Epoxy Emulsion

Cement emulsified asphalt (CEA) mortars achieve insufficient bond strength with substrate cement concrete slab. To ameliorate problems emerging from this, the emulsified asphalt (EA) in CEA mortars was partly replaced by epoxy emulsion (EE) at contents of 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%, yielding CEA mortars with enhanced properties. The bond strength, mechanical strength, toughness, and durability (including drying shrinkage and erosion resistance) of modified CEA mortars were assessed. The results showed that partial replacement of EA with EE improved the bond strength, mechanical strength, drying shrinkage, and erosion resistance of CEA mortars. A good correlation was found between the proportions of the EE replacement and the bond strength of CEA mortars. Partial replacement of EA with a small amount of EE exerted no significant effect on the toughness of CEA mortar. The stronger network structure of CEA mortars containing EE improved the compactness, thus improving the performance of CEA mortars. Based on these findings, EE is suggested as partial replacement of EA for enhancing the properties of CEA mortars.

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.

This paper investigates the mechanical and shrinkage behaviour of concrete with recycled cement (RC) thermoactivated from waste cement paste and waste concrete. Overall, compared to ordinary Portland cement (OPC), for the same water/binder ratio, the mechanical strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity were not significantly influenced by the incorporation of RC. The elasticity modulus decreased with the addition of RC and the shrinkage tended to increase at high RC content. The incorporation of up to 15% RC allowed the production of workable concrete with identical shrinkage and similar to higher mechanical strength than concrete with only OPC. RC proved to be a very promising more eco-efficient supplementary cementitious material.

Repair Mortars

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of added polymers on the properties of repair mortars. Two types of polymers, ethylene vinyl acetate and polyvinyl acetate–vinyl carboxylate, were used as a replacement for 3%, 5%, and 8% of the cement (by weight). All tests were conducted using two water–cement ratios of 0.5 and 0.6. The effectiveness of the repair materials was evaluated according to setting time, drying shrinkage, thermal expansion, compressive strength, and bond strength. Specimens containing polyvinyl acetate–vinyl carboxylate at a water–cement ratio of 0.5 presented the highest compressive and bond strength. Specimens containing ethylene vinyl acetate presented strength characteristics exceeding those of the control at 28 days. The drying shrinkage of polyvinyl acetate–vinyl carboxylate specimens was similar to that of the control. At a water–cement ratio of 0.5, the thermal expansion of polyvinyl acetate–vinyl carboxylate specimens was lower than that of ethylene vinyl acetate specimens; however, at a water–cement ratio of 0.6, the thermal expansion was independent of the type of polymer.

Abstract Aluminum slag waste generated from the smelting process of bauxite was used to prepare roof tiles samples. Clay was substituted by slag waste in percentages reaching 40% in the basic mix and the plasticity of the obtained mud was determined. This was followed by pressing the mud in steel molds and drying. The effect of waste addition on drying shrinkage was subsequently assessed. Firing of the green bodies was carried out at three temperatures (900, 1000 and 1100oC) and hour soaking at each temperature. Fired roof tile properties improved on increasing the percentage of alumina sludge and firing temperature possibly because of the presence of high amounts of fluxing oxides in aluminum slag. This caused a drop in porosity that increased the mechanical strength of tiles. The results showed that the substitution of clay by 40% waste and firing at 1100oC resulted in products conforming to ASTM C-1167 for clay type roof tiles. Cold water absorption dropped to 12%, below the maximum permissible limit of 15%, the value of Saturation Coefficient was 0.83, below the 0.86 limit and the obtained breaking strength of 3370N significantly exceeded the minimum requirement of 890N.

Partial Cement Replacement

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is an innovative construction material in the construction industry. It is a highly fluid and stable concrete that flows under its own weight and fills completely the formwork. The SCC requires high powder content (mainly of cement) up to 600kg/ to achieve its properties. This will be problematic because increasing the cement content is not feasible, and may cause high cost and some other technical problems such as higher heat of hydration and higher drying shrinkage. This paper investigates the effect of limestone powder (LSP) on fresh and hardened properties of SCC due to the use of LSP as a partial cement replacement. For comparison, a control sample of concrete was prepared without LSP to compare it with the various samples containing different percentages of LSP as a partial replacement of cement. Four mixes with a constant amount of (superplasticizer, sand, coarse aggregate, and water) at various replacement levels of 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% from the cement weight were prepared. The experimental results show that the LSP can be effectively used as a partial cement replacement on SCC to reduced cost and enhanced the performance of SCC in fresh and hardened stages.

Bonding System

The paper describes an experiment focusing on the way the material system influences the bond strength of large-format tiles installed on concrete substrate during mechanical loading under conditions that correspond to real-life application. This involves a controllable mechanical load applied over an area of a test model while observing its condition using non-destructive methods (ultrasonic pulse velocity test, acoustic emission method, strain measurement, and acoustic tracing). The model consisted of a concrete slab onto which were mounted four different systems with large-format tiles with the dimensions of 3 m × 1 m. The combinations differed in the thickness of the tile, the adhesive, and whether or not a fabric membrane was included in the adhesive bed. The experiment showed that the loading caused no damage to the ceramic tile. All the detected failures took place in the adhesive layer or in the concrete slab.
