In this project laboratory experiment study is made to compare the mechanical properties of Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) blended cement concrete using 53 Grade Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and OPC 53 Special (OPC S) cement. To investigate the mechanical strength, laboratory tests ...
OPC of 53grade assure to BIS Specification IS 12269-1987 [12] with specific gravity of 3.15 is used. The physical properties of cement were given in Table 1. M-sand Aggregate used in the work is of the naturally available crushed blue granite stone which passes through sieve size 4.75 ...
The cement used in the SCC mixtures as ordinary Portland cement (OPC) of 53 grade manufactured by KCP Company conforming to IS 12269:1987 [12] was used. The specific gravity of the cement is 3.15. Fly ash obtained from Vijayawada thermal power plant (VTPP), Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, Ind...
This situation highlights the urgent need for new research to reduce the environmental impact of cement production. One promising approach to addressing these challenges is the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). SCMs have the potential to partially replace cement in concrete mixes, ...
04 November 2016 Thermoelectric properties of in-situ plasma spray synthesized sub-stoichiometry TiO2−x Hwasoo Lee, Su Jung Han, Ramachandran Chidambaram Seshadri & Sanjay Sampath The thermoelectric properties of sub-stoichiometric TiO2−x deposits produced by cascaded-plasma spray proces...
A review of the mechanical property development of concrete containing calcined clay was performed. A comparison of compressive and tensile strength results showed that concrete can be made to have equivalent or higher strength as an ordinary portland cement (OPC) system with up to 30% calcined cla...
This study explored the impact of elevated temperatures on the residual structural properties of concrete made with a non-conventional fine aggregate such as laterite and quarry dust. In regions prone to high temperatures, such as tropical climates, the
The current research addresses the development of highly improved and eco-friendly UHPSCFRC by incorporating various waste nanomaterials as partial substitutes for OPC. While previous studies have focused on enhancing UHPC properties, limited research has explored using different nano-sized waste materials ...
The binder constituent used in the production of RAPB was 53 grade Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) confirming to IS 12269: 2013 [53]. The fineness and specific gravity of cement was found out to be 3% and 3.15 respectively. Coarse aggregates The conventional aggregates with particle size rangi...
OPC 43 grade with a specific gravity of 3.15 and an initial setting time of 35 min as depicted in Figure 1(a) was used in this study. Figure 1 Basic ingredients of concrete (a) cement, (b) fine aggregates, (c) coarse aggregates. 2.1.2 Fine aggregate Fine aggregate having a ...
