  • 1.1 What Is Concrete Masonry?
    1.1 What is Concrete Masonry? Introduction Concrete masonry construction (or as it is more and Specifiers are using Architectural Masonry in commonly called, concrete blockwork) is based on more commercial and residential applications. thousands of years experience in building structures of stone, mud and clay bricks. Blockwork masonry Using the various textures of Fair Face, Honed and units are hollow and are filled with concrete and Splitface is adding a lot more variety to the features allow for the integration of reinforcing steel, a feature of the wall. essential for earthquake resistant design. Concrete blockwork provides a structural and architectural advantage in one material and is recognised worldwide as a major contributor to the construction and building industry. Types of Concrete Blockwork The workhorse of concrete masonry has traditionally been stretcher bond blockwork forming structural, fire and acoustic functions from residential to large commercial buildings as well as the special use in retaining walls. With the introduction of coloured masonry Architects Figure 1: Commercial Stretcher Bond Blockwork Figure 2: Coloured Honed Blockwork Figure 3: Coloured Honed Blockwork Figure 4: Coloured Fairface, Honed and Splitface Blockwork Figure 5: Splitface Blockwork New Zealand Concrete Masonry Association Inc. Figure 6: Honed Half High Blockwork Figure 7: Honed Natural Blockwork There are also masonry blocks that include polystyrene inserts which provide all the structural benefits of a normal masonry block with the added advantage of built-in insulation. Building with these blocks removes the need for additional insulation - providing the added design flexibility of a solid plastered finish both inside and out. The word “Concrete Masonry” also encompasses a wide variety of products such as, brick veneers, retaining walls, paving and kerbs.

  • Development and Evaluation of Nano-Silica Sustainable Concrete
    applied sciences Article Development and Evaluation of Nano-Silica Sustainable Concrete Habib H. Alqamish and Adil K. Al-Tamimi * Department of Civil Engineering, American University of Sharjah, Sharjah 26666, UAE; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In the last decade, nanomaterials made a major breakthrough in the concrete industry by providing the concrete with unique properties. Earlier studies have shown improvement in the early strength of concrete that can accelerate the construction process. In this study, 1% and 2% of nano-silica were added to concrete mixtures that contain 30% and 70% ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS). Adding 1% of nano-silica to the 30% GGBS mixture showed an increase in the compressive strength by 13.5%, 7.8%, 8.1%, and 2.2% at one day, three days, seven days, and twenty-eight days, respectively. The 2% of nano-silica increased the 30% GGBS mixture’s compressive strength less effectively by 4.3%, 7.6%, and 4.9% at three days, seven days, and 28 days, respectively, when compared to the 1%. On the other hand, adding 1% and 2% of nano-silica reduced the 70% GGBS mixtures’ compressive strength. Moreover, nano-silica reduced the deformability of the mixtures significantly, which caused the increase in the Young’s modulus. The flexural strength of the 30% GGBS mixtures had similar behavior as the 28-day compressive strength. On the other hand, the flexural strength of the 70% GGBS mixtures increased as the nano-silica increased. Nano-silica addition improved the microstructure and the interface structure of the mixtures due to its high pozzolanic activity and the nano-filler effect, which is confirmed by RCPT results and SEM images.

Gypsum as an initial setting time regulation additive is replaced by a system based on lignosulfonane of alkali metal and carbonate of alkali metal. This binder features high initial strength and short initial setting time; subsequently, these properties continue in concretes made with this binding material. Concrete with gypsum-free cement is characterized with short setting time and high initial strength. Concrete with gypsum-free cement has comparable strength after 3 days of curing with a 28 days strength of common concrete with Portland cement containing gypsum. Our paper describes methodology and calibration relations for both – GFC strength determination through ultrasonic pulse velocity and strength determination of types of concrete made with GFC using ball thrust hardness test. The last-named method is applicable for GFC compression strength determination; and also for types concrete based on GFC, commendable are impact hammers (Schmidt Impact Hammers type N and/or L respectively – made by PROCEQ Co., Switzerland).

  • Investigation on the Properties of Concrete Replacing Cement and Natural Sand with Metakaolin and Robo Sand Abstract
    ISSN: 2455-2631 © May 2019 IJSDR | Volume 4, Issue 5 INVESTIGATION ON THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE REPLACING CEMENT AND NATURAL SAND WITH METAKAOLIN AND ROBO SAND ABSTRACT Zubair Ahmad Khan1, V S Sagu2 1M. Tech Scholar, 2H.O.D Parnnath Parnami institute of management and technology Hisar Abstract: Concrete is the most extensively used construction material in the world, which consumes natural resources like lime, aggregates and water. The worldwide production of cement has greatly increased, due to this production environmental pollution increases with emission of CO2 gas. To reduce this effect cement was replaced by some supplementary materials like Metakaolin, Fly ash, Bottom Ash, Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) and Rice Husk etc.. In this content Metakaolin was a pozzolanic material used in wide range in replacement of cement. Metakaolin is dehydroxylated aluminum silicate, due to its pozzolanic activity the strength properties and durability properties of concrete increases and reduction in Porosity and Permeability also. Now-a-day’s availability of natural sand is constraint, so alternative material called ROBO Sand (having similar properties as that Natural Sand) is used in place of Natural sand to study the fresh and hardened properties of concrete. In this present investigation cement is replaced partially with metakaolin in varying percentage i.e. 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% and natural sand with 50% ROBO sand to get the different concrete mixes. The fresh and mechanical properties of concrete i.e. workability (slump test) and compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength at 7 days, 28 days and 90 days are studied of the different concrete mixes and results are compared with conventional concrete.
