Ensuring the safety and functionality of petrochemical plants after a strong earthquake is critical, particularly due to the presence of hazardous chemical materials stored in pressurized vessels and reaction tanks that can be flammable or toxic. Strong earthquakes in chemical units can cause severe stru...

uniaxial compressive strengthPhenoblasticMilky and Intermediate rocksaltsOur evaluation of prevalent construction practice in Taiwan revealed several configuration issues and a serious and systemic lack of attention to established seismic design and construction procedures for reinforced concrete buildings. Steel ...
This would further lower the micro-mechanical properties of new cement paste and weaken the RCA/pastebonding thereby causing poorer compressive/flexural strength of RAPC. However, the poor cohesiveness at larger RCA water absorptions could create more connected pores for superior permeability. The high...
The evolution of mechanical properties of HMC and the correlation between cubic compressive strength and other mechanical properties are studied. Compared to river sand, manufactured sand enhances the cubic compressive strength, axial compressive strength and elastic modulus of concrete, while its potential...
ConcreteSilty sandBenin CityStrengthQualityThe purpose of this study is to carry out tests on concrete made with a typical Benin City silty sand and determine the major concrete quality indicators such as pulse velocity, water/cement ratio and compressive strength in order to justify the continued ...
This volume expansion reduces the compressive and tensile strength of reinforced concrete structures and, consequently, weakens the structures, making them prone to considerable damages in natural and human disasters. Hence, it is vital to evaluate the resilience and vulnerability of important structures,...
This corrosion would emerge in the form of uniform reduction of the reinforcement bars diameter of the columns and shear walls as well as the reduction of compressive strength of the concrete cover and steel yield stress to the structure. Fragility and vulnerability curves associated with the ...
