New Considerations in Predicting Mitigation of Alkali-Silica Reaction Based on Fly Ash Chemistry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of high CaO and/or high-alkali (
Simple Procedure for Determining Long-Term Chemical Shrinkage for Cementitious Systems Using Improved Standard Chemical Shrinkage Test
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the past 10 years, renewed research interest has shown the benefits of internal curing by incorporating prewetted lightweight fine aggregate (LWFA) in high-performance concrete (HPC). To determine the optimum LWFA ...
Validated Uniaxial Stress–Strain Model for Cyclic Analysis of High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composites
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The high cost of manufacturing high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) and low confidence in predicting their mechanical properties have limited their widespread use as construction materials. ...
Using Supplementary Cementitious Materials to Mitigate Alkali-Silica Reaction in Concrete with Recycled-Concrete Aggregate
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is a key tool for improving sustainability in the construction and demolition industries. The use of RCA in new concrete is, in part, obstructed by the dearth of research available on the ...
Tension and Cyclic Behavior of High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composites
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this research the constitutive behavior of high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) was evaluated experimentally under uniaxial monotonic tension and cyclic loading. The experimental program ...
