The stability of fresh concrete should be properly considered to ensure the quality of building
engineering while requiring its high flowability. The poor fresh state stability is detrimental to …

Rheological assessment and characterization of fresh cement pastes play a key role in
designing mixes for a variety of applications, including 3D printing. However, there is …

This study analyzed the performance of self-compacting concrete with a paste composition
that includes limestone filler and metakaolin replacing cement to design binary (75% cement …

During acid rain concrete begins to lose its mechanical strength that lead to cracking, weight
losing and finally, destruction of structures. Since the control of acid rain and its effects on …

Ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) is an emerging construction material with its
superior mechanical properties. However, UHPC requires high amount of energy intensive …

The current study investigates the applicability of using the Artificial Neural Networks and
Support Vector Machines to predict 28-day compressive strength of Self-Compacting …

Using a high or low amount of cementitious material, water-cement ratio (W/C), and
superplasticizer (SP) cause instability and reduction in compressive strength of concrete …

Self-leveling mortar (SLM) is a special mortar that can flow and fill under its own weight
without the need for any compaction energy. To meet these characteristics and to ensure …

This study examines an attempt to produce self-compacting concrete (SCC) containing fly
ash (FA), ground granulated blast furnace slag (S) and both (FA+ S). The effects of these …

This study aimed to investigate a form of ferrocement that was a hollow ferrocement beam of
self-compacting mortar reinforced with various types of metallic (steel bars, steel wire mesh) …
