...Olubunmi Oluwadare Owoyemi, PhD; Lekan Olatayo Afolagboye, PhD The quality of the aggregates used inplastering mortar contributes to the properties of the mortar. This study evaluated the suitability of two grades of sand – sharp sand collected along active/old river courses and plastering sand...

..., an artificial neural network (ANN) can accurately predict the FRUHPSCC's mechanical properties. The study utilised garnet and basalt aggregates, nanosilica, steel fibre and other components to make FRUHPSCC and tested its compressive and tensile strengths and microstructure. By utilising a data set...

... of the results, for concretes containing aggregates exhibiting moderate reactivity, the maximum allowable cement alkali limit was increased from 1.00 to 1.15%. For all the levels of aggregate reactivity, cement alkali contents could be allowed up to 1.25% provided the recommended level of mitigation by SCMs...
