A single ton of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) demands around 4.0 G Joule energy and
creates about a ton of CO 2 emission. As part of our effort to preserve the environment, the …

Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) is a byproduct from the blast-furnaces of iron
and it is a very beneficial in the mortar and concrete production. The present paper reviews …

The development of ultra-high performance (UHPC) concrete was restricted due to the large
consumption and high cost of cement. In this study, eco-friendly UHPC was prepared by …

In this paper, the hydration of slag in blended cements is investigated through the
measurement of hydration reaction indicators such as portlandite content, non-evaporable …

This paper is a bibliographic tool reviewing experimental and theoretical studies related to
cement hydration and microstructure development that have been published within the four …

This work investigates the autogenous shrinkage of pastes and concretes prepared using
General Purpose cement and GGBFS (40% and 60%) up to 100 days. To determine the …

The use of supplementary cementitious materials reduces carbon emissions but can affect
the performance of concrete. An experimental study was conducted on the performance of …

Due to the intrinsic low reactivity of bottom ash (BA), it is not typically used as a direct
substitute for ordinary Portland cement (OPC). In this study, a BA-OPC composite was …

Fly ash cemented filling materials (FCFM) have received a great deal of attention in recent
years as more sustainable solutions to the large-scale utilization problems of fly ash and …

At present, concrete prefabricated elements commonly used in railway engineering in China
were produced by steam curing. Steam curing is a complex hygro-thermal coupling process …
