Abstract This work aims to analyze the influence of the compressive strength of concrete columns in the design of a multi-floor building using the CAD/TQS computational tool. The strengths of the columns varied in increments of 5 MPa, from 35 MPa to 90 MPa, with a 35 MPa resistance in the remaining structural elements. Analyses of the horizontal deformability, stability parameters, and optimized sections, as well as quantities and cost of the main materials used (concrete, steel, and formwork), were performed. As a result, a 32% reduction to the total area of the columns was achieved; consequently, a reduction in material quantities and the total cost of the building was also achieved. Thus, greater durability was provided without major costs or loss in structural safety.

In this research, calcined diatomaceous earth from Aceh Besar, Indonesia was used as cement replacement in producing high strength concrete. Four concrete mixtures in which the percentage of cement replacement of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% by weight were studied. Four cylinder-specimens with 100 mm diameter and 200 mm high were prepared for each mixture. The compression load was applied on the specimens at the age of 28 days until the specimens failed. The mixture without calcined diatomaceous earth was more workable than that with diatomaceous earth. The compressive strength of concrete with diatomaceous earth in this study was almost the same for all mixture. However, those compressive strength was lower than the compressive strength of concrete without calcined diatomaceous earth for about 14.6%. Modulus of elasticity of high strength concrete decreased with increasing of cement replacement percentage.

Hartono, in this paper explain that to obtain the allowed characteristic compressive strength of concrete from a concrete construction is quite difficult , because it is influenced by the mix of materials used for the manufacture of the construction, in which the require material of the concrete mix had to be in accordance with Reinforced Concrete Indonesia Rule Year 1991. The main factor of mix material that affect permitted the compressive strength of concrete is aggregate characteristics, namely the coarse aggregate or crushed stone. Therefore this study is intended to determine the compressive strength of concrete with the characteristics of coarse aggregate material of crushed stone that comes from limestone. This research use Gresik PC mixture concrete, muntilan sand, and kricak of limestone. To determine concrete compressive characteristics strength of concrete, concrete specimen as many as 20 pieces, with mixed-use PC weight ratio of 1 : 2 Ps : 3, cube molded kricak with the size of 15 cm X 15 cm X 15 cm was made. From these results, it can be obtained that concrete compressive characteristic strength σ 1 bk = 215.41 kg / cm2. Keyword: Concrete construction

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

The number of high-rise reinforced concrete (RC) buildings is steadily increasing since 1980’s. The use of high strength concrete is indispensible for high-rise RC construction to ensure sufficient strength of the structure. The effect of high strength concrete can be significantly improved by the use of high strength and large size reinforcing bars. The yield strength of transverse reinforcement is limited in the current design codes to prevent possible sudden concrete failure due to over reinforcement. This paper presents the effects of the yield strength of transverse reinforcement and compressive strength of concrete on the structural behavior of reinforced concrete cylinders. Two parameters were considered in this investigation: compressive strength of concrete and the yield strength of transverse reinforcement (472MPa, 880MPa, and 1,430 MPa). Analytical and experimental results indicated that the structural behavior of RC cylinders confined with high strength transverse reinforcement is strongly influenced by compressive strength of concrete.

Abstract. The use of coal waste (Fly Ash) is currently being developed in building materials technology, as a high-strength concrete mix material. This study aims to determine the strength of concrete by adding fly ash as a substitute for cement in high-strength concrete mixtures. This research was conducted with an experimental method to obtain results and data that would confirm the variables studied. The total number of specimens used in this study were 36 pieces with different sizes of cube tests which were 15 cm x 15 cm x 15 cm. A total of 36 concrete samples were used to test the compressive strength of concrete with a percentage of Fly Ash in  0% (normal concrete), 20%, 25% and 30% with a concrete treatment age of 7 days, 21 days and 28 days. A total of 12 more samples were used to test water absorption in concrete at 28 days of maintenance. Each percentage percentage of Fly Ash uses 3 concrete test samples. The increase in compressive strength occurs at 7, 21 and 28 days in concrete. However, the compressive strength of concrete produced by concrete using the percentage of Fly Ash is always lower than the value of normal concrete compressive strength. From testing the compressive strength of concrete at 28 days of treatment with content of 0%, 20%, 25% and 30% Fly Ash obtained results of 45.87 MPa, 42.67 MPa, 40.89 MPa, and 35.27 MPa respectively

This paper tested the behaviour of 32 high-strength concrete columns confined by high-strength spirals under concentric compression. The test parameters included unconfined concrete compressive strength, spiral yield strength, volumetric ratio, and spiral spacing. The results showed that bulging and shear sliding were the two characteristic types of failure patterns of the thirty-two confined columns, depending on spiral spacing and concrete strength. Moreover, the spiral in most specimens did not yield at the confined concrete compressive strength. An analytical confinement model for high-strength concrete columns confined by high-strength spirals was proposed. In this proposed model, the calculated value of the spiral stress at the confined concrete compressive strength was used to calculate the feature points of the stressstrain curve. The proposed model showed good correlations with available experimental results of 64 columns.

Recently, there has been a tendency to use machine learning (ML)–based methods, such as artificial neural networks (ANNs), for more accurate estimates. This paper investigates the effectiveness of three different machine learning methods including radial basis function neural network (RBNN), multi-layer perceptron (MLP), and support vector regression (SVR), for predicting the ultimate strength of square and rectangular columns confined by various FRP sheets. So far, in the previous study, several experiments have been conducted on concrete columns confined by fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets with the results suggesting that the use of FRP sheets enhances the compressive strength of concrete columns effectively. Also, a wide range of experimental data (including 463 specimens) has been collected in this study for square and rectangular columns, confined by various FRP sheets. The comparison of ML-derived results with the experimental findings, which were in a very good agreement, demonstrated the ability of ML to estimate the compressive strength of concrete confined by FRP; the correlation coefficient (R2) for MLP, RBFNN, and SVR methods was equal to 0.97, 0.97, and 0.90, respectively. Similar accuracy was obtained by MLP and RBFNN, and they provided better estimates for determining the compressive strength of concrete confined by FRP. Also, the results showed that the difference between statistical indicators for training and testing specimens in the RBFNN method was greater than the MLP method, and this difference indicated the poor performance of RBFNN.

Abstract The compressive strength of concrete confined with spiral stirrups was an important parameter to evaluate the load-bearing capacity of concrete columns. The confinement provided by spiral stirrups let concrete under the triaxial compression state and improved the compressive strength of concrete. However, the relationships between concrete and stirrups were complex and the existing prediction models for evaluating the compressive strength of confined concrete were various. In this paper, an adaptive neural-fazzy inferenxe system (ANFIS) model was developed to evaluate the compressive strength of concrete confined with stirrups. A set of 231 experimental results of concrete confined with spiral stirrups were collected from the previous studies to establish a reliable database. The investigated parameters included the aspect ratio of specimens, the diameter, spacing, yield strength, and volumetric ratio of stirrups, the ratio of longitudinal reinforcement, and the compressive strength of concrete. The results showed that the ANFIS model predicted the compressive strength of confined concrete accurately. By comparing with existing models, the proposed ANFIS model had high applicable and reliability. The effects of the investigated parameters on the compressive strength of concrete were analyzed based on the proposed ANFIS model.
