ABSTRACT Increase in industrial and construction activities has led to an enormous rise in waste generation and its hazardous impacts on the environment. Quarrying of rocks and manufacturing of artificial sands for civil engineering projects leads to the dumping of rock waste dust, which is a source of landfill problems. Further, excessive energy requirements for cement manufacturing, higher greenhouse gas emissions and rapid depletion of natural resources have focused the research towards the development of environment friendly and sustainable materials such as geopolymers. In this paper, a novel geopolymer has been developed from industrial wastes such as basalt rock fines considering partial replacement with ground granulated blast furnace slag up to 30%. After a detailed mix-design investigation, the optimum molarity (M) of the sodium hydroxide solution was found to be 8 M whereas the optimum ratio (R) of sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide solution as 0.75. Unconfined compressive strength evaluation showed 7-day strengths up to 34 MPa, comparable to geopolymers based on conventional precursor materials. The scanning electron microscopy imaging of the specimens revealed a dense geopolymer gel formation resulting in a homogeneous microstructure. As a result, this innovative material produced can be used as an alternative, sustainable and cost-effective construction material.
摘要工业和建筑活动的增加导致废物产生及其对环境的有害影响大幅增加。土木工程项目的岩石采石和人造砂制造导致了岩石废料粉尘的倾倒,这是垃圾填埋问题的根源之一。此外,水泥制造业对能源的过度需求、温室气体排放量的增加和自然资源的快速消耗,使研究集中在开发地质聚合物等环境友好和可持续的材料上。本文从玄武岩等工业废物中开发了一种新型地质聚合物,考虑用高达30%的磨细高炉矿渣部分替代。经过详细的配合比设计研究,发现氢氧化钠溶液的最佳摩尔浓度(M)为8M,而硅酸钠与氢氧化钠溶液的最优比例(R)为0.75。无侧限抗压强度评估显示,7天强度高达34MPa,与基于传统前体材料的地质聚合物相当。样品的扫描电子显微镜成像显示,形成了致密的地质聚合物凝胶,形成了均匀的微观结构。因此,生产的这种创新材料可以用作替代、可持续和成本效益高的建筑材料。

ABSTRACT Construction industries around the world are facing many difficulties in obtaining good-quality fine aggregates for concrete and mortar due to a shortage of river sand. This problem leads the researchers to find possible alternatives to replace river sand in construction. A brief review has been carried out to identify the alternatives suggested by researchers, merits and demerits of substitutions, availability of standards, and previous studies on the effects of replacing river sand with alternatives in concrete and mortar. Manufactured sand (M Sand), offshore sand, sea sand, quarry dust, and demolition waste have been identified as the most common substitutions for river sand. M Sand and quarry dust have more angularity, rougher surface, higher total specific surface, and lower presence of deleterious substances than river sand, offshore sand, and sea sand. These characteristics played a vital role in the fresh, hardened, and durability performance of cement-based mixes where studies revealed both positive and negative outcomes when comparing with river sand concrete and mortar. Intensely, the strengths of cement-based mixes were improved with angular and rough particles while the workability was declined. The void content and specific surface of alternatives manifested pivotal effects on water absorption of concrete and mortar.
由于河砂的短缺,世界各地的建筑行业在获得高质量的混凝土和砂浆细骨料方面面临许多困难。这个问题促使研究人员在建筑中寻找可能的替代品来取代河砂。简要回顾了研究人员提出的替代品、替代品的优点和缺点、标准的可得性,以及在混凝土和砂浆中用替代品替代河砂的影响的先前研究。人造砂(M砂)、近海砂、海砂、采石场粉尘和拆除废物已被确定为最常见的河砂替代品。M砂和采石场粉尘比河砂、近海砂和海砂棱角更大,表面更粗糙,总比表面积更高,有害物质含量更低。这些特性对水泥基混合料的新鲜、硬化和耐久性性能起着至关重要的作用,研究表明,与河砂混凝土和砂浆相比,水泥基混合料的结果既有积极的,也有消极的。角状颗粒和粗颗粒增强了水泥基混合料的强度,但降低了和易性。替代材料的孔隙率和比表面积对混凝土和砂浆的吸水率有举足轻重的影响。

ABSTRACT Geopolymer concrete is gradually assuming significance from the point of sustainability in the concrete industry. The reinforced concrete corbels are used for supporting the precast beams. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the interface shear strength of reinforced geopolymer concrete corbels. A total of forty-five symmetric double cantilever reinforced GPC corbels were cast and tested. The parameters of the study include the compressive strength of GPC and the percentage of secondary reinforcement i.e. closed loop ties crossing the interface. The experimental shear strength at the interface of reinforced geopolymer concrete corbels obtained is compared with available analytical models and design codes applicable to the conventional concrete. The results of the study indicated that the interface shear capacity of geopolymer concrete was evaluated based on conventional concrete analytical models that underestimates the shear capacity of GPC corbels. Further the experimental shear strengths of corbel are about 9% higher than the predicted interface shear strength of GPC corbels using the analytical expression proposed in this paper.
摘要:从混凝土行业的可持续性角度来看,地质聚合物混凝土正逐渐发挥着重要作用。钢筋混凝土牛腿用于支撑预制梁。本文对地质聚合物混凝土牛腿的界面抗剪强度进行了试验研究。共铸造并测试了45个对称双悬臂增强GPC牛腿。研究的参数包括GPC的抗压强度和二次加固的百分比,即穿过界面的闭环连接。将所获得的加筋地质聚合物混凝土牛腿界面处的试验抗剪强度与适用于传统混凝土的现有分析模型和设计规范进行了比较。研究结果表明,地质聚合物混凝土的界面抗剪能力是基于传统的混凝土分析模型来评估的,该模型低估了GPC牛腿的抗剪能力。此外,牛腿的实验剪切强度比本文提出的分析表达式预测的GPC牛腿的界面剪切强度高出约9%。

ABSTRACT A methodology for the analysis of soil slope made up of c-ϕ soil using a modified pseudo-dynamic approach is tried to develop here. In this study, the slope is divided into a number of vertical slices and the failure surface of the slope is assumed to be logarithmic spiral. The suggested modified pseudo-dynamic approach satisfies the zero-stress boundary condition at the free ground surface and considers the damping properties of the materials. Results of the present analysis are presented in tabular form. The effects of the variation of different parameters like horizontal and vertical seismic acceleration, slope angle, soil friction angle, damping ratio, frequency ratio, cohesion and surcharge on the FOS are shown graphically. Consequently, required reinforcement strength is evaluated to ensure the safety of the slope under seismic loading conditions. The results obtained from the present method are compared with the results of the available literature and also a numerical validation of the model is given using PLAXIS 2D.
摘要本文尝试开发一种使用改进的拟动力方法分析由c-?土组成的土质边坡的方法。在本研究中,将边坡划分为多个垂直切片,并假设边坡的破坏面为对数螺旋。所提出的修正拟动力方法满足自由地面的零应力边界条件,并考虑了材料的阻尼特性。本分析结果以表格形式呈现。图中显示了水平和垂直地震加速度、边坡角、土壤摩擦角、阻尼比、频率比、内聚力和超载等不同参数的变化对FOS的影响。因此,对所需的钢筋强度进行了评估,以确保边坡在地震荷载条件下的安全。将本方法获得的结果与现有文献的结果进行了比较,并使用PLAXIS 2D对模型进行了数值验证。

ABSTRACT Diaphragm walls are the ideal solutions for constructive utilisation of underground space to surmount the space constraints causing hindrance to infrastructural developments in urban areas. Accurate analysis methods to determine the wall forces and deformations are vital for the safe and cost-effective implementation of diaphragm wall projects. This paper describes a simplified method formulated for the analysis of diaphragm walls to process design values. The developed methodology is a combination of the net pressure method, the apparent pressure method and the limit equilibrium concept, with modifications to mitigate the demerits of each method towards the applicability for diaphragm walls. The design values for each excavation stage of a diaphragm wall supported excavation acted upon by any loading condition and ground water level can be computed with the methodology. Formulations for determining vertical axial forces are developed from the basic concepts of pile foundations by modifying the expressions to integrate the specific requirements of diaphragm walls. The developed formulations are validated against numerical analysis with Plaxis by comparing wall internal forces and axial strut forces. Around 90% of the results were found to have a percentage variation of less than 10% compared to Plaxis results, indicating the suitability of the method for application to diaphragm walls.
地下连续墙是建设性利用地下空间的理想解决方案,可以克服阻碍城市基础设施发展的空间限制。准确的分析方法来确定墙的力和变形对于地下连续墙项目的安全和成本效益的实施至关重要。本文介绍了一种简化的地下连续墙分析方法,以处理设计值。所开发的方法是净压力法、表观压力法和极限平衡概念的结合,并进行了修改,以减轻每种方法在适用于连续墙方面的缺点。在任何荷载条件和地下水位的作用下,地下连续墙支撑开挖的每个开挖阶段的设计值都可以用该方法计算。确定垂直轴向力的公式是从桩基的基本概念出发,通过修改表达式来整合地下连续墙的具体要求。通过比较壁内力和轴向支柱力,利用Plaxis对所开发的公式进行了数值分析验证。与Plaxis结果相比,约90%的结果的百分比变化小于10%,表明该方法适用于地下连续墙。

ABSTRACT Foamed bitumen stabilisation is a unique pavement treatment option for improving new granular materials or rehabilitating existing granular layers that have exceeded their serviceable life. As a type of expedient construction technology, the application of foamed bitumen stabilisation technology to Australian pavements is exceptionally promising, with the product of the stabilisation process being a flexible material for use as base and subbase course, but with an increased modulus and reduced susceptibility to the effects of moisture ingress. Increasing demands on pavements, compounded with quality unbound pavement materials proving more difficult to acquire is necessitating the hauling of materials over long distances and this significantly increases typical pavement construction and maintenance costs. However, stabilisation of existing, marginal and non-standard granular materials can offer a logistically convenient and cost-effective solution. This paper reviews the design, construction and characterisation of foamed bitumen stabilised granular material for pavements. First, the technology of foamed bitumen stabilisation is summarised and then the design and production practices are reviewed, before concluding with future developments for stabilisation practices.
摘要:泡沫沥青稳定是一种独特的路面处理选择,用于改善新的颗粒材料或修复超过使用寿命的现有颗粒层。作为一种权宜之计的施工技术,泡沫沥青稳定技术在澳大利亚路面上的应用非常有前景,稳定过程的产物是一种用作基层和底基层的柔性材料,但模量增加,对水分进入影响的敏感性降低。对路面的需求不断增加,再加上难以获得的优质未粘合路面材料,需要长距离运输材料,这大大增加了典型的路面施工和维护成本。然而,稳定现有的、边缘的和非标准的颗粒材料可以提供一个后勤方便和成本效益高的解决方案。本文综述了用于路面的泡沫沥青稳定粒料的设计、施工和特性。首先,总结了泡沫沥青稳定技术,然后回顾了设计和生产实践,最后总结了稳定实践的未来发展。

Influence of blockaid chairs on compression and out-of-plane behaviour of reinforced masonry walls 砌块椅对加筋砌体墙体抗压及面外性能的影响

ABSTRACT Changes in Australian Masonry Standards and National Code of Construction for reinforced masonry (RM) under compression impress the need of a grout annulus and vertical bar confinement using 6 mm tie bars. Maintaining the verticality and centricity of reinforcement and restraining them with the tie bars is challenging and time consuming. BlockAid have designed masonry bar chairs to align and restrain the reinforcing bars central in the block cores. This paper presents an investigation to ascertain the performance of BlockAid bar chairs in supporting the reinforcing bars in the RM walls subject to vertical compression and out-of-plane loads. The mean compressive strength in the fully grouted RM walls with BlockAid bar chairs was determined equivalent to the control specimen which sustained maximum load of 3100kN, compared to 3030kN for the BlockAid sample. Strain in the vertical steel bars, with BlockAid bar chairs, remained compressive throughout the loading with no evidence of buckling. The out-of-plane test results of BlockAid walls were similar in terms of failure modes, load-displacement behaviour and steel strain variations. These observations conclude that BlockAid bar chairs are effective in restraining the vertical bars against buckling and do not compromise the compression and bending capacity of RM walls.
摘要:澳大利亚砌体标准和国家建筑规范中关于受压钢筋砌体(RM)的变化,强调了使用6mm拉杆限制灌浆环和垂直钢筋的必要性。保持钢筋的垂直度和中心性,并用拉结筋加以约束,既有挑战性,又耗时。BlockAid设计了砖石钢筋座,以对齐和约束砌块核心中的钢筋。本文旨在确定BlockAid钢筋椅在承受垂直压缩和平面外荷载的RM墙中支撑钢筋的性能。测定了具有BlockAid条形支座的完全灌浆RM墙的平均抗压强度,相当于承受3100kN最大载荷的对照样品,而BlockAid样品的平均抗压力为3030kN。使用BlockAid钢筋座的垂直钢筋中的应变在整个荷载过程中保持压缩状态,没有屈曲的迹象。BlockAid墙的平面外测试结果在破坏模式、荷载-位移行为和钢应变变化方面相似。这些观察结果得出的结论是,BlockAid钢筋椅在抑制垂直钢筋弯曲方面是有效的,并且不会影响RM墙的压缩和弯曲能力。

ABSTRACT This work focus on the effect of Microwave power, Ozonation and Fenton reagent in microwave coupling Ozonation and Fenton oxidation process for the disintegration of COD of leachate. The experimental parameters like pH, COD, temperature, Oxidant dosage, microwave power and reaction time were varied. The results showed that 70% of COD removal efficiency was achieved at 450 W within 10 minutes interval in microwave process, 57.4% of COD removal efficiency was achieved at 60 minutes, ozone dosage 159 mg/L, pH 11. In Fenton Process, 52.91% COD removal efficiency at 60 minutes with H2O2 66.47 mµ/L and Fe2+ 80 mµ/L. Individual process showed an adverse reaction time consumption. On comparison of three processes, microwave achieved higher COD removal with shorter reaction time. In O3+ Fe process 83% COD removal was achieved at 75 minutes of reaction time. The experiment revealed the combined process of M+ O3+ Fe induces to the disintegration of COD in Leachate with a shorter reaction period.
本文研究了微波功率、臭氧和芬顿试剂在微波耦合臭氧和芬ton氧化过程中对渗滤液COD分解的影响。实验参数如pH、COD、温度、氧化剂用量、微波功率和反应时间都是不同的。结果表明,在微波处理中,在450 W、10分钟内COD去除率达到70%,在臭氧用量为159 mg/L、pH为11的条件下,60分钟COD去除率达57.4%。在Fenton工艺中,H2O2和Fe2+80 mµ/L在60分钟内对COD的去除率为52.91%。个别过程显示出不良反应时间消耗。通过三种工艺的比较,微波对COD的去除率较高,反应时间较短。在O3+Fe工艺中,反应时间为75分钟,COD去除率达到83%。实验表明,M+O3+Fe的联合作用可使渗滤液中的COD在较短的反应时间内分解。

ABSTRACT The seasonal distribution coefficients of traffic volume have not been yet taken into account in asphalt pavement design in China. Through comprehensive analysis on the assessed data and the factors affecting monthly distribution coefficients of traffic volume in different areas, the monthly and seasonal distribution coefficients of traffic volume in Harbin city, China has been predicted and determined using a back propagation (BP) neural network algorithm. The research contents involve data investigation and analysis of monthly distribution coefficients of traffic volume, analysing the factors affecting the mentioned coefficients, prediction and determination of monthly and seasonal distribution coefficients of traffic volume, and application of those coefficients, etc. Through the application of monthly and seasonal distribution coefficients, the seasonal traffic volumes in a year were calculated, and the application results demonstrated that the seasonal distribution of traffic volume has a scientific rationality. In addition, this study indicated that the seasonal traffic volume could accurately evaluate the actual conditions about axle loads on the pavement, resulting in the asphalt pavement design to be more rational. Eventually, the findings could appropriately meet the requirements of actual vehicle loads passing on the road surface.

ABSTRACT The multi T-beam finite element model with an initial crack was generated based on the element and direct methods. The element method was used to evaluate the bonding performance of the fibre reinforced plastic (FRP)-to a concrete interface. On the other hand, the direct method introduced the basic theory of elastic fracture mechanics and calculated the crack tip energy release rate of the initial crack. In addition, the crack propagation risk before and after hybrid bonding FRP (HB-FRP) reinforcement was discussed. The simulation results showed that under traffic load, the bonding stress of FRP-concrete interface is very small in the absence of an initial crack, but the intermediate crack (IC) debonding is easier occurred at the flexural crack of the beam mid-span. With the function of the mechanical fastener, the interface debonding was suppressed with regard to overloading less than 4 times the design traffic load. Furthermore, it was shown that the higher the crack was, the greater the G I value was at the crack tip, which means a more unstable the crack was, and the easier it was to propagate. Also, the higher the initial crack was, the weaker the effect of HB-FRP reinforcement was in suppressing crack propagation.
基于单元法和直接法建立了含初始裂纹的多T梁有限元模型。采用单元法对纤维增强塑料(FRP)与混凝土界面的粘结性能进行了评价。另一方面,直接法引入了弹性断裂力学的基本理论,计算了初始裂纹的裂尖能量释放率。此外,还讨论了混合粘结FRP(HB-FRP)加固前后的裂纹扩展风险。模拟结果表明,在交通荷载作用下,在没有初始裂缝的情况下,FRP-混凝土界面的粘结应力很小,但在梁跨中的弯曲裂缝处更容易发生中间裂缝(IC)脱胶。利用机械紧固件的功能,在超载小于设计交通荷载4倍的情况下,界面脱粘得到抑制。此外,研究表明,裂纹越高,裂纹尖端的G I值越大,这意味着裂纹越不稳定,越容易扩展。此外,初始裂纹越高,HB-FRP补强对裂纹扩展的抑制作用越弱。
