        مقدمه و هدف: بیشتر صنایع کاغذ و مقواسازی برای دفع پسماندهای تولیدی خود، صرف نظر از هزینه های گزاف، از دو روش متداول سوزاندن و دفن در خاکچال استفاده می کنند. ترکیبات خطرناک موجود در این نوع پسماندها، سبب آلودگی های محیط زیست و به خطر افتادن سلامت بشر می شود. بسیاری از مطالعات سال های اخیر نشان می دهد که بعضی از ضایعات حاصل از صنایع کاغذ و مقوا می تواند به عنوان مواد اولیه در صنعت ساختمان به کار رود. این تحقیق با هدف تعیین درصد بهینه اختلاط پسماند مقواسازی در تهیه بتن سبک غیر باربر انجام شد. روش بررسی: در این تحقیق از دو نوع پسماند کارخانه مقواسازی (پسماند نوع1 حاوی مقوا و ماسه و پسماند نوع2 حاوی نایلون، یونولیت و مقوا) که بیشترین حجم پسماندها را تشکیل می دهند استفاده شد. مشخصات فیزیکی و میکروبی پسماندها مطابق ASTM اندازه گیری شد. همچنین ترکیب های مختلف شیمیایی پسماندها شامل عناصر مختلف با استفـاده از میکــروسکـوپ الکترونی اندازه گیری شد. پس از آماده سازی نمونه ها، آزمایش های مورد نظر برای تعیین درصد بهینه اختلاط پسماند در بتن در سنین 7، 14 و 28 روز انجام شد. یافته ها: از آنجاییکه pH نمونه بتن های تازه حاوی پسماند بزرگتر از 12 می باشد، می توان مطمئن شد که هیچ گونه مشکل میکروبی وجود نخواهد داشت. به طورکلی استفاده از پسماند در تولید بتن سبب کاهش مقاومت فشاری نمونه ها می شود. مقایسه مقاومت فشاری بتن های حاوی پسماند نوع1 و نمونه بتن های حاوی هر دو نوع پسماند، نشان می دهد با کاهش میزان پسماند نوع 2 نسبت به پسماند نوع1 مقاومت فشاری بتن بهبود می یابد. نتایج حاصل از آزمایش چگالی خشک، نشان دهنده کاهش چگالی نمونه های بتنی حاوی پسماند با افزایش درصد جایگزینی پسماند در بخش ماسه می باشد. همچنین استفاده از پسماند نوع2 باعث سبک تر شدن نمونه های بتنی نسبت به نوع1 می شود. مقادیر بهینه درصدهای جایگزینی پسماند بجای بخش ماسه بتن برای نمونه های حاوی پسماند نوع 1 و نوع 2، به ترتیب 70 و 75 و همچنین برای نمونه های حاوی هر دو نوع پسماند، 49 درصد پسماند نوع 1 و 21 درصد پسماند نوع 2 می باشد. بحث و نتیجه گیری: با توجه به نتایج به دست آمده، استفاده از پسماند نوع1 در تولید بتن به لحاظ اقتصادی و زیست محیطی به سبب استفاده از سیمان کمتر رضایت بخش تر می باشد. استفاده از پسماندهای کارخانه های مقواسازی در تولید بتن سبب صرفه های زیست محیطی و اقتصادی (سودآوری و تولید اشتغال، کاهش هزینه های انتقال پسماندها به محل دفن، کاهش وزن سازه، استفاده از پسماند به جای خرید ماسه و کاهش آلودگی های زیست محیطی ناشی از سوزاندن و دفن پسماندهـا در خاکچال) می شود. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this work, silica nanoparticles were added to the mortar with one percent by weight of cement. To investigate the effect of these nanoparticles on the strength of cement, 7-day and 28-day strength according to ASTMC109 standard was obtained and compared with the results of the control sample. the results showed that these nanoparticles increase the compressive and bending strengths. To investigate this nanoparticles effect on the corrosion resistance of the rebar inside the cement, polarization and EIS tests were performed in 3.5% salt solution.The results of the polarization test showed that the sample with silicon dioxide nanoparticles has more corrosion potential and less corrosion current, which indicates less corrosion rate and less corrosion tendency of this sample compared to the control sample. EIS analysis showed that samples with the presence of silicon dioxide nanoparticles have higher electrical impedance than the other. By simulating the equivalent circuit, the reason for the higher electrical impedance of the mortar in the presence of Sio2 nanoparticles was investigated.The results showed that the reason for the increase in corrosion resistance and electrical impedance is the increase in electrical resistance, increase in ion diffusion and the decrease in capacitance of mortar. تفاصيل المقالة

        Geopolymers can be mentioned as a new class of green cement adhesives. Geopolymers have recently been introduced as a greener alternative to conventional Portland cement (OPC) with the potential to minimize the negative environmental consequences of OPC such as carbon footprint and energy consumption. In this experimental study, the effects of different alkaline activating solutions on compressive, tensile, and indirect flexural strength, water absorption, and acid resistance of bentonite-based geopolymer concrete (GPC) were investigated. Also in this study, a new type of alkaline activator was used. In this study, GPC samples made from bentonite were produced and baked at 90 ° C. The results showed that the addition of NaOH to the mixture after 3 minutes of mixing KOH and Na2SiO3 with dry components (1/3 of the total mixing time) increases the compressive, tensile, and flexural strength and we also see that with this new method, water absorption capacity and the amount of weight loss of geopolymer concrete samples are reduced in acidic conditions. تفاصيل المقالة

        This study investigated the compressive strength of hardened concrete and the formation of Calcium Silicate Hydrate (C-S-H) with the addition of nanosilica (SiO2). Compressive strength testing was performed using ASTM C496 to determine stress-strain curves and compressive strength of the materials. The hydration process and formation of C-S-H and Calcium Hydroxide (CH) was examined using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Results indicate an increase in compressive strength using 1, 3 and 5% of nanosilica to concrete replacement by volume in comparison to the control mix (without nanosilica). The optimum concrete replacement to yield maximum strength was of the 5% nanosilica content. Comparing the 56 day results for the 3 and 5% of nanosilica replacement samples, notice the same percentage of C-S-H formation of 83 and 85%, respectively تفاصيل المقالة

        So far, many studies have been done on the performance of conventional chemical stabilizers such as cement, lime, fly ash or other chemical additives. However, very limited researches were conducted on the mechanical behavior of cement-stabilized soil with fiber inclusion. Fiber-reinforcement of a stabilized soil offers new opportunities to improve ductility and strength characteristics of weak soils. The main objective of this research is considering the effects of curing time, initial moisture content, polypropylene fiber (PPF) or basalt fiber (BF) with or without addition of cement on the Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) of the clay soil. Different ratios of PPF or BF and/or cement were added to the soil to identify their influences on the UCS. The study finds that adding cement, PPF or BF to soil causes a remarkable increase in the strength. The strength of the PPF-reinforced specimens was observed significantly more than that of BF-reinforced ones. The strength of specimens increases gradually as the initial moisture content decreases and the cement content or curing time increases. However, the axial strain at failure for cement-stabilized specimens decreased with increasing cement content or curing time. Furthermore, it is concluded that the increase in UCS of combined PPF or BF and cement inclusions is more than the increase caused by each of them, individually. تفاصيل المقالة

        In order to control seepage from the dam, various methods are used to reduce water seepage. One of the methods of reducing the permeability of the water according to its material is building cut-off walls and filling them with plastic concrete materials. In this study, it has been tried to study the mixing plan of the plastic concrete in the main body of the Nargesi dam’s cutoff wall and to determine the results of compressive strength and elasticity modulus of 108 panels of cut-off wall in different ages in this project. Due to the individual concreting of each panel from the cutoff wall, the results of the plastic concrete panels at runtime are somewhat different. Due to the sensitivity of the plastic concrete to the dispersion of the results, considering that the cutoff wall should have a seamless function as well as the sensitivity of the concrete over time, it seems necessary to address this issue in an operational project. The results indicate that the growth rate of elastic modulus in a period of time is less than the growth rate of the compressive strength, and in other words, the plasticity of the concrete is changed less over time. تفاصيل المقالة

        Existing reinforced concrete (RC) columns may be structurally deficient due to variety of reasons such as improper transverse reinforcement, flaws in structural design, insufficient load carrying capacity, etc. Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) is a new generation of materials which illustrates in order to enhance concrete compressive strength and ductility. Among the FRP types, Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is more common. CFRP can be effectively used for strengthening and confinement the deficient RC columns. This research conducts to evaluate the behavior of this fiber in improvement of aforementioned quantities. In this investigation, three categories of compressive strength of concrete were selected. The samples were warped with 0, 1, 3, and 5 layers of CFRP were subjected under stress-strain tests. The results display that carbon fiber is more effective in enhancing the compressive strength and ductility. Fiber performance is more effective on low-strength concretes, and its effective role decreases with increasing the number of layers. تفاصيل المقالة

        Nowadays, due to the increasing population and the expansion of urbanization, and consequently the need for high-rise and multi-storey buildings that , the safety and resistance of the load bearing members of the structures has become of interest to researchers. For this purpose, different approaches have been proposed, including nanomaterials as a suitable and optimal method. Using nanomaterials as a percentage of cement weight improves concrete performance and increases its strength. Since these materials should be used at the beginning of concrete construction, therefore, they cannot be used in constructed structures. But a protective coating containing these nanomaterials can enhance and improve the performance of the structures, which is applicable to the fabricated structures. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of protective coatings with Nano silica, carbon nanotube and graphene nanomaterials. For this purpose, four thicknesses different and 2% nanomaterials different, the effect of thickness and percentage of nanomaterials were investigated. The results show that the sample containing 15% of silica with 26.74 N/mm2 has the highest effect compared to other nanomaterials. However, due to the low percentages of carbon nanotube and graphene, these materials have a significant effect. تفاصيل المقالة

        Self-compacting concrete is a new high performance concrete with high ductility and segregation resistance. In recent years, construction material manufacturers have focused their attention on lightweight concrete and have strived to use lightweight concrete, if possible, in load-bearing parts of buildings. Concrete with both self-compacting and lightweight properties is favourable in this context which is the so-called lightweight self-consolidating concrete. Given the novelty of self-compacting concrete industry and increased amount of construction materials resulting from earthquake (due to seismic hazards of Iran) and destruction of different buildings, in particular urban decay, on the other hand, feasibility study on production of self-compacting concrete with these materials is justifiable in terms of costs, environment protection and energy conservation. Accordingly, coordination between self-compacting factor and utilising these materials is important. So, in this research, the effect of recycled aggregates on mechanical properties of lightweight self-compacting concrete was investigated. Specimens were analysed using 2 mix designs with different contents (cement) by Slump, J-Ring and compressive strength tests. Results indicated that mix designs containing waste LECA have good consistency and stability. Also, mix designs containing waste scoria have high strength. Hence, in order to achieve self-compacting and lightweight properties, it seems logical to use those two waste materials. تفاصيل المقالة

        Determination the optimal mix design plays an important role in order to gain the maximum characteristic strength. This research was conducted as a case study for Manjil tunnel project located in Qazvin-Rasht highway. For this purpose, 18 concrete mix designs were prepared at the study phase of the project with specifications such as conventional water-to-cement ratios of 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6, the use of two generations of new and old conventional superplasticizer in Iran (naphthalene sulphonate and polycarboxylate ether types, respectively) with cement weight percentages of 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6. Superplasticizers are used to increase the fluidity of concrete without adding excess water. The naphthalene sulphonate is a polymeric molecule formed by condensation of naphthalene sulfonic acid and formaldehyde, in which the hydrophilic groups are mainly sulfonic groups. It has been demonstrated that polycarboxylate ether can mitigate plastic shrinkage of matrix because of the reduction of the build-up rate of capillary pressure by polycarboxylate ether. Finally, the optimal water-to-cement ratio and superplasticizer weight percentage were determined. Concrete mix designs with different ages of curing were made (0, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days). تفاصيل المقالة

        One of the serious damages of tremendous earthquakes is the damage to bridges as the major components in an arterial road network, as relief operation is interrupted following cutting roads. Regardless of the magnitude and severity of an earthquake, other factors are also important in the strength and seismic performance of concrete bridges. Freezing-thawing cycles are among the factors, which erode the piers of concrete bridges over time. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the seismic vulnerability of bridges for future designs.This research aims at discussing the effect of freeze-thaw cycles on the seismic performance of concrete bridges using fragilitycurves. Fragility curves express the conditional probability to reach or exceed a level of damage as a function of ground motion parameters. The curves have been developed analytically using a probabilistic method. Ground motion parameter, peak ground acceleration, structural criterion, and relative displacement of piles were considered. The non-linear time history analysis in OpenSees was used for demand determination. The curves were drawn for the slight, moderate, and extensive damage levels in two modes of before and after damage caused by thawing and freezing, i.e. the mode in which the compressive strength of column section expose reduced. With respect to the fragility curves, the strength reduction increases bridge vulnerability, especially on slight damage levels. Comparing with the cyclic curves of the most vulnerable column in two modes of before and after the damage showed that energy absorption capacity lowered with the expose compressive strength reducing. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this research, the effect of the cement, sand, and pumice mixture on the durability of lightweight concrete is investigated. The intention of this paper is to replace a certain amount of the pumice percentage as an alternative option of the cement and pumice sand aggregate with conventional sand components. The experimental results include compressive strength, ion-chloride emission factor (RCPT and RCMT). The experiments are carried out at the concrete age of 28 and 90 days. The results indicate that pumice composition improves the durability of lightweight concrete. Furthermore, it was observed that the proposed mixing design have proper permeability resistance against the chloride ion attack. For 90 days aged concrete, it was notified that the samples had a chlorine ion penetration coefficient of 10% which is less than the concrete specimens of 28 days. Finally, the compressive strength of the new mixing design samples can beincreased by 1.5 to 2.5 Mpa after 90 days. تفاصيل المقالة

        Nowadays, waste production is increased due to the growth of technology and excessive use of natural resources as well as production of new chemicals, among which the hazardous wastes are no exception of that stabilization and solidification method is one of the hazardous waste management methods through which the waste materials are stabilized and confined. High flexibility for various pollutant compounds, ease of use, and being economical for large volumes of waste has led researchers to use this method to treat various wastes. In this research, sludge ash from sewage treatment plantsuses as waste in order to perform the stabilization and solidification process. Nine mix designs with a water to cement ratio of 0.46; and 0, 6, and 10 percent dried sludge residue of the Alborz Industrial City in Qazvin as the replacement of fine aggregate; 0, 2, and 4 percent of silica fume; and cement content of 600 kg/m3are produced. The mini slump flow, mini V-funnel, compressive strength, electrical resistancetests were carried out on the solidified samples to investigate the effect of waste on the performance of the mortar.The results show that the use of this waste as a substitute for fine aggregate could be taken into consideration. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this paper, 5056 aluminum alloy foams with different percentages of calcium carbonate as foaming agents have been produced, and the physical and mechanical properties of the foams have been studied. Quasi-static compression tests have been carried out to determine the mechanical properties of foamed material. The effects of the amount of calcium carbonate on the size of the pores, the minimum thickness of the walls, density, compressive strength and energy absorption capacity of foams have been investigated. The uniform structure of the pores has been observed in foam specimens with 1.5, 1.8 and 2.1 wt% CaCO3. Increasing the amount of CaCO3 foaming agent from 1.5% to 2.1% has increased the average size of the pores by more than 180% and reduced the thickness of cell walls by 90%. So, the density and the relative density of the aluminum foams have been reduced by 28.6%. The results also show that increasing the amount of CaCO3 foaming agent decreases compressive strength, the absorbed energy and the elastic modulus of 5056 aluminum foams. By increasing the amount of foaming agent from 1.5% to 2.1%, the elastic modulus has reduced by about 16%, and a decrease of 21% has been seen in the energy absorbed by the foam at the strain of 0.4. تفاصيل المقالة

        Inorganic polymers were synthesized from dehydroxylated aluminosilicate clay (metakaolinite) condensed with sodium silicate in a highly alkaline environment. The thermal treatment of aluminosilicate materials causes changes in their structure with an increase in the amorphous phase. For that kind of structural change XRD analysis is not appropriate, so those changes are currently assessed by infrared emission spectra analysis (FTIR). The most characteristic FTIR band in the geopolymeric systems appears in the wavenumbers region 990-1090cm-1 and is attributed to the asymmetric stretching vibration of T-O-Si, where T denotes Si or Al. The shift of this peak towards lower wavenumbers indicates the dissolution of the amorphous aluminosilicate phase of the raw material and the formation of a new amorphous gel in which the backbone consists of polymeric chains with smaller length in relation to the ones of the raw material. The SEM result showed that geopolymer paste was formed from quartz remaining particles and gel. The remaining particle size was reduced by increase of the curing temperature and Na2O/SiO2 molar ratio. The results indicated that samples with adequate strength are created compact and crack-free areas. تفاصيل المقالة

        Using mineral admixtures in cement composites as a way to improve their mechanical and durability properties is a common practice in concrete technology. Among them silica fume and nano-silica effectively influence the composite's early and long-term properties. Due to the limited particle size distribution of nano and micro silica it is expected that the incorporation of some mineral additives with a size of greater than 500 nm may result in better mechanical and durability performance because of the filler effect. In this study, the effect of different percentages of TiO2 on mechanical properties of cement composites containing nano-silica and silica fume was investigated. Six designs were tested for compressive strength with respect to zero, 2.5 and 5 percent replacement of cement with TiO2. The addition of TiO2 has led to an increase in compressive strength. The best results from the sample with 2.5% TiO2 are obtained. This could be due to the effect of TiO2 particles filling. Comparison of SF3, SF2 and SF1 at 28 days of age showed that SF2 increased the compressive strength. This shows that TiO2 has a great potential for improving the mechanical properties of composite cement.The results showed that the addition of TiO2 had a positive effect on compressive strength. تفاصيل المقالة

Increasing TiO2 nanoparticles content of more than 3 wt% is caused to reduce the compressive strength according to past studies. But in this study is shown that by adding 3% nanocillis or 20% silicified to increased TiO2 nanoparticles content of more than 3% wt, the results ofcompressive strength are not reduced. The use of 3% combined nano-silica or 20% silicafium will cover this defect of increased TiO2 nanoparticles content ofmore than 3% wt. تفاصيل المقالة

        A number of common laboratory rock mechanics tests are carried out in all geotechnical projects such as dams, to determine parameters such as porosity, density, water absorption, sonic velocity, Brazilian tensile strength, uniaxial compressive strength, and triaxial compressive strength. In this paper, data obtained from two dams in Asmari Formation including Khersan 1 and Karun 4 - both located in Chahar-Mahal Va Bakhtiari Province, Iran - have been subjected to a series of statistical analyses. Then, using Multivariate Linear Regression (MLR) and Artificial Neural Networks values of UCS, E, C, and φ were predicted using the input parameters including depth, compression ultrasonic velocity, porosity, density, and Brazilian tensile strength. The designed ANN in this research was a feedforward backpropagation network which is powerful tool to solve prediction problems. Designed network had two hidden layer (hidden layer 1: 18 neurons and hidden layer 2: 20 neurons). Via comparing designed MLR and ANN models, it was revealed that ANNs (R2 UCS= 0.91, R2 = 0.87, R2 =0.78, R2 EC phi = 0.61) are more efficient than MLR models (R2 UCS= 0.69, R = 0.69, R = 0.66, and R2 22 EC phi = 0.50) in predicting strength and shear parameters of the intact rock. Also, to enhance the credibility of this study, some extra tests were carried out to evaluate the efficiency of network designed for prediction of strength parameters. The results obtained from this network were as: R2 UCS= 0.85, R2E = 0.81. تفاصيل المقالة

For this purpose, different nanosilica dosages including 0%, 2%, 4% and 6% with considering the cement/water ratio are used to preparing the totally 10 mixing scheme and 30 concrete laboratory samples (10×10×10 cm cubic specimens) which is tested under 7, 28 and 90 days age. According to the experimental results by increasing the amount of nanosilica in the samples, UCS is increased and mechanical properties of concrete improved under loading. But in 6% nanosilica specimens incremental slope is get smooth then 4% nanosilica specimens. This was also observed for the 28-day and 90-day samples. In the meantime, some samples containing 6% nanosilica under uniaxial pressure experienced a resistance drop in strength features, indicating a decreasing trend of durability improvement at values above 6% nanosilica. تفاصيل المقالة

        The uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is one of the most important parameters that is needed and determined for studying rock mechanics of intact rock in most rock engineering projects. In spite of simple appearance of this test, the careful performance is very difficult. Therefore, scientists have made many attempts for indirect estimation of this parameter using simple tests (such as point load index (Is)) and they generated some relations between these parameters. This paper presents the new relationship between UCS and Is by using laboratory tests on Travertine samples of Mahallat. To determine the relations between parameters, the mathematical modeling has been used. Statistical analyses show that the nonlinear equation has a higher correlation coefficient than the linear; also, by estimating another effective parameter, porosity, and by adding it to the last equation, the correlation coefficient between actual and predicted data was improved in multiple non-linear equations. The comparison between actual and predicted results has proved acceptably accurate. تفاصيل المقالة

        The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of desert sand as a replacement on the tensile and compressive strength of concrete. To this end, a total of 180 cubic specimens (15×15×15 cm) and 90cylindricalspecimens (15×30 cm) were made with three concrete classes of C20, C25, and C30. Control samples (samples without desert sand) and samples containing 5%, 10%, 15%, and 25% sand were also produced. They were processed in mineral-free water at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. They were then subjected to pressure and tension tests by a 200-ton digital concrete breaker jack. For the water absorption test, 15 cylindrical samples (7.5×15 cm) were made for C25 and 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% desert sand. They were then tested after 28 days. The results showed that the compressive strength at the age of 28 days gradually increased by adding the sand. It reached the highest for C20 containing 10% sand. However, it reached the highest foe C25 and C30 containing 5% sand. Adding sand over 20% leads to decreasing compressive strength. The tensile strength of C25 and C30 concrete containing 5% sand and C20 concrete containing 10% sand was the highest compared to the control sample. Adding sand up to 10% leads to decreased water absorption, and then it increases after adding sand. تفاصيل المقالة

        Improving the engineering properties of soils by chemical stabilization and using reinforcement material are means of complying with geotechnical design criteria. Nowadays, the use of chemical materials such as Portland cement and lime has been criticized despite the acceptable effect due to environmental pollution caused by their production as well as the contamination caused by these materials in the soil. One of the materials used to replace cement and lime is cement kiln dust (CKD), which has been used as filler in asphalt concrete, sewage sludge stabilization, and improving the physical and mechanical properties of soils in recent years. An experimental study was performed to evaluate strength behavior and microstructural characteristics of CKD-soil admixture reinforced by polypropylene fibers. The effect of content and length of fibers on mixture properties was investigated. The results indicated that CKD increases the strength of the soil, but its behavior is fragile. The use of fiber in combination with CKD, in addition to increasing the strength, makes the sample more ductile. The test results showed that the optimum content of polypropylene fibers is 0.5%. The failure pattern of fiber-reinforced specimens differed from that of fiberless specimens due to the bridge effect. The results of the UCS test agreed well with the results from the SEM analysis. تفاصيل المقالة

        Based on the increasing the usage of the resources and population growth, the soil with suitable properties for civil engineering project such as pavement construction is not available. Therefore, it is obligatory that the enhancement of local soils properties should be appropriately deliberated. If for some reason it is not possible to relocate the project and replace the soil, or if the cost of soil replacement is not cost-effective, the soil remediation method should be considered so that if this method is economically and technically justifiable, it should be done. From this perspective, the effects of Nano-silica on soil compressive strength are important and necessary. In this study, a specific and different number of samples are prepared for comparison. The purpose of this study is to measure the uniaxial compressive strength of granular soils. It was concluded that Nano-silica filled pore space between Sand particles and a dense matrix were formed. This textural event caused an improvement in compressive strength of stabilized soils In this regard, the use of Nano-silica as a suitable and efficient additive in the thickening processes is recommended. تفاصيل المقالة

        Water content is a very important part of concrete which has an important impact on strength of the concrete. The water condition in concrete is mostly located in drinking level which by shortcoming on the waters is required to reconsider the usage water in concrete. The presented study attempted to provide the experimental study on wastewater application for cement mixing in high-strength concrete. In this regard, the experimental assessment was conducted on 2 types of concrete mix named Mix 1 and Mix 2 (for 7 and 28 days) which is indicated of drinking water, and treated wastewater-based concrete. The main evaluation index is UCS which is performed on 10 samples. According to the results of the study, using treated wastewater provides the 12 to 18 MPa strength regarding UCS which is near to the freshwater (14 to 20 MPa). So, the application of treated wastewater can be considered as an alternative for fresh water in concrete. تفاصيل المقالة

        The increasing production of construction waste on the one hand and the use of concrete as a widely used material in the construction industry, on the other hand, has always led researchers to reuse construction waste in concrete. Among the recycled materials that can be used in concrete, we can mention porcelain ceramic and recycled concrete. In the present study, these two types of recycled aggregates (recycled porcelain ceramics and recycled concrete) alone and together in different percentages of 20%, 40%, and 60% are used as the replacement of coarse aggregates in concrete with a strength of more than 50 MPa and high flowability. Slump test, compressive and flexural strength, water absorption, and water penetration tests have been performed on 150 samples made in 10 mixing designs along with an SEM test. The results showed that all the mixing designs had slumps of more than 180 mm. The compressive strength of the control sample averaged 60 MPa and the samples containing recycled aggregates averaged 68 MPa. Also, by combining two types of recycled aggregates, both the 7-day and 28-day strength increased with increasing replacement percentage with a linear trend. The highest increase was 28% for porcelain aggregates and 17% for combined recycled aggregates. In addition, the water penetration rate in the samples containing the combined recycled aggregates showed a significant decrease compared to the control sample. In the SEM test, it was observed that the samples containing the combined aggregates had a thicker and denser matrix. تفاصيل المقالة

        Fiber reinforced concretes due to their acceptable performance on structural members have been evaluated in many research. Planty of materials have been used in combination with the concrete and caused researcher focused on the concrete compressive strength. In this experimental regard, effects of three types of fibers such as Glass, Carbon and double hook steel on tensile strength, compressive strength and slump of standard concrete samples have been investigated. Four various weight ratios for any of these fibers are used (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2% of cement weight). Analysis is done on the 7 and 28 days of concrete age and a simple concrete sample is existing to compare with fiber concrete samples. Results showed that in all dosage of Glass and Steel, compressive strength is increased but in samples with carbon fibers in 1.5 and 2% is decreased. Tensile strength in all used dosage of fibers is increased. Slump values of all fiber samples are decreased and maximum decrease experienced in glass fiber samples. تفاصيل المقالة

        38 - Estimating an appropriate plastic concrete mixing design for cutoff walls to control leakage under the earth dam.

        Making use of concrete materials in cut-off walls, because of their low permeability and standing high Hydraulic Gradient caused by underground drainage, has attracted great amount of attention. Using ordinary concrete with high elasticity modulus, compared to other materials may accompany with problems including brittleness of cutoffs due to dynamic stresses.To solve this problem, adding a certain percentage of clay (Bentonite) to plastic concrete materials reduces the concrete hardness as well as its elasticity coefficient, resulting in better ductility. Adding Ebonite (clay and excavation mud) decreases the possibility of hydraulic failure and cracking.In this article components of the plastic concrete and parameters which affect in properties and manners of its mixing design is analyzed. Based on the results that have been obtained from experiments on plastic concrete samples which have various mixing plans, diagrams have been presented to obtain a mixing plan of ideal plastic concrete with different characteristics which result in determining a key relationship in order to estimate mixing plan of an appropriate plastic concrete of cutoffs to control leakage under the dam. While under current situation, not using these relationships to estimate mixing plan of an appropriate plastic concrete of cutoffs in order to control leakage under the dam is costly and time consuming with considerable amount of errors. تفاصيل المقالة

        The recycling of mine stone waste has been interesting for the creation of employment opportunities and added value and the prevention of environmental pollution. The present study examined the effects of the physicomechanical properties on the abrasion resistance of artificial stones produced with granite cut waste. A total of four artificial specimens were produced under different compositions and methods. Their physicomechanical properties, such as density, porosity, water absorption, hardness, compressive strength, and abrasion resistance, were evaluated. Finally, the artificial stones were compared to natural granite and marble in abrasion resistance. It was found that an increase in the porosity and water absorption reduced hardness, compressive strength, and abrasion resistance. Furthermore, hardness, compressive strength, and abrasion resistance declined as the porosity and water absorption increased. The increased rotational speed and load in the Taber abrasion test diminished abrasion resistance. The epoxy resin-based artificial stone exhibited the highest performance among the artificial specimens. It had almost the same porosity and water absorption as natural granite and marble. However, the epoxy resin-based stone with lower Mohs hardness and compressive strength showed less abrasion resistance compared to the natural granite and marble. As a result, all four artificial stones showed satisfactory performance for the flooring of congested areas. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this work, to investigate the effect of reduced Graphene Oxide nanoparticles on the strength of concrete and the corrosion resistance of rebar inside it, Graphene Oxide nanoparticles were added to the mortar with different weight percentages of cement. The strength of concrete was evaluated by measuring the compressive strength of 7 days and 28 days and comparing with the results of the control sample. To investigate the effect of reduced Graphene Oxide nanoparticles on the corrosion resistance of rebar inside it, polarization and EIS tests were performed in a 3.5% salt solution. The results showed that the addition of reduced Graphene Oxide nanoparticles increases the compressive strength and electrical impedance of the concrete. It was also found that there is an optimal value that the addition of Graphene Oxide nanoparticles more than that value causes a relative decrease in concrete strength and electrical impedance. Finally, by simulating the equivalent circuit, the reason for the decrease in impedance and as a result the corrosion resistance by adding more than the optimal value was investigated. تفاصيل المقالة

        Concrete materials are exposed to special weather conditions, corrosion and significant damage. For this purpose, the effect of 28-day compressive strength changes on the samples studied in this study was investigated by considering the simultaneous effect of chloride ion penetration and carbonation phenomenon. For this reason, in the first case, the samples are exposed to carbon dioxide once and then to chloride ions. In the latter case, only samples under the influence of chloride infiltration are examined. To make the samples, which include 9 mixing designs, three water-to-cement ratios of 0.35, 0.4 and 0.5 and three percent of 0%, 7% and 10% silica fume have been used. Finally, an optimal model is introduced to predict the compressive strength of concrete containing micro silica exposed to carbonation using artificial neural network. Also, a relation for estimating compressive strength based on the ratio of water to cement and the amount of silica is presented. تفاصيل المقالة
