    Properties and Characteristics of Lean Concrete Made with Recycled Coarse Aggregate and Fly Ash

    Abstract: Qualitative aggregates have become scarce and expensive in various places in India, due to rapid enhancement in infrastructure activities essential for the development of new construction facilities. The use of waste materials in construction appears to be an attractive proposition because of their low cost, environmental considerations and depleting source of quality aggregates, if good performance can be ensured through appropriate technology. The problem of disposal of waste generated from …

    Experimental Study of Sulphate Attack on Steel Embedded in Reinforced Concrete

    Abstract: Corrosion is one of the biggest problems of steel in reinforced concrete (RC) structure, whichdeteriorates the durability of concrete structure at a considerable rate. In this paper, we havestudied the corrosion density, corrosion rate, and resistivity to a solution of 0.78 N H2SO4withthe help of electrochemical process to a temperature range of 307–309±1 K by using SternGeary equation and Tafel slope on 12 and 8 mmφ bar. The current work …

    Corrosion Behavior of Steel in Reinforced Concrete

    Abstract: There are many environments where steel is exposed to different types of cement as well as different water cement ration along with variable PH of water mixed during the preparation of concrete. Deterioration of steel in such environment causes corrosion and its rate depend upon the type of cement and type of environment because it not only corrode steel but also affect the concreting material as it contains various chemical …

    Experimental and Behavioral Study on Fly Ash Along with Lime to Make Bricks for Low Cost Housing Techniques

    Abstract: Fly ash is the waste material which is usually dump or used in concrete today as admixture and also replace by cement in concrete proportion and give equivalent strength to structure. A lot of research has been carried out for effective use of fly ash. As we know today fly ash bricks overcame to normal clay burnt bricks in all parameters like compressive strength, water absorption, durability, mortar profit, finishing …

    Stabilization of Black Cotton Soil with Blending of Coir Fiber

    Abstract: Stabilization of soil is a major challenge in civil engineering. About 20 % of land area in India is covered by black cotton soil. Structures built on black cotton soil may be damaged because of high swelling and shrinkage characteristics of this soil with variation of water content. Black cotton soil is an expansive soil which loses its strength in presence of water. On the other hand, it reflects behavior …

    Analytical Determination of Strength of Demolished Recycled Coarse Aggregate

    Abstract: Construction work has increased rapidly from the past two decades. With these construction activities going up, we find lacking of the construction materials, particularly aggregates. So, finding an alternate resource and their feasibility; study is the need of our project. Recycled or used aggregate proves to be a good alternative here. Therefore, the investigation was carried out using compressive strength test, confined to the objective we have tested and empirically …

    Use of waste paper sludge and polypropylene to study the performance of concrete

    Abstract: A large quantity of waste paper is generated from the offices and industries of the paper mill and it needs to be disposed off through proper waste management system or effectively reutilized in construction industry. Hypo plant in the paper industry generates large volume of waste in the form of slurry, disposal of which causes environmental problems. The increasing amount of waste is a concerning reality that arose various sustainability …
