Characterization of a Pultruded FRP Sheet Pile for Waterfront Retaining Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a series of experiments carried out to determine the characteristics of a pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheet pile profile for waterfront retaining wall applications. The profile’s flexural ...
Carbonation Curing of Concretes in a Flexible Enclosure under Ambient Pressure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Early-age carbonation curing of concrete is considered an alternative curing method that efficiently utilizes carbon dioxide to improve the performance of concrete and reduce carbon emission. Carbonation curing is commonly ...
Assessing the Carbonation Behavior of Cementitious Materials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The carbonation behavior of six cementitious materials was examined (CSA Type 10 cement, CSA Type 30 cement, fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace (GGBF) slag, electric arc furnace (EAF) slag, and hydrated lime) for ...
Carbonation Curing of Slag-Cement Concrete for Binding CO2 and Improving Performance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Early age carbonation curing of slag-cement concrete was investigated to assess the feasibility of binding
Flexural and Shear Rigidity of Composite Sheet Piles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The flexural and shear rigidity of pultruded composite sheet pile panels consisting of E-glass fiber-reinforced polyester are studied in this paper. The analysis consists of an experimental investigation and an analytical ...
Moment Capacities and Deflection Limits of PFRP Sheet Piles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The structural response of pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer (PFRP) sheet pile panels subjected to a uniform pressure load was investigated. Single, connected, and concrete-backfilled panels were tested to ultimate failure ...
Durability of Fiberglass Composite Sheet Piles in Water
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The durability of fiberglass composite sheet piles in water was studied through the specimens cut from flanges and webs of pultruded sheet pile sections. The experiments were performed to evaluate the water absorption at ...
Deflection Creep of Pultruded Composite Sheet Piling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The time-dependent creep behavior of pultruded composite sheet piling was investigated. Two panels were tested under equally spaced third point bending at a span to depth ratio of 48; one was subject to a constant load of 50% of
Effect of Carbonation Curing on Efflorescence Formation in Concrete Paver Blocks
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Efflorescence is a staining salt deposit that usually forms on or near the surface of portland concrete products. It is not an indication of internal damage, but rather an aesthetic blemish that affects a product’s appearance, ...
Effect of Carbonation Mixing on CO2 Uptake and Strength Gain in Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Concrete is well known for its capacity to sequester carbon dioxide (CO2) through carbonation curing. If carbonation mixing can be used to introduce CO2 during concrete mixing, the process is able to enhance the carbon ...
