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.

Plenty of research works in India and abroad focusing on the reuse or recycling of waste materials from many industries. Among that finding out suitable cementitious material for the replacement of cement is significant. Many waste materials such as fly ash, silica fume, GGBS, metakaoline, micro materials, quartz power, etc. are tried out for replacing partially or full of cement in concrete. A new ultrafine material called Alccofine is tried out for replacing partially in this research. M20 and M60 grade of concrete is intended to study the performance of normal and high strength concrete by replacing the cement with alccofine of different dosages.  Previous researches showed that the replacement of alccofine increases the strength. Design mix made for M20 and M60 grade and cubes casted with various percentage of alccofine with cement. Hence the study is aimed to assess the bond behavior of M20 and M60 grade of concrete structures as an alternate to the conventional materials. The cubes are prepared initially for the design mix and determined the strength of concrete. Then specimens are prepared for the bond test and tested using pullout test methods. The results are analyzed and observed that the bond strength is increased with increase of alccofine replacement to certain dosage.

Ash Disposal

Now-a-days energy planners are aiming to increase the use of renewable energy sources and nuclear to meet the electricity generation. But till now coal-based power plants are the major source of electricity generation. Disadvantages of coal-based thermal power plants is disposal problem of fly ash and pond ash. It was earlier considered as a total waste and environmental hazard thus its use was limited, but now its useful properties have been known as raw material for various application in construction field. Fly ash from the thermal plants is available in large quantities in fine and coarse form. Fine fly ash is used in construction industry in some amount and coarse fly ash is subsequently disposed over land in slurry forms. In India around 180 MT fly is produced and only around 45% of that is being utilized in different sectors. Balance fly ash is being disposed over land. It needs one acre of land for ash disposal to produce 1MW electricity from coal. Fly ash and pond ash utilization helps to reduce the consumption of natural resources. The fly ash became available in coal based thermal power station in the year 1930 in USA. For its gainful utilization, scientist started research activities and in the year 1937, R.E. Davis and his associates at university of California published research details on use of fly ash in cement concrete. This research had laid foundation for its specification, testing & usages. This study reports the potential use of pond-ash and fly-ash as cement in concrete mixes. In this present study of concrete produced using fly ash, pond ash and OPC 53 grade will be carried. An attempt will be made to investigate characteristics of OPC concrete with combined fly ash and pond ash mixed concrete for Compressive Strength test, Split Tensile Strength test, Flexural Strength test and Durability tests. This paper deals with the review of literature for fly-ash and pond-ash as partial replacement of cement in concrete.

There have been a few attempts to develop prediction models of splitting tensile strength and reinforcement-concrete bond strength of FAGC (low-calcium fly ash geopolymer concrete), however, no model can be used as a design equation. Therefore, this paper aimed to provide practical prediction models. Using 115 test results for splitting tensile strength and 147 test results for bond strength from experiments and previous literature, considering the effect of size and shape on strength and structural factors on bond strength, this paper developed and verified updated prediction models and the 90% prediction intervals by regression analysis. The models can be used as design equations and applied for estimating the cracking behaviors and calculating the design anchorage length of reinforced FAGC beams. The strength models of PCC (Portland cement concrete) overestimate the splitting tensile strength and reinforcement-concrete bond strength of FAGC, so PCC’s models are not recommended as the design equations.

Geopolymer concrete, also known as an earth-friendly concrete, has been under continuous study due to its environmental benefits and a sustainable alternative to conventional concrete construction. The supplies of many source materials, such as fly ash (FA) or slag (SG), to produce geopolymer concrete (GPC) may be limited; however, quarry rock dust (QRD) wastes (limestone, dolomite, or silica powders) formed by crushing rocks appear virtually endless. Although significant experimental research has been carried out on GPC, with a major focus on the mix design development, rheological, durability, and mechanical properties of the GPC mixes; still the information available on the structural behavior of GPC is rather limited. This has implications in extending GPC application from a laboratory-based technology to an at-site product. This study investigates the structural behavior of quarry-rock-dust-incorporated fiber-reinforced GPC columns under concentric and eccentric loading. In this study, a total of 20 columns with 200 mm square cross-section and 1000 mm height were tested. The FA and SG were used as source materials to produce GPC mixtures. The QRD was incorporated as a partial replacement (20%) of SG. The conventional concrete (CC) columns were prepared as the reference specimens. The effect of incorporating quarry rock dust as a replacement of SG, steel fibers, and loading conditions (concentric and eccentric loading) on the structural behavior of GPC columns were studied. The test results revealed that quarry rock dust is an adequate material that can be used as a source material in GPC to manufacture structural concrete members with satisfactory performance. The general performance of the GPC columns incorporating QRD (20%) is observed to be similar to that of GPC columns (without QRD) and CC columns. The addition of steel fibers considerably improves the loading capacity, ductility, and axial load–displacement behavior of the tested columns. The load capacities of fiber-reinforced GPC columns were about 5–7% greater in comparison to the CC columns. The spalling of concrete cover at failure was detected in all plain GPC columns, whereas the failure mode of all fiber-reinforced GPC columns is characterized with surface cracking leading to disintegration of concrete cover.
