This study was conducted to assess the effect of CO2 curing on the compressive strength of high strength pervious concrete. The factors studied to evaluate compressive strength of concrete on CO2 curing pressure, curing time, and age of specimen at testing. Three Aggregate sizes, three CO2 curing pressures, three CO2 curing time, and three testing ages were used in this investigation. The research tried to produce a high strength pervious concrete and use carbon dioxide for curing to find out whether it could enhance the compressive strength. The results show that the compressive strength of the control group increases rapidly and its 90-day compressive strength closed to 60 MPa. The 1-day compressive strength has a major impact after CO2 curing and their strength decreased by about 0% to 50% as compared to the control group. However, it is observed that there is only slight difference in relationship between modulus of elasticity and compressive strength obtained from 100 by 200mm cylinders with CO2 curing.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

In this research, calcined diatomaceous earth from Aceh Besar, Indonesia was used as cement replacement in producing high strength concrete. Four concrete mixtures in which the percentage of cement replacement of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% by weight were studied. Four cylinder-specimens with 100 mm diameter and 200 mm high were prepared for each mixture. The compression load was applied on the specimens at the age of 28 days until the specimens failed. The mixture without calcined diatomaceous earth was more workable than that with diatomaceous earth. The compressive strength of concrete with diatomaceous earth in this study was almost the same for all mixture. However, those compressive strength was lower than the compressive strength of concrete without calcined diatomaceous earth for about 14.6%. Modulus of elasticity of high strength concrete decreased with increasing of cement replacement percentage.

The influence of curing time on the mechanical property of the phosphoaluminate cement (PAC) was investigated, and the mechanism was discussed as well. The phase composition and morphology of hydration products, electrical properties, porosity and pore size distribution of PAC cured different age were analyzed with XRD, EIS and MIP. The results showed PAC has the property of early-high strength, and the compressive strength of PAC cured for 1 day was about 70% of 28 days’. The main hydration products of PAC are micro-crystal phase and gel of phosphate and phosphoaluminate which formed compacter microstructure. In addition, there are no calcium hydroxide (CH) and ettringite (AFt) produced during the process of hydration. The compressive strength of PAC increased with age, which was due to more products continuously produced. The ac resistance analysis manifested as the change of the nyquist pattern and resistance value.

Abstract This study investigates the use of steel fibers and hybrid composite with a total fibers content of 2% on the high strength flowing concrete and determines the density, compressive strength, static modulus of elasticity, flexural strength and toughness indices for the mixes. The results show that the inclusion of more than 0.5% of palm fibers in hybrid fibers mixes reduces the compressive strength. The hybrid fibers can be considered as a promising concept and the replacement of a portion of steel fibers with palm fibers can significantly reduce the density, enhance the flexural strength and toughness. The results also indicates that the use of hybrid fibers (1.5 steel fibers + 0.5% palm fibers) in specimens increases significantly the toughness indices and thus the use of hybrid fibers combinations in reinforced concrete would enhance their flexural toughness & rigidity and enhance their overall performances

This study investigates the self-curing concrete using baby polymer diapers as substitute method of curing process in order to improve mechanical and physical properties of concrete. Three different proportion of baby polymer diapers which are 1%, 3% and 5% were mix with concrete. Slump, compressive strength and drying shrinkage test were performed in order to study the workability, strength and durability of the concrete. All concrete were tested for 1, 3, 7, 14, and 28 days for drying shrinkage test. Meanwhile, all concrete were test at 3, 7 and 28 days for compressive strength test. Compressive strength of concrete containing 5% baby polymer diapers show the highest strength at 28 days compared to others percentage. Thus, it indicates that application of baby polymer diaper as self-cure agent can improve the concrete performances.

The mechanical properties of high strength concrete(HSC) were experimentally investigated under mixed erosion and freeze-thaw cycling according to ASTM C666(Procedure B), the erosion solution was mixed by weight of 3% sodium chloride and 5% sodium sulfate. The mass loss, relative dynamic modulus of elasticity, compressive strength, elastic modulus and other relative data were measured. The results showed that with the increasing number of freeze-thaw cycles, the surface scaled more seriously; the mass loss, compressive strength and elastic modulus continued to decrease; the relative dynamic modulus of elasticity increased slightly in the first 225 freeze-thaw cycles, then decreased in the following 75 cycles; the corresponding strain to peak stress decreased with the increase of freeze-thaw cycles. After 200 cycles, the rate of deterioration of concrete accelerated obviously.

Concrete is the main material used in the construction industry and its main property is the axial compressive strength. Usually the prediction of compressive strength is restricted to limited empirical equations and / or laboratory dosages. The objective of this study is to develop fuzzy systems capable of obtaining the axial compressive strength of concrete, from the mixtures and curing time. Several fuzzy systems were developed with Mamdani inference and different defuzzification methods. Triangular membership functions were adopted for the input variables in all systems and triangular functions for the output variables. The developed models were simulated and evaluated using three statistical indexes. The systems with Mamdani inference and centroid, bisector and mom defuzzification proved to be reliable and highly effective. The best performance was obtained by the fuzzy centroid defuzzification system according to the analyses.,

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

With the rapid development of construction, the high quality of the construction material is required. Mixing carbon fiber in concrete attracts more and more attention as it can reinforce concrete. However, the science research and engineering application of carbon fiber reinforced concrete is relatively few. In this paper, the effects of different mixing amount of carbon fiber and the sand ratio in concrete and the curing time of concrete and relationships between these factors were investigated. Proper carbon fiber and sand ratio can promote the compressive strength of concrete and it has a good resistance to cracking. The compressive strength of concrete with different mixing amounts of carbon fiber peaks when the sand ratio was 31% and the compressive strength was better when the carbon fiber mixing amount was 0.2% and 1% than any other ratios after 28 days. When the sand ratio was 31%, the compressive strength of carbon fiber mixing amount increased with the increase of curing time and it reached the top when the carbon fiber ratio was 0.8%. The mixing amount of carbon fiber also had a great influence on the early compressive strength to some extent. We anticipate that the research can offer certain reference for engineering practice.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

The number of high-rise reinforced concrete (RC) buildings is steadily increasing since 1980’s. The use of high strength concrete is indispensible for high-rise RC construction to ensure sufficient strength of the structure. The effect of high strength concrete can be significantly improved by the use of high strength and large size reinforcing bars. The yield strength of transverse reinforcement is limited in the current design codes to prevent possible sudden concrete failure due to over reinforcement. This paper presents the effects of the yield strength of transverse reinforcement and compressive strength of concrete on the structural behavior of reinforced concrete cylinders. Two parameters were considered in this investigation: compressive strength of concrete and the yield strength of transverse reinforcement (472MPa, 880MPa, and 1,430 MPa). Analytical and experimental results indicated that the structural behavior of RC cylinders confined with high strength transverse reinforcement is strongly influenced by compressive strength of concrete.
