In this paper, research was conducted to investigate the performance of copper slag in self-
compacting concrete (SCC) pertaining to fresh and hardened properties. In this study …

This study covered the fresh and mechanical characteristics of self-compacting concrete
incorporating various fractions of (natural) roselle fibre (1 to 4% with 1% increment by weight …

This study aims to assess the mechanical performance of functionally graded concrete
(FGC) in comparison to conventional plain cement concrete (PCC) and fibre-reinforced …

The copper slag waste (CSW) is an industrial by-product, the annual production of which is
huge and its disposal and management are a big challenge for environmentalists. This …

This paper presents a focused comparative case study considering the influence of natural
and synthetic fibers on the fresh and mechanical properties of concrete. Locally sourced 19 …

Enhancing energy efficiency and structural capacity are the main objectives of masonry
retrofitting. However, a combined enhancement of both aspects is hardly achievable, as they …
