INTERLOCKING CONCRETE MASONRY UNIT GEOMETRY DESIGN By Raquel Avila, Nick Jensen SENIOR DESIGN PROJECT REPORT Submitted to the Department of Civil Engineering of SANTA CLARA UNIVERSITY in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering Santa Clara, California Spring 2015 Abstract Earthquakes in Haiti and Nepal left many people devastated. Millions of people were initially displaced and forced to reside in displacement camps. Developing countries like these need a form of economical construction. Our design and manufacturing process for interlocking CMU (concrete masonry unit) blocks can help build low-cost homes quickly and efficiently. Wall construction costs are reduced because skilled masons are not needed to build the wall. Instead, unskilled homeowners and laborers can stack the interlocking blocks, which serve as forms for the subsequent placement of reinforcement and grout within some of the CMU block voids.

MONOLITHILIC CONCRETE: A single pour which includes the footing and slab concrete in a single pour . 6. POST-TENSION CONCRETE: A method of stressing reinforced concrete by which the tendons or cables are tightened after the concrete slab has hardened and in place. 24 7. PRE-CAST CONCRETE: Concrete which is cast and cured in a place other than it’s final resting position. ( Beams, Columns, Slabs, Lintels ) 8. PRE-STRESSED CONCRETE: A process of preparing concrete slabs and beams for extra strength by pouring concrete over tightly drawn steel cables, steel rods or tendons. 9. REINFORCED CONCRETE: Concrete with added materials such as steel rod, wire mesh, fiber mesh, dowel bars, expanded metal fabric, or cold drawn wire cable which act together with the concrete to resist cracking or movement B.

The external concrete parts are removed from the column surface along the whole plastic hinge region to uncover the steel reinforcement. The transverse steel is cut away, and each longitudinal rebar is locally substituted by steel rebar segments connected by welding connections to the original undamaged rebar pieces outside the intervention zone. The new rebar segments have a reduced diameter achieved by turning to ensure plastic deformation only in the plastic hinge, protecting the original rebar and the welding connections.

Compressive strength tests were done to investigate the mechanical property of the concrete samples. By increasing immersion time, all concrete samples containing MS indicated a reduction in water absorption value compared to the concrete sample without MS. The samples with 8 wt% MS exhibited the highest compressive strength after 8 weeks exposure time in a 1M HCl solution. The value of OCP for the steel reinforced concrete specimens with 8 wt% MS remained in the uncertain or low corrosion zone during the process. The EIS results showed that the 8 wt% MS sample had a higher the concrete resistance and charge-transfer resistance compared to other samples, showing lower porosity of concrete structure and thus more improvement in corrosion resistance of the mild steel surface.
