This research focuses on the analysis of beam-column joints prepared using self-compacting concrete (SCC) incorporated with nano-silica (NS) and recycled coarse aggregates (RCA). For this purpose, beam-column joint behaviour of normal concrete, SCC incorporating RCA and NS was examined under static loading condition. Analysis of the experimental results indicates that the performance of the joints made with RCA is comparable with that of normal concrete in terms of cracking and ultimate load-carrying capacity. This study also depicts that compressive strength (CS) of SCC made with 100% RCA is somewhat higher than that of SCC made with normal aggregates. Moreover, enhancement in CS can be obtained with the introduction of NS in SCC containing 100% RCA.

Many industries produce several types of by-products in a large amount each year which is negatively affecting the environment by compromising human health and depleting the natural resources. Utilisation of such industrial by-products in the construction field has become an important step to address the environmental problems as well as to solve the waste disposal crisis. Fly ash (FA) is one of such by-products obtained from pulverised coal combustion in thermal power plants. FA can be utilised as substitution or addition of cement in making cement-based products. This paper critically analyses and summarises the influence of FA on characteristics of concrete. The physical, chemical properties of FA and its hydration reaction mechanism have been addressed in the present study. The influence of FA on the fresh and hardened properties such as workability, compressive and tensile strength, modulus of elasticity and durability characteristics like resistance to abrasion, permeability, chloride penetration, carbonation, sulphate attack and alkali silica reaction, freezing and thawing effect and shrinkage in concrete have been reviewed in this paper.

The primary goal of this research was to investigate the stiffness characteristics of trapezoidal corrugated composite laminates under tensile and flexural load. Stiffness was calculated experimentally, analytically, and numerically in two directions. The longitudinal direction was defined as perpendicular to the corrugations and transverse direction along the corrugations. The stiffness ratio is the ratio of longitudinal stiffness to transverse stiffness. The effects of corrugations were measured by comparing changes to the stiffness ratios of flat and corrugated composite beams in tension and bending. For corrugated fibreglass coupons, the extensional stiffness ratio was increased from 1.0 to 49 and the flexural stiffness ratio was increased from 0.3 to 187. For carbon fibre coupons, the extensional stiffness ratio increased from 0.7 to 61.3 and the flexural stiffness ratio increased from 0.3 to 81.4. Corrugation of composite beams has shown a significant increase in stiffness for tensile and bending applications.
