Abstract:
Curing conditions is one of the most influential factors on mechanical properties and durability of concrete. The mechanical properties (strength and dynamic modulus of elasticity) and durability (water permeability, air permeability and coulomb electric flux) of concrete under water curing and air curing were analyzed through the tests, and the significance of the curing conditions influence on mechanical properties and durability were compared. Test results indicate that the effect of curing conditions on the durability was much large than on the mechanical properties, and strength should not be the single control indicator while considering the effect of curing, moreover the some durability indicators of concrete also should be taken into consideration, which can provide the reference for engineering application.

Abstract:
This paper presents mechanical and durability properties of green star concretes. Four series of concretes are considered. The first series is control concrete containing 100% ordinary Portland cement, 100% natural aggregates and fresh water. The other three series of concretes are green star concretes according to Green Building Council Australia (GBCA), which contain blast furnace slag, recycled coarse aggregates and concrete wash water. In all above concretes compressive strength, indirect tensile strength, elastic modulus, water absorption, sorptivity and chloride permeability are measured at 7 and 28 days. Results show that mechanical properties of green star concretes are lower than the control concrete at both ages with significant improvement at 28 days. Similar results are also observed in water absorption, sorptivity and chloride permeability where all measured durability properties are lower in green star concretes compared to control concrete except the higher water absorption in some green star concretes.

Abstract:
The mechanical and durability properties were best at 45% GGBS and 5% Waste Glass with 0.4 water/cement ratio. The recycled materials implemented for mix proportion were waste glass provided considerably to enhance its properties when added with GGBS. In most of the research work, the effect of WG and GGBS in concrete as a partial substitution of fine aggregate and cement individually is analyzed. Previous studies only show the individual impact of these concrete recycled materials on mechanical and durability properties. In the present study, an exact optimum substitution level of cement by GGBS (15 – 60% at an increment of 15%) and fine aggregate by the waste glass (5 – 20% at an increase of 5%) combined for OPC concrete mix. Mechanical (compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength) and microstructural properties (FESEM) were observed on the combination of waste glass and GGBS concrete mix.

Abstract:
The current study experimentally investigated the effect of glass powder on the mechanical and durability properties of selfcompacting mortars (SCMs). SCMs were designed with a low water/binder ratio as well as the high binder content. In this study, fly ash and glass powder can be used instead of cement to obtain the sustainable concrete and waste management control. At first, control mixture was produced with cement and fly ash without glass powder. Then, glass powder was used on the proportions 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% instead of fly ash in SCM. Compressive strength and flexural strength tests were conducted at 28 and 56 days, respectively. To determine durability properties, water sorptivity and rapid chloride permeability were tested at 28 and 56 days, respectively. Test results indicate that glass dust added to SCMs instead of fly ash improved partially the mechanical and durability properties of the mortars.Keywords: Fly ash, glass powder, mechanical and durability properties, self-compacting mortars .

Abstract:
The effect of using basalt fibers on the fresh, mechanical, durability, and corrosion properties of reinforced concrete was investigated in this study. The study was performed using different basalt fiber volume fractions of 0.15%, 0.30%, 0.45%, and 0.50%, while two different water/cement (w/c) ratios of 0.35 and 0.40 were utilized. The results were compared to conventional concrete (PC) as well as steel fiber concrete (SFC) with 0.30% and 0.50% steel fibers volume fractions. An extensive experimental program of 336 samples was conducted in four stages as follows: testing for fresh properties included slump and unit weight tests; mechanical properties testing included compressive strength tests, split tensile strength tests, flexural strength tests, and average residual strength tests; durability testing included unrestrained shrinkage and surface resistivity tests; and a Rapid Macrocell corrosion evaluation test for corrosion properties. The test results showed that the use of basalt fibers reduces slump values as the fiber volume fraction increases; however, with the use of the appropriate amount of High Range Water Admixture (HRWA), target slump values can be achieved. Moreover, a considerable improvement in the compressive, tensile, flexural, average residual strength and durability properties was achieved in case of using basalt fibers. On the other hand, corrosion rates increased with the increase in fiber volumes. However, it can be concluded that utilizing a 0.30% fibers volume fraction is the optimum ratio with an overall acceptable performance with respect to mechanical and corrosion properties.

Abstract:
Despite presenting a very high global warming toll, Portland cement concrete is the most widely used construction material in the world. The eco-efficiency, economy, and the overall mechanical and durability performances of concrete can be improved by incorporating supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) as partial substitutions to ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Naturally found bentonite possesses pozzolanic properties and has very low carbon footprint compared to OPC. By applying activation techniques, the reactivity of bentonite can be improved, and its incorporation levels can be maximized. In this study, the influence of mechanical and thermo-mechanical activation of bentonite is investigated on properties of concrete. Bentonite was used for 0%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, and 35% mass replacements of OPC. Mechanical (compressive strength and split tensile strength) and durability (water absorption, sorptivity coefficient, and acid attack resistance) properties were studied. Results of experimental testing revealed that, concrete containing bentonite showed good mechanical performance, while durability was significantly improved relative to control mix. Application of thermo-mechanical activation can enhance the incorporation levels of bentonite in concrete. At 15% and 25%, bentonite produced optimum results for mechanical and thermo-mechanical activation, respectively. Bentonite inclusion is more beneficial to the durability than the mechanical strength of concrete.

Abstract:
In the handling and usage processes, sufficient density and durability of biomass (straw, read) briquettes should be provided. For the briquettes density standards determined the value ρ > 1.0 g cm-3. In ? the densification process usually fine grinded particles are used, what significantly increases energy consumption for stalk material cutting. Calculated energy consumption for common reed cutting to sizes less than 3 mm was > 7 kJ kg-1 but for size 20 mm it was approximately 1 kJ kg-1. The goal of the investigation was to obtain the necessary density and durability of briquettes of larger biomass particles by arranging them. The orientation of straw or reed stalks had to promote binding by the pressing operation. The long stalk linking, in the picture of coloured stalk briquettes sections, is good visible. Crushing force dependence on particle size for arranged structure briquettes is stated in laboratory experiments. The specific splitting force of arranged structure coarse chopped wheat straw and reed briquettes reaches value 35 N mm-1. It is approximately the same as industrially produced wood briquettes. Splitting force of the hemp stalk briquettes reaches 115 N·mm-1.

Abstract:
Basalt fiber has a great advantage on the mechanical properties and durability of reactive powder concrete (RPC) because of its superior mechanical properties and chemical corrosion resistance. In this paper, basalt fiber was adopted to modified RPC, and plain reactive powder concrete (PRPC), basalt fiber reactive powder concrete (BFRPC) and steel fiber reactive powder concrete (SFRPC) were prepared. The mechanical properties and freeze–thaw durability of BFRPC with different basalt fiber contents were tested and compared with PRPC and SFRPC to investigate the effects of basalt fiber contents and fiber type on the mechanical properties and freeze–thaw durability of RPC. Besides, the mass loss rate and compressive strength loss rate of RPC under two freeze–thaw conditions (fresh-water freeze–thaw and chloride-salt freeze–thaw) were tested to evaluate the effects of freeze–thaw conditions on the freeze–thaw durability of RPC. The experiment results showed that the mechanical properties and freeze–thaw resistance of RPC increased as the basalt fiber content increase. Compared with the fresh-water freeze–thaw cycle, the damage of the chloride-salt freeze–thaw cycle on RPC was great. Based on the freeze–thaw experiment results, it was found that SFRPC was sensitive to the corrosion of chloride salts and compared with the steel fiber, the improvement of basalt fiber on the freeze–thaw resistance of RPC was great.

This research aims to combine the effects of waste glass and Nano-silica powder on the properties of fiber-reinforced self-compacting mortar. A detailed study was undertaken to investigate the effect of different glass powder contents as cement replacement on the behavior of mortar. For this purpose, Portland cement was partially replaced by 10%, 15%, and 20% waste glass powder alone, and then in combination with 2% substitution levels for Nano-silica. The amount of water-binder ratio and cementitious materials content were considered constant. Fresh properties of specimens were determined using slump flow, and vfunnel flow time tests, mechanical properties were determined by compressive strength, and tensile strength tests, and durability characteristics evaluated by water absorption, and resistance to sulfuric acid attack. Microstructural morphology of specimens was also assessed by scanning electron microscopy. It was observed that the workability slightly decreased and improved mechanical and durability properties could be achieved. The SEM micrographs illustrated more densified pore structure of the mortars containing waste glass powder which leads to increase in strength and durability of specimens.

Abstract:
Increased development in the field of construction with the use of sand, stones etc. depletes the natural resources and thus resulted in the scarcity of construction materials. Furthermore, generation of waste from several industries such as steel slag, copper slag, blast furnace slag etc. are being dumped in the nearby landfills leading to disposal problems. The scarcity of construction materials necessitated the utilization of suitable alternative materials with equivalent physical and chemical characteristics. This paper investigates the suitability of copper slag (CS) as a substitute to natural fine aggregate (NFA) in the concrete. The concrete mixes are prepared with 0%, 10%, 30%, 50%, 70% and 100% of copper slag at 0.45 w/c ratio. The behaviour of CS in the concrete was assessed by hardened properties such as compression, tension and flexure at 7, 14, 28 and 90 days and durability properties such as water absorption, porosity and chloride ion penetration at 56 days. Results indicate that the replacement of CS beyond 50% affects properties of the concrete; however increased curing improved the properties of the concrete at higher replacement levels. Characterization studies such as XRD and SEM was performed to examine the effect of CS on the properties of the concrete.

Abstract:
Historical buildings and monuments are largely made of brickwork. These buildings form the historical and artistic character of cities, and how we look after them is a reflection of our society. When assessing ceramic products, great emphasis is placed on their mechanical properties, whilst their durability is often neglected. However, the durability or resistance to weathering of masonry elements is just as important as their mechanical properties. Therefore, this work deals with predicting the durability of solid-fired bricks before they are used when reconstructing monuments and historical buildings. Durability prediction is assessed by identifying defects in the material’s internal structure. These faults may not be visible on the element’s surface and are difficult to detect. For this purpose, non-destructive electroacoustic methods, such as the resonant pulse method or the ultrasonic pulse method, were used. Based on an analysis of the initial and residual mechanical properties after freezing cycles, four durability classes of solid-fired bricks were determined. This work aimed to find a way to predict the durability (lifetime) of an anonymous solid-fired brick, expressed in terms of the number of freeze cycles the brick would last, based on non-destructive measurements.

Abstract:
This writes up analyse earlier investigation on the major benefits and problems associated with the utilization of palm kernel shell as limited substitute of marble chippings as a local material in the production of kernelrazzo floor finish tiles. Although papers on kernelrazzo floor finish are few and one hundred and one (101) current related papers on palm kernel shell concrete were used to produce lightweight concretes and former literatures was assessed on the durability and strength of kernelrazzo floor finish. Rarely work has been done on incorporating palm kernel shell as incomplete substitute of marble in the production of kernelrazzo floor finish tiles. Palm kernel shell is one of the waste agricultural products obtained from production palm oil which is originating from the palm oil industry which common in Africa and Asia. Properties and characteristics of palm kernel shell (PKS) and marble chippings are summarized as specific gravity to include shape, thickness and texture include bulk density, water absorption and moisture content. Mechanical properties tests on palm kernel shell also include abrasion property and impact resistivity. Lightweight properties of concrete produced with palm kernel shell (PKS) have a limited substitute of coarse aggregate which include chemical and physical properties of granite dust were appraised. Mechanical properties of kernelrazzo floor finish tiles that were reviewed include compressive strength; curing and minimum requirement for Terrazzo floor finish and final for the area covered on this review is the consequence of acids, bases, and salts on the durability and strength of kernelrazzo floor finish.

Abstract:
Abstract The characteristics of the solid fuel pellets, such as its strength, durability and density can be used to assess its quality. During the transport and storage, pellets with low strength and durability produces dusts and ultimately resulting in equipment blockage, high pollution emissions, and an increased risk of fire and explosion. Therefore, pellet manufacturing process should be given priority to improve pellet quality. The use of binder in the production of pellets will aid in improving pellet quality. Therefore, this study investigates the influence of different binder percentages on the mechanical properties of K. senegelensis fuel pellets. Durability, unit density, bulk density and diametral compressive strength testing were carried out in compliance with international standards. It was discovered that pellets containing 4% cassava starch binder produces better results, particularly in terms of durability and compressive ldiametral strength.

Abstract:
Design and development of advanced steel types require establishing an optimal combination of mechanical strength, resistance to hydrogen degradation and durability, among others; however, the available tools for assessing some of these properties are limited. A novel tool for supporting the design and development of steel types was therefore created. This tool, called TriDes, is based on the phenomenon of mechanically stimulated gas emission and allows for determining mechanical properties and hydrogen concentration locally, with high spatial resolution and during different phases of the service life of construction steel elements. Its applicability to the development of pipe steel with improved durability, as well as to steel types used in marine environments, has been investigated.

Abstract:
This paper reports an experimental investigation on the mechanical and durability properties of concrete using dredged marine sand (DMS). Two sources of DMS were used and the influence of water treatment prior to mixing concrete was studied. Compressive strength, tensile strength and elastic modulus of concrete with DMS were evaluated and compared with concrete made of river sand. The corrosion performance of reinforced concrete using sea dredged aggregate was examined by half-cell potential test. The results showed that the grading of DMS is suitable for concrete production. The compressive strength values of concrete specimens made with DMS are slightly higher than that of concrete made with RS. The water cleaning method is effective to minimize the chance of steel corrosion by reducing the chloride content in DMS aggregates. The results from half-cell potential test indicated that the potential values of specimens with DMS are comparable to that of specimens with RS and hence the possibility of corrosion is low. The study revealed that DMS soon after washing, could be used as an alternative to river sand.

Abstract:
This research investigates the effect of using recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) as a partial replacement of natural aggregate (NA) on the mechanical and durability-related properties of a cement-stabilized recycled concrete aggregate (CSR) mixture. In this case, mixtures were prepared with 0%, 40%, 70%, and 100% (by weight) RCA to replace NA, and cement contents of 4%, 5%, and 6% were used in this study. Test parameters included the replacement ratio, cement content, and curing time. Tests were carried out to establish the unconfined compressive strength (UCS), indirect tensile strength (ITS), drying shrinkage, and water loss ratio of each mix proportion. The preliminary results of UCS and ITS tests indicated that the incorporation of RCA resulted in a decrease of strength compared with a cement-stabilized macadam (CSM) mixture, but the seven-day strength of the CSR mixture met the related requirements of road bases. The increase in cement content and curing time had an obvious effect on strength improvement. The drying shrinkage test showed that the drying shrinkage properties of the CSR mixture were obviously reduced with a high replacement ratio. It is evident that the CSM mixture presented a better drying shrinkage performance than that of the CSR mixture.
