Automated Mineral Identification of Pozzolanic Materials Using XRD Patterns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Use of pozzolanic materials in concrete has become increasingly popular due to their ability to improve long-term strength and durability. To better understand their reactivity and reaction mechanism, proper characterization ...
Surfactant-Assisted Purification of an Impure Kaolinite Clay to Improve Its Pozzolanic Reactivity in Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are beneficial for improving concrete’s long-term performance, durability, and environmental impact. Impure clay sources are abundant and when calcined, may serve as suitable ...
Automated Damage Localization and Quantification in Concrete Bridges Using Point Cloud-Based Surface-Fitting Strategy
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Digital image processing is considered an alternative to manual visual inspection, enabling automated damage evaluation for structural maintenance. Although advancements in artificial intelligence have improved identification ...
Strategies for Developing High-Volume Fly Ash Concrete with High Early-Age Strength for Precast Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Partial replacement of portland cement with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), such as fly ash, is an effective strategy for improving durability and reducing the CO2 footprint of concrete. However, using high-volume ...
