In this paper, effects of nano-CaCO3 on compressive strength and Microstructure of high strength concrete in standard curing temperature(21±1°C) and low curing temperature(6.5±1°C) was studied. In order to improve the early strength of the concrete in low temperature, the early strength agent calcium nitrite was added into. Test results indicated that 0.5% dosage of nano-CaCO3 could inhibit the effect of calcium nitrite as early strength agent, but 1% and 2% dosage of nano-CaCO3 could improve the strength of the concrete by 13% and 18% in standard curing temperature and by 17% and 14% in low curing temperature at the age of 3days. According to the XRD spectrum, with the dosage up to 1% to 2%, nano-CaCO3 can change the orientation index significantly, leading to the improvement of strength of concrete both in standard curing temperature and low curing temperature.

Chopped Basalt Fiber

In order to improve the mechanical properties of high strength concrete, HSC, several studies have been conducted using fly ash, FA. Researchers have made it possible to achieve 100-150MPa high strength concrete. Despite the popularity of this FAHSC, there is a major shortcoming in that it becomes more brittle, resulting in less than 0.1% tensile strain. The main objective of this work was to evaluate the fresh and hardened properties of FAHSC utilizing chopped basalt fiber stands, CBFS, as an internal strengthening addition material. This was achieved through a series of experimental works using a 20% replacement of cement by FA together with various contents of CBFS. Test results of concrete mixes in the fresh state showed no segregation, homogeneousness during the mixing period and workability ranging from 60 to 110 mm. Early and long terms of compressive strength did not show any improvement by using CBFS; in fact, it decreased. This was partially substituted by the effect of FA. Whereas, the split and flexural strengths of FASHC were significantly improved with increasing the content of CBFS as well as the percentage of the split and flexural tensile strength to the compressive strength. Also, test results showed a progressive increase in the areas under the stress-strain curves of the FAHSC strains after the CBFS addition. Therefore, the brittleness and toughness of the FAHSC were enhanced and the pattern of failure moved from brittle failure to ductile collapse using CBFS. It can be considered that the CBFS is a suitable strengthening material to produce ductile FAHSC.

High strength concrete has become a design requirement in recent years due to increase in number of infrastructure projects. This paper presents the effect of incorporating Ultra Fine Slag (UFS) and steel fibre to obtain high strength concrete. To achieve target strength of about 80 MPa, it is proposed to the replacement of cement of 10%, 20% and 30% with UFS and incorporating 0.5% and 1.0% fibre in concrete. An experimental investigation is carried out to find the mechanical properties of the concrete. From the test results, it was observed that a compressive strength of 95 MPa was achieved at 30% replacement of cement with UFS and 1.0% fibre content. In addition, there was a significant improvement in split tensile strength and flexural strength of the concrete. This study demonstrates that a high strength concrete can be obtained from partial replacement of cement with UFS and addition of steel fibre.

In order to simulate the seismic behaviour of the prestressed high-strength concrete piles under working state, six full-scale prestressed high-strength concrete piles were tested under combined axial compression and cyclic horizontal loads. Different axial compression levels and prestressing levels of prestressed tendons were studied in this test programme. The failure mode, bending resistance, displacement ductility, stiffness degradation and energy dissipation of the prestressed high-strength concrete piles under different loading scenarios were measured and analysed. Test results indicated that the axial compression ratio and prestressing level of prestressed tendon significantly influenced the seismic performance of prestressed high-strength concrete piles. Theoretical models were developed to predict cracking, yielding and ultimate bending resistances of the prestressed high-strength concrete pile under combined compression and bending. Finite element model was also developed to simulate the ultimate strength behaviour of the prestressed high-strength concrete pile under combined compression and flexural bending. The accuracies of the theoretical and finite element model were checked through validations of their predictions against the reported test results.

The thermal conductivity of concrete is a key factor for efficient energy consumption in concrete buildings because thermal conductivity plays a significant role in heat transfer through concrete walls. This study investigated the effects of replacing fine aggregates with coal bottom ash (CBA) and the influence of curing age on the thermal properties of high-strength concrete with a compressive strength exceeding 60 MPa. The different CBA aggregate contents included 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%, and different curing ages included 28 and 56 days. For concrete containing CBA fine aggregate, the thermal and mechanical properties, including the unit weight, thermal conductivity, compressive strength, and ultrasonic velocity, were measured. The experimental results reveal that the unit weight and thermal conductivity of the CBA concrete were highly dependent on the CBA content. The unit weight, thermal conductivity, and compressive strength of the concrete decreased as the CBA content increased. Relationships between the thermal conductivity and the unit weight, thermal conductivity and compressive strength of the CBA concrete were proposed in the form of exponential functions. The equations proposed in this study provided predictions that were in good agreement with the test results. In addition, the test results show that there was an approximately linear relationship between the thermal conductivity and ultrasonic velocity of the CBA concrete.

This paper presents a new multigene genetic programming (MGGP) approach for estimation of elastic modulus of concrete. The MGGP technique models the elastic modulus behavior by integrating the capabilities of standard genetic programming and classical regression. The main aim is to derive precise relationships between the tangent elastic moduli of normal and high strength concrete and the corresponding compressive strength values. Another important contribution of this study is to develop a generalized prediction model for the elastic moduli of both normal and high strength concrete. Numerous concrete compressive strength test results are obtained from the literature to develop the models. A comprehensive comparative study is conducted to verify the performance of the models. The proposed models perform superior to the existing traditional models, as well as those derived using other powerful soft computing tools.

In order to study the strength change of high strength concrete shaft lining structure in underground complex environment resisting composite salt damage erosion, C70 high strength concrete test specimens were made and composite salt disaster solutions of different concentrations were compounded. The test results show that the coefficient of compressive strength and flexural strength of high strength concrete increase in early corrosion and then decline. The strength of specimen declines more quickly in higher corrosion solution concentration in latter time. The change law of the flexural strength is more complex than the compressive strength. Composite salt disaster solutions have little effect for no damage high strength concrete.
