For the recycling of rapid-cooled steel slag (RCSS), various specimens were prepared with the different replacement ratios of RCSS and the addition ratios of polymer binder. The physical properties of these specimens were then investigated by compressive strength test, flexural strength test, water absorption test, hot water resistance test, measurement of pore distribution and observation of micro-structures using scanning electron microscope(SEM). Results showed that compressive and flexural strength increased with the addition ratios of polymer binder and replacement ratios of RCSS, but those strengths decreased reversely when addition ratio of polymer binder and replacement ratio of RCSS were excessively high. By the hot water resistance test, the compressive strength and flexural strength decreased remarkably and total pore volume increased but bulk density decreased. SEM observation of structure before hot water resistance test revealed very compact infusion of structure but decomposition or thermal degradation appeared in polymer binder when observed after the hot water resistance test.

ABSTRACTMechanic characteristics of hard mortar are: compressive strength, flexural strength, tensile strength, and adhesion power. In the meantime, at Building Material Laboratory of Civil Engineering, State Polytechnic of Jakarta, test of tensile strength and adhesion power of mortar cannot be conducted because of the absence of the test equipment.This research aims to provide electric motor-powered equipment for tensile strength test of mortar in order to complete the equipment at Building Material Laboratory of Civil Engineering, State Polytechnic of Jakarta. The particular aim of the research is to make prototype of mortar tensile strength test equipment.In this research a prototype of motor-powered mortar tensile strength test equipment and the specimens, to test the performance of the equipment, were prepared. By examining the obstacles and shortcomings, this equipment is a development of the previous research by Muhtarom Riyadi and the team, 2015. The specimens, as the sample to test the equipment, were prepared by the ratio of one part of cement and three part of fine aggregate, with the total number of the specimens of 50 pieces.By analyzing the result of observation in trial period, the equipment could function as it should be. The magnitude of maximum tensile strength that causes the mortar specimens to break depends on the quality, age, and tensile area of mortar, which magnitude can be observed in manometer or scale with the unit of kilogram.Keywords: equipment, tensile, mortar, electric motorABSTRAKSifat mekanis mortar keras antara lain kuat tekan, kuat lentur, kuat tarik dan daya lekat.

Abstract This study includes the effect of using different dosages of integral waterproof Admixture and silica fume on some mechanical properties of concrete. Concrete improved by using different ratios of integral water proof admixture(IWP admixture) to increase strength and durability, this admixture used as percentages from cement weight in each mix ranged from 0.0% to 2% ( 0.0, 1.0%, 1.2%,1.4%,1.6%,1.8%, and 2%), compressive strength test done for cubes with (10*10*10) cm for each mix. The flexural strength test was done by (10*10*40) cm beams and tested after 28 days of curing. comparison study was made between silica fume mixes properties and mixes without silica fume. Adding IWP admixture leads to increase mechanical properties of ordinary concrete, the reference mix shows compressive strength equal to 26.38 MPa, while mixes with 2% IWP gives 38.8 MPa in this study. The study also includes the effect of using 2 main dosages of silica fume to the mixes that contain IWP, the new concrete with two admixtures show better values of compressive, tensile and flexural strength comparing with mixes with only IWP, the compressive strength increased from 38.8 MPa for ordinary IWP mixes to 52.3 MPa for 10% silica fume concrete mixes, and also the flexural strength increased from 4.8 MPa for mixes with only IWP to 7.3 MPa for mixes modified with 10 % silica fume. Study include also using waste glass as fine aggregate in mixes contain IWP and 10% silica fume and that show more increment in mechanical properties also.

Today’s world is always leads to development in technology as well as the economic growth though sometime these will affect the environment badly. That’s why world environmental commission coined the termed called sustainable development where development takes place without hampering the others’ needs. Concrete industry is rapidly growing industry in India which consumes lots of natural resources during the production of concrete. Here Stone dust is used as a sustainable material in place of sand partially. M25 grade of concrete has been chosen for the experiments. Different mechanical properties of concrete like compressive strength, Split tensile, flexural strength etc. and Microstructural features like SEM, EDX have been included in this study. Compressive Strength and flexural strength test results shown the increase in the strength. Sulphate Resistance Properties have been tested by curing the cubes in the MgSO4 solution and increase in weight has been observed. Similarities are found in the SEM pictures

Cement Pastes

Concrete made from ordinary Portland cement is one of the most widely used construction materials due to its excellent compressive strength. However, concrete lacks ductility resulting in low tensile strength and flexural strength, and poor resistance to crack formation. Studies have demonstrated that the addition of graphene oxide (GO) nanosheet can effectively enhance the compressive and flexural properties of ordinary Portland cement paste, confirming GO nanosheet as an excellent candidate for using as nano-reinforcement in cement-based composites. To date, the majority of studies have focused on cement pastes and mortars. Only limited investigations into concretes incorporating GO nanosheets have been reported. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the slump and physical properties of concrete reinforced with GO nanosheets at additions from 0.00% to 0.08% by weight of cement and a water–cement ratio of 0.5. The study demonstrates that the addition of GO nanosheets improves the compressive strength, flexural strength, and split tensile strength of concrete, whereas the slump of concrete decreases with increasing GO nanosheet content. The results also demonstrate that 0.03% by weight of cement is the optimum value of GO nanosheet dosage for improving the split tensile strength of concrete.

Raw clay is used nowadays in construction as a component of mortars and plasters and as a binder in composites based on straw or shives. It is a material with good sorption properties and vapor permeability, but it is susceptible to shrinkage, is not resistant to water, and also is characterized by low mechanical strength, which makes it impossible to be used, for example, in external plasters. Various additives and admixtures are used to improve selected properties of clay mortars. The article presents the research results and assessment of the effect of glauconite clay mortar modification with an admixture of linseed oil varnish on selected properties. Admixtures in the amounts of 1%, 2%, and 3% in relation to clay weight were used. Flexural and compressive strength, water resistance, shrinkage, drying capacity, density, and porosity of mortar, were tested. The admixture of linseed oil varnish in the amounts used in the investigation had a positive effect on some of the tested properties; regardless of the quantity of the admixture, the modified mortars had better parameters concerning flexural strength, shrinkage reduction, and water resistance than the reference mortar, without admixture.
