Civil engineers who specialize in concrete and composites present 50 papers on such topics as using heat pretreatment to reduce the explosive spalling of high performance concrete, mechanical properties and resistance to water ingress of
cement concrete made with non-cyclic alkanes, a comparative investigation of some properties related to the durability of
cement concretes containing different fly ashes, mechanical and thermal properties of moderate-strength concrete with ceramic powder used as supplementary cementitious material, and mechanical and thermal properties of composites containing waste coir pith.
Briefly speaking, the rubberized concrete is a structure of conventional
cement concrete comprising crumb rubber.
Permissible uses for RCA in Michigan include as aggregate within Portland
cement concrete poured for curbs and gutters, sidewalks, barriers, driveways, temporary pavement, interchange ramps and shoulders.
Over that time period, portland
cement concrete has become one of the most important of our construction materials for roads, buildings, and other large
Transportation Department's Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has developed a method to determine the precise rate at which portland
cement concrete (PCC) contracts and expands during temperature changes.
But despite their beneficial effect over Portland
cement concrete, cement combination concretes have been underutilized in construction.
Using Lithium to Mitigate ASR in RCA Concrete: This research is an extension of work completed earlier during RMRC Project 1: "Mitigating Alkali Silicate Reaction in Recycled Concrete." A tremendous quantity of infrastructure Portland
Cement Concrete (PCC) is nearing the end of its useful life in the United States, and much of this concrete has the potential to be used as recycled concrete aggregate (RCA).
