construction waste due to demolition work, natural disasters, and development is becoming a prominent issue. To tackle this, Recycled Crushed Brick Masonry Aggregate (RCBMA) can be an ideal replacement for the limited Natural Coarse Aggregates (NCA) in the production of concrete, potentially assisting in managing construction waste and reducing the depletion of NCA. As such, this study focused on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 4 Apr 2022 · 7,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProduction of High-Performance Silica Fume ConcreteOmar Asad AhmadThis research aimed to produce concrete that will decrease disadvantages of portland concrete and resolve it. Mixture of Silica fume with concrete in this paper shows that the strength and hardness are increased. In this research the main gools is to compare the deference of compressive strength between standred concrete and concrete with silica fume with different additives ratio and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 11 · 25 Nov 2017 · 8,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Use of the Super Absorbent Polymer as Water Blocker in Concrete StructuresMoayyad Al-Nasra, Mohammad Daoudb, Taher M. Abu-LebdehAdding super absorbent polymer to the concrete mix improves the performance of the concrete in its both stages; fresh concrete and hardened concrete. The super absorbent polymer has the ability to absorb relatively large amount of water and convert it into gel at the same time the volume increases proportionally. The new modified concrete has the ability to retain water … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2015 · 8,932 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEFFECT OF USING STEEL SLAG AGGREGATE ON MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETESultan A. Tarawneh, Emhaidy S. Gharaibeh, Falah M. SarairehThis study presents an evaluation of the physical and mechanical properties and characteristics of steel slag aggregate concrete in comparison with the typical crushed limestone stone aggregate concrete. Hardened concrete consist of more than 70% aggregate due to the high demand in building construction and the increase of the amount of disposed waste material, suppliers and researchers are exploring the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 10 Feb 2014 · 8,055 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUse of Recycled Aggregate and Fly Ash in Concrete PavementMyle Nguyen James, Wonchang Choi, Taher Abu-LebdehProblem statement: Recycled materials aggregate from the demolished concrete structures and fly ash from burning coal shows the possible application as structural and non structural components in concrete structures. This research aims to evaluate the feasibility of using concrete containing recycled concrete aggregate and fly ash in concrete pavement. Approach: Two water cement ratio (0.45 and 0.55) the compressive strength, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 12 Jul 2011 · 9,309 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHigh Rate-Dependent Interaction Diagrams for Reinforced Concrete ColumnsTaher Abu-Lebdeh, Sameer Hamoush, Wonchang Choi, Moayyad Al NasraProblem statement: There is a need to better understand the rate dependence behavior of reinforced concrete structures in order to improve their response to impact and blast loads. Analysis and design of reinforced concrete structures subjected to seismic loadings has been recommended in many FEMA guidelines. However, reevaluation of design becomes extremely important in cases where large deformations are expected … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2011 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of the Transport Properties of Tyre Fiber Modified ConcreteG. Senthil Kumaran, M. Lakshmipathy, Nurdin MushuleProblem statement: Nowadays, the use of waste tyre in concrete has become technically feasible and the tyre mixed concrete is light weight and called as rubberized concrete. Still the research is going on to explore basic engineering properties such as transport properties viz, acid absorption test, water absorption tests, impact resistance, modulus of elasticity, dynamic modulus and so on. In … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2011 · 7,433 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReuse Water Treatment Sludge for Hollow Concrete Block ManufactureThaniya KaosolProblem statement: This research reuses the water treatment sludge from a water treatment plant to make hollow concrete blocks. The main objectives are to increase the value of the water treatment sludge from a water treatment plant and to make a sustainable and profitable disposal alternative for the water treatment sludge. Attempts were made to utilize the water treatment sludge … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 10,427 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDuctility Performance of Hybrid Fibre Reinforced ConcreteS. Eswari, P.N. Raghunath, K. SugunaThis study presents a study on the ductility performance of hybrid fibre reinforced concrete. The influence of fibre content on the ductility performance of hybrid fibre reinforced concrete specimens having different fibre volume fractions was investigated. The parameters of investigation included modulus of rupture, ultimate load, service load, ultimate and service load deflection, crack width, energy ductility and deflection ductility. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDefect Classification of Reinforced Concrete Structures with Nondestructive Tests Using Statistical and Machine Learning MethodsSajjad Sayyar-Roudsari, Armaghan Shalbaftabar, Farshid Damirchilo et al.In this study, twelve reinforced concrete beams were constructed, each with specified dimensions and initial compressive strength. The beams were divided into four groups: A control group without any defect, a void group featuring a centrally located void, a corrosion group and a debonding group. The impact echo test was used for nondestructive testing, gathering data on compressive and shear … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 11 Jun 2024 · 5,258 accessesView PDFCite
