Based on the technology of high performance concrete, high performance recycled pavement concrete (HPRPC) were developed by double -mixture of fly ash and superplasticizer. The dry shrinkage and plastic shrinkage cracking evaluation test were conducted. As is shown by the results, the compressive strength of HPRPC at 28d are exceed in 60MPa and dry shrinkage at 120d are less than 500με. By contrast, the cracking -resistant performance of HPRPC-7 is superior to that of HPRPC-2.

The aim of this study was to study the effect of nanoSiO2 on durability of high performance concrete. Four different nanoSiO2 contents (1%, 2%, 3% and 4%) were used. The results indicate that the content of nanoSiO2 has great effect on the durability of high performance concrete. With the increase of nanoSiO2 content, both of the length of water permeability and the carbonation depth of concrete are decreasing gradually, and the water impermeability and the carbonation resistance of concrete are increasing gradually. However, with the increase of nanoSiO2 content, there is a tendency of increase on the dry shrinkage strain of 90 days of high performance concrete, and the anti-dry-shrinkage cracking property of concrete is decreasing.

Bridge Deck Pavement

Based on forced vibration tests for high-performance concrete (HPC), the influence of bridge vibration induced by traveling vehicle on compressive strength and durability of HPC has been studied. It is concluded that 1 d and 2 d compressive strength of HPC decreased significantly, and the maximum reduction rate is 9.1%, while 28 d compressive strength of HPC had a slight lower with a 3% maximal drop under the action of two simple harmonic vibrations with 2 Hz, 3 mm amplitude, and 4 Hz, 3 mm amplitude. Moreover, the vibration had a slight effect on the compressive strength of HPC when the simple harmonic vibration had 4 Hz and 1 mm amplitude; it is indicated that the amplitude exerts a more prominent influence on the earlier compressive strength with the comparison of the frequency. In addition, the impact of simple harmonic vibration on durability of HPC can be ignored; this shows the self-healing function of concrete resulting from later hydration reaction. Thus, the research achievements mentioned above can contribute to learning the laws by which bridge vibration affects the properties of concrete and provide technical support for the design and construction of the bridge deck pavement maintenance.

Two Stages

The thickness of corroded concrete layer and the compressive strength of prisms under the action of sulfate and chloride salt were investigated by ultrasonic test and compression test, respectively. The results show that under the single action of sulfate, the strength of concrete experienced two stages: a slow growth stage and a rapid descent stage. Correspondingly, under the combined action of sulfate and chloride, the concrete strength experienced another two stages: a slow growth stage and a slow degradation stage. The existence of chloride inhibited the corrosion damage of concrete in a certain extent. It was found that higher concentration of chlorine salt would lead to a stronger inhibition effect. A good consistency was observed among corrosion layer thickness, compressive strength and X-ray diffraction results. The inhabitation of chloride to the sulfate corrosion of concrete was proved.

The Cost

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is a kind of high-tech cementitious material with superb mechanical and durability properties compared to other types of concrete. However, due to the high content of cement and silica fume used, the cost and environmental impact of UHPC is considerably higher than conventional concrete. For this reason, several efforts around the world have been made to develop UHPC with greener and less expensive local pozzolans. This study aimed to design and produce UHPC using local fly ash available in Colombia. A numerical optimization, based on Design of Experiments (DoE) and multi-objective criteria, was performed to obtain a mixture with the proper flow and highest compressive strength, while simultaneously having the minimum content of cement. The results showed that, despite the low quality of local fly ashes in Colombia, compressive strength values of 150 MPa without any heat treatment can be achieved.

Abstract This paper presents the details of optimized mix design for normal strength and high performance concrete using particle packing method. A critical review of mix design methods have been carried out for normal strength concrete using American Concrete Institute (ACI) and Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) methods highlighting the similarities and differences towards attaining a particular design compressive strength. Mix design for M30 and M40 grades of concrete have been carried out using ACI, BIS and particle packing methods. Optimization of concrete mix has been carried out by means of particle packing method using EMMA software, which employs modified Anderson curve to adjust the main proportions. Compressive strength is evaluated for the adjusted proportions and it is observed that the mixes designed by particle packing method estimates compressive strength closer to design compressive strength. Further, particle packing method has been employed to optimize the ingredients of high performance concrete and experiments have been carried out to check the design adequacy of the desired concrete compressive strength.
