Research Situation

This test summers up the research situation of rubber powder modifier. According to tests of density, flexural strength, compressive strength and cleavage strength, this test analyzes the basic mechanical properties and the variation of rubberized portland cement concrete which is mixing the silica fume modifier. The results show that the flexural strength, compressive strength and cleavage strength of concrete may increase when silica fume concrete admixture modifiers is mixed in cement concrete. The workability, density, flexural strength, compressive strength, ratio of compressive strength and cleavage strength of rubberized portland cement concrete gradually reduced with the increase in dosage of rubber. The rubber particles mixed with concrete which can when the rubber particle size is not more than 30% of the dosage of coarse aggregate, the fine pavement of rubberized portland cement concrete can be got.

And Performance

The main purpose of this research was to enhance the strength and durability of concrete in both design and construction of high performance concrete. Particularly, the strength in high performance concrete is achieved by optimising the gangue, fly ash and silica fume replacement for cement. The gangue has been used as a cementitious material. Using data from tests on laboratory studies, comparisons are made of the properties and performance of the gangue, fly ash and silica fume concrete with conventional Portland cement concrete of similar and same mixture proportions. The many technical benefits available to high performance concrete user, such as reduced heat evolution, lower permeability and higher strength at later ages, at the same time, in order to increase resistance to sulphate attack and alkali silica reaction. A number of recommendations are given for the effective use of gangue and fly ash in high performance concrete. The results show that 10% gangue, 15% slag, 15% fly ash, 10% silica fume of replacement was found to be an optimum level and demonstrated excellent performance in strength. Literature review on the use of different supplementary cementitious materials in concrete to enhance strength was also reported. The paper is intended to provide guidance for those concerned with the design, application and performance of high properties concrete in practice where gangue and fly ash can also help to reduce costs and energy demands in the production of concrete compared with conventional Portland cement concrete.
