... are considered to attain the appropriate mix. The method of curing adopted is ambient and oven curing. Workability, compressive strength and microstructure characteristics of GPC are analysed and presented. Findings An increase of NaOH in the mix decreases the workability. Compressive strength of 29 MPa...

... was performed to determine the particle size distribution. Also, the degree of workability of the cement–laterite mix was ascertained using slump test. Compressive strengths were determined at cement stabilization percentages of 3%, 7% and 10% on 12 cubes of100 mm cast and cured for 14 and 28 days, respectively...

... in this paper. From this literature review, it has been noticed that there are improvements in concrete strength properties with WFS. Design/methodology/approach The results of various properties of concrete have been discussed in this review articles such as compressive strength, split tensile strength...

... how the carbon dioxide changed the microscopic composition and chemical composition of the concrete. A microcontroller with carbon dioxide sensors was used to gather carbon dioxide emission data for a period of three months. Findings The compressive strength tests show by introducing carbon...

... of various wastes along with saving the environment. This study aims to investigate the effect of construction waste, WFS along with additives on the stress-strain behavior and development of compressive strength with age. Design/methodology/approach The various concrete specimen were prepared in mix...

...Uchechi G. Eziefula; Hyginus E. Opara; Bennett I. Eziefula Purpose This paper aims to investigate the 28-day compressive strength of concrete produced with aggregates from different sources. Design/methodology/approach Coarse aggregates were crushed granite and natural local stones mined from...

...Richard Ohene Asiedu Purpose The quest to reduce the cost of concrete which is a major construction input has prompted investigations into assessing the suitability of alternative sources of conventional materials. This paper aims to report the compressive strength and workability of lateritic...
