Abstract: This study examined the effects of the unit weight of concrete (ωc) on the flexural performance of shear walls with different amounts (Ash) of transverse reinforcement in the boundary elements. Six shear wall specimens ...

Abstract: The objective of this study is to propose reliable models to assess the unrestrained and restrained shrinkage strains of lightweight concrete prepared using bottom ash aggregates and air foam (LWC-BF), on the basis of the ...

Abstract: The water content and lightweight aggregate proportions in lightweight alkali-activated (AA) concrete need to be carefully managed to control the quick slump loss of fresh concrete and to meet the mechanical properties ...
