In China many long span stone arch bridges were built in the last 5 decades, most of these bridges were built with micro-aggregate concrete joint masonry. However, the mechanical properties of this kind masonry have been seldom studied. Based on 5 groups of specimens with C30 or C40 micro-aggregate concrete joints and dressed blocks, shear strength of the masonry is tested and analyzed, friction coefficients and empiric formulas of shear strength of the masonry are presented in this paper, design value of shear strength of the masonry is assessed and discussed.

Stone masonry with micro-aggregate concrete joints has been widely used in long span arch bridges in China. However, the mechanical properties of this kind of high-strength masonry have been seldom studied. This paper presents compressive strength test study of eight groups of masonry specimens, which consist of C30 or C40 micro-aggregate concrete joints and five kinds of dressed stone blocks. The masonry mechanical behavior is described and test results are analyzed. An empiric formula of the masonry compressive strength is obtained. Finally, design value of masonry compressive strength is assessed and discussed.

This paper investigates feasibility of reinforcement method for fractured granite of slab type and beam members used as components of old stone masonry pagodas. Investigation of the effect of reinforcement to flexural and shear strength is performed using the concept for the high strength concrete since the mechanical properties of granite are similar to properties of high strength of concrete. In this experimental program two types of notched specimens are intended for failures with shear and flexural cracks. Intended fractured specimens are reinforced by metal rods, so called pinning method. The rods are inserted in holes and bonded with inorganic cement. The metal rods are supposed to transfer forces by tensile resistance in flexure and dowel action in shear. Increase in shear and flexural capacities and ductile behavior after sudden yielding of the metal rods are observed. The final failure cracks in reinforced specimens occurred different from interfaces along the original cracks. Locations of metal rods, their numbers, and construction of anchored rod are main variables to be examined for guidelines for reinforcement methods.

By the experimental studying on the basic mechanical properties of recycled concrete hollow block masonry, the compressive and shear behavior of recycled aggregate concrete hollow block masonry under different mortar strength were analyzed. Research indicated that the compressive and shear behavior of recycled aggregate concrete hollow block masonry was similar to that of ordinary concrete hollow block masonry. The normal formula was recommended to calculate the compressive strength of the masonry. The shear strength of the masonry was affected by the mortar strength. The shear strength calculation formula of recycled concrete hollow block masonry was proposed according to the formula of masonry design code. The calculating results were in good agreement with the test results.

Effect Of Microstructure

The present study aims to investigate the effect of microstructure and texture on mechanical properties of resistance spot welding of high strength steel 22MnB5 and 5A06 aluminium alloy as a function of welding parameters. The pseudo-nugget zones (NZs) at the steel side have undergone full recrystallisation with a fine-grained ferrite structure containing a small amount of retained austenite and a high hardness of approximately 500 HV, which is a 35% increase in hardness compared to the base material (BM) with fine lath martensitic structure. The NZs at the Al side contain both a recrystallisation texture and shear texture. Higher tensile shear strength with increasing weld time could be linked to the random texture at the Al side. The highest tensile shear strength was achieved at an intermetallic layer thickness of 4 mm.

Abstract UDIMAR B-300 is an 18% nickel maraging steel having excellent toughness and ductility at high strength levels. It is a fabricable and weldable ultra-high strength alloy steel combining the mechanical properties derived from precipitation hardening and martensitic transformation. It has increased cobalt content compared with UDIMAR B-250 (Alloy Digest SA-206, February 1967). This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, tensile properties, and compressive and shear strength as well as fracture toughness, creep, and fatigue. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SA-244.

<p>As a repair for corrosion damage of a steel bridge, a patch plate-repair using high strength bolts is generally applied. This method requires the surface of the damaged corroded part filled with an epoxy adhesive flat. The load transferring mechanism and slip resistance of such a combined joint with adhesives and high strength frictional bolts aren't clear. Since the shear strength of an adhesive might be increased due to constraint by the bolt axial force, the combined joint's slip resistance would be increased. To clarify the mechanical properties of the combined joint and to propose a new design method for such joints, two experiments have been conducted. The first was a frictional force experiment for adhesive specimens subjected to contact pressure on the surface to evaluate the constraint effect of adhesive on shear strength quantitatively. The last one is a slippage experiment for the combined joints to evaluate its slip coefficient.</p>

In this paper, three different kinds of steel fibers, being micro (M), end-hooked (H), and corrugated (C), commonly used in engineering applications, are added to high-strength lightweight aggregate concrete (HLAC) to study the effects of steel fiber and volume content ratio of fiber on the compressive, splitting tensile, and flexural strength of HLAC. The range of steel fiber volume content fraction studied is 0.5% to 2.0%. The research shows that different types of steel fiber have different effects on the mechanical properties and toughness of HLAC. M steel fibers have the best reinforcing performance on the mechanical properties. The study also shows that the toughness of M steel fibers is the best with the same fiber content. The toughening effect of H and C steel fibers can only reach 2/3 and 1/2 of M steel fibers, respectively. At the end of this paper, the unified strength formula and toughness index of these three kinds of high-strength steel fiber lightweight aggregate concrete (HSLAC) with different fiber contents are given to provide a reference for engineering practice and design.

Declining availability of the prime economic species in the Nigerian timber market has led to the introduction of Lesser-Used Species (LUS) as alternatives. Their acceptability demands information on the technical properties of their wood. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanical properties of Ficus vallis-choudae to determine its potential for timber. Three mature Ficus vallis-choudae trees were selected and harvested from a free forest area in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. Samples were collected from the base (10%), middle (50%), and top (90%) along the sampling heights of each tree, which was further partitioned into innerwood, centrewood, and outerwood across the sampling radial position. Investigations were carried out to determine the age, density, moisture content, impact strength, modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture, compressive strength parallel-to-grain, and shear strength parallel-to-grain. The mean impact bending strength, modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity, maximum shear strength parallel-to-grain, and maximum compression strength parallel-to-grain for Ficus vallis-choudae at 12% moisture content were 20.4 N/mm2, 85.8 N/mm2, 709 N/mm2, 10.7 N/mm2, and 33.6 N/mm2, respectively. The study found the species to be dense with high strength properties in comparison with well-known timbers used for constructional purposes.
