...Yash Rathore; Juned Raheem; Neeraj Kumar; Abhijeet Shukla Purpose The study aims to evaluate the feasibility of Deccan basalt manufactured sand ( DBM ) as a sustainable fine aggregate substitute for natural river sand in concrete. It focuses on an integrated performance assessment covering...

... using compressed air to repair the facade of the Field Columbian Museum in Chicago. Spraying dry concrete mix through a nozzle with water added just before application is known as cement gun technology, and the process is gunite. A significant advance in development in 1950 marked the beginning...

...Vineet Kumar; Deepak Kumar Verma Purpose The global construction industry faces both challenges and opportunities from electronic waste (e-waste). This study aims to present a bibliometric analysis and comprehensive literature assessment on e-waste in concrete construction materials. Design...

...Chaitanya D.V.S.K.; Naga Satish Kumar Ch. Purpose This study aims on a broad review of Concrete's Rheological Properties. The Concrete is a commonly used engineering material because of its exquisite mechanical interpretation, but the addition of constituent amounts has significant effects...

...Fatimah De’nan; Megat Azmi Megat Johari; Shaneez Christie Anak Nyandau; Nor Salwani Hashim Purpose The purpose of this study is to know the influence of palm oil fuel ash and metakaolin on the strength of concrete and crack resistance of reinforced concrete beam. An ordinary portland cement has...

...Nadia Talbi; Aghiles Nekmouche; Mohand Ould Ouali; Naceur-Eddine Hannachi; Mohammed Naboussi Farsi Purpose This paper aims to model the performances of frames structures by comparing the predictions of ordinary control concrete (CC) and concretes reinforced by fibers. Two types of steel fibers...

...Mudasir Peerzada; Khan Adnan; Basrah Bilal; Riyaz Janees; Bazila Qazi; Naqash Ahmed Javed Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of nano alumina (Al₂O₃) on the properties of fresh concrete, hardened concrete and microstructure of concrete incorporated...

...Peerzada Mudasir; Javed Ahmed Naqash Purpose The aim of this research is to study the role and formation of hydration products particularly crystalline portlandite Ca(OH)2 in MWCNT-reinforced concrete at 28 days. Concrete is the largest manufactured building material in world in which cement, sand...

... to landfills. In addition, to evaluate its suitability as a sustainable material, mechanical and durability properties have been performed on different proportions of concrete blending and the results recorded were compared with the reference concrete values. Design/methodology/approach In this research...

...Mudasir Peerzada; Javed Ahmed Naqash Purpose In cold areas, frost damage is the main factor for diminution of durability and serviceability of structures. Due to incessant freeze thaw regimes, micro cracks spread and deteriorate concrete to point of failure. Design/methodology/approach...

...H. Karpate; H. Wheat; J. Jirsa; D. Fowler; D. Whitney Reinforced concrete structures have been wrapped to provide strength and confinement in the presence of seismic loads. The wrapping of structures as a means of mitigating corrosion is relatively recent. The objective of the work to be described...
