From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 157) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT This research aims at evaluating the physico-mechanical and durability-related properties of concrete paving blocks containing cement kiln dust (CKD) used as a partial replacement or as an addition to...
-
From:Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering (Vol. 33, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedAbstract: This paper discusses the basic concepts involved in infrastructure, durability, and sustainability. At present, infrastructure facilities are designed and constructed on the basis of direct costs only, without...

From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 167) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT Portland cement concrete and fly ash concrete were subjected to the ASTM CI 202 rapid chloride permeability test (RCPT). When the RCPT was complete, the chloride profiles of the specimens were determined by...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 191) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT The objective of this paper is to study some characteristics of a component to buildings made with gypsum plaster (commercial--CGP and recycled--RGP), and wastes (red ceramic--RC and porcelain--PW) by...

From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 134) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT This paper aims to investigate the durability related performances of geopolymer composite materials that synthesized by alkali activation of metakaolin (MK) with reinforcement of wollastonite (WS),...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 202) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT Permeable pavements have been widely regarded as an effective way to restore the ecological functionality of urban road systems such as natural infiltration properties. However, pore structures are usually...

From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 174) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT The coupling action of calcium leaching and chloride attack is an important durability problem for the cement-based materials served in long-termly in the environmental water like seawater or groundwater...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 161) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT This paper presents an investigation on the effects of hydrothermal aging on carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites with different interfacial bonding strength. The combination of electrochemical...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 165) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT The high tensile strain capacity of engineered cementitious composites (ECC) is exceptional for cementitious material. In the present paper, a comprehensive review is conducted to summarize the fundamental...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 79) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT The performance-based approach, published by the International Federation for Structural Concrete (fib), was applied for the design of a RC element in a marine environment, with corrosion resistant...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 150) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT The aim of this study is to investigate the mechanical properties and durability of self-compacting mortars (SCMs) produced from ground pumice powder (GPP) as a mineral additive. In this scope, 8 series of...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 81) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT The use of waste glass, both as a crushed glass aggregate and in a finely ground form, as a pozzolanic material in concrete has been extensively studied in the past. However, the combined use of finely...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 66) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT The effect of particle size on alkali-silica reaction (ASR) was investigated to clarify the difference in long-term ASR expansions in mortars using recycled green and brown glass as fine aggregates. Test...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 185) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT This study is primarily centered towards a quantitative evaluation of the corrosion behavior of commonly used masonry chip concrete mixes as an assessor of durability performance of infrastructures. In South...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 21, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedAbstract Chloride ingress is one of the main causes of corrosion of the reinforcement in concrete structures, certainly for structures that are highly exposed to chlorides, such as off-shore or on-shore constructions...
-
From:Advances in Materials Science and EngineeringPeer-ReviewedThe effects of nano-Ti[O.sub.2] (NT) on microstructures and mechanical properties of cement mortars were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP)....
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 148) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT Concrete fails to withstand against corrosive environment leads to depassivation, corrosion, expansion and concrete cracking. The present investigation focuses on the testing of the durability of cement...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 133) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT Development of roller-compacted concrete (RCC) caused major shift in construction practice of mass concrete and pavement slabs. Large amounts of mineral admixtures (fly ash, slag, and natural pozzolan) are...
-
From:Construction and Building Materials (Vol. 83) Peer-ReviewedABSTRACT This study aims to quantitatively estimate the geometric effect of steel bar on the resistivity measurement above reinforcement as a method of evaluating concrete resistivity. For this purpose, the geometric...
