Structural Failures

In modern days for structures in coastal areas it has been observed that the premature structural failures are occurs due to corrosion of the reinforcements of the designed structural member. The corrosion causes the structural damage which in turn leads to reduction in the bearing capacity of the concerned structural members. The aim of this study was to study the effect of partial replacement of fly ash to minimize the corrosion effect. Beams were designed and corroded by using artificial method known accelerated corrosion method. The beams were then tested for flexural and bond strength. Also the weight loss of the reinforced bars was been determined using electrical resistivity method. The fly ash will replace by 10% and 15%.The strength will calculate at varying percentage of corrosion at 10% and 15%. Beams will cast at M25 grade concrete. The flexural strength will test by using UTM and the bond strength will calculate using pullout test.

Dalam penelitian ini dilakukan serangkaian pengujian untuk mengetahui sifat fisik dari material penyusun (agregat), yang kemudian dirancang komposisi rencana beton dengan mutu K250 (normal/kontrol) dan K250 dengan aditif Silica Fume 10% dari berat semen. Variasi campuran menggunakan tiga tipe semen yang berbeda yaitu Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC)/ Semen Tipe I, Portland Composite Cement (PCC) dan Semen Tipe II. Proses dilanjutkan dengan pembuatan sampel uji silinder berukuran 15 cm x 30 cm (karakteristik kuat tekan, ketahanan sulfat), sampel uji prisma berukuran 20 cm x 20 cm x 12 cm (karakteristik permeabilitas) dan sampel uji kubus berukuran 15 cm x 15 cm x 15 cm (untuk penetrasi klorida). Pengamatan dilakukan untuk melihat karakteristik beton K250 dengan penambahan silica fume 10%, dibandingkan dengan beton normal sebagai acuan, serta aplikasinya dalam lingkungan normal maupun asam (Sulfat, Klor). Hasil kuat tekan memperlihatkan, bahwa campuran dengan menggunakan semen PCC memiliki nilai kuat tekan rata-rata diatas semen OPC. Penambahan silica fume pada campuran semen PCC akan menaikkan nilai kuat tekan sebesar 4,2% dibandingkan beton normal dengan produk semen yang sama, meskipun nilai rasio air-semen nya membesar menjadi 0,71 karena penambahan air. Nilai kuat tekan terbesar diperoleh untuk campuran beton dengan semen Tipe II. Campuran dengan semen PCC (2) menunjukkan nilai penetrasi yang lebih kecil dibandingkan campuran lainnya, hal ini mengindikasikan produk beton yang terbentuk memiliki kepadatan yang lebih baik dari produk campuran lainnya dan tidak porous, sehingga dapat dikatakan memiliki tingkat durabilitas yang cukup baik. Untuk ketahanan terhadap serangan sulfat, beton dengan menggunakan campuran semen tipe II mengalami tingkat pelapukan/penggerusan penampang (scaling) yang lebih besar dibandingkan campuran beton lainnya, meskipun begitu hal ini tidak mempengaruhi nilai kuat tekannya. Untuk produk dengan semen PCC, serangan sulfat tidak mempengaruhi nilai kuat tekannya, bahkan cenderung naik bila dibandingkan pada usia 28 hari.Kata kunci: aspek durabilitas, tipe semen, pemanfaatan silica fume

This work aims at maximum exploitation of petroleum waste sludge as additive to portland cement to prepare blended cements and hence increasing its production capacity without further firing. This will decrease the main cement industry problems involving environmental pollution such as releasing gases and high-energy consumption during industry and hence maximizes the production economics. Six batches of ordinary portland cement (OPC) mixed with different proportions of petroleum waste sludge (PWS) donated as C1 (control batch contains no PWS), C2 (contains 90 wt.% of OPC+10 wt.% of PWS), C3 (contains 80 wt.% of OPC+20 wt.% of PWS), C4 (contains 70 wt.% of OPC+30 wt.% of PWS), C4 (contains 60 wt.% of OPC+40 wt.% of PWS) and C6 (contains 50 wt.% of OPC+50 wt.% of PWS), were prepared and mixed individually with the suitable amount of mixing water. Cement mixes C2, C3 and C4 showed improved cementing and physicomechanical properties compared with pure cement (C1) with special concern of mix C4. Such improvement is due to the relatively higher surface area as well as the high content of kaolinite and quartz in the added PWS (high pozzalanity) favoring the hydration process evidenced by the increase in the cement hydration product (portlandite mineral (Ca (OH) 2).

Most of the currently used concretes are based on ordinary Portland cement (OPC) which results in a high carbon dioxide footprint and thus has a negative environmental impact. Replacing OPCs, partially or fully by ecological binders, i.e., supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) or alternative binders, aims to decrease the carbon dioxide footprint. Both solutions introduced a number of technological problems, including their performance, when exposed to low, subfreezing temperatures during casting operations and the hardening stage. This review indicates that the present knowledge enables the production of OPC-based concretes at temperatures as low as −10 °C, without the need of any additional measures such as, e.g., heating. Conversely, composite cements containing SCMs or alkali-activated binders (AACs) showed mixed performances, ranging from inferior to superior in comparison with OPC. Most concretes based on composite cements require pre/post heat curing or only a short exposure to sub-zero temperatures. At the same time, certain alkali-activated systems performed very well even at −20 °C without the need for additional curing. Chemical admixtures developed for OPC do not always perform well in other binder systems. This review showed that there is only a limited knowledge on how chemical admixtures work in ecological concretes at low temperatures and how to accelerate the hydration rate of composite cements containing high amounts of SCMs or AACs, when these are cured at subfreezing temperatures.

Long Time

Experimental procedures used for the study of reinforcement to concrete bond have been hampered for a long time by inconsistencies and large differences in the obtained behavior, such as bond strength and mode of failure, depending on the specimen form and setup used in the test. Bond is controlled by the mechanics of the interface between reinforcement and concrete, and is sensitive to the influences of extraneous factors, several of which underlie, but are not accounted for, in conventional pullout test setups. To understand and illustrate the importance of specimen form and testing arrangement, a series of computational simulations are used in the present work on eight distinct variants of conventional bar pullout test setups that are used routinely in experimental literature for the characterization of bond-slip laws. The resulting bond strength increase generated by unaccounted confining stress fields that arise around the bar because of the boundary conditions of the test setup is used to classify the tests with respect to their relevance with the intended use of the results. Of the pullout setups examined, the direct tension pullout test produced the most conservative bond strength results, completely eliminating the contributions from eccentricity and passive confinement.

Geopolymer Composites

A geopolymer has been reckoned as a rising technology with huge potential for application across the globe. Dolomite refers to a material that can be used raw in producing geopolymers. Nevertheless, dolomite has slow strength development due to its low reactivity as a geopolymer. In this study, dolomite/fly ash (DFA) geopolymer composites were produced with dolomite, fly ash, sodium hydroxide, and liquid sodium silicate. A compression test was carried out on DFA geopolymers to determine the strength of the composite, while a synchrotron Micro-Xray Fluorescence (Micro-XRF) test was performed to assess the elemental distribution in the geopolymer composite. The temperature applied in this study generated promising properties of DFA geopolymers, especially in strength, which displayed increments up to 74.48 MPa as the optimum value. Heat seemed to enhance the strength development of DFA geopolymer composites. The elemental distribution analysis revealed exceptional outcomes for the composites, particularly exposure up to 400 °C, which signified the homogeneity of the DFA composites. Temperatures exceeding 400 °C accelerated the strength development, thus increasing the strength of the DFA composites. This appears to be unique because the strength of ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and other geopolymers composed of other raw materials is typically either maintained or decreases due to increased heat.
