Strength and Durability Evaluation of Recycled Aggregate Concrete
(2015-06)
This paper discusses the suitability of producing concrete with 100 % recycled aggregate to meet durability and strength requirements for different applications. Aggregate strength, gradation, absorption, specific gravity, ...
Impact of Lateral Force-Resisting System and Design/Construction Practices on Seismic Performance and Cost of Tall Buildings in Dubai, UAE
(Springer, 2013-09)
The local design and construction practices in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), together with Dubai's unique rate of development, warrant special attention to the selection of Lateral Force-Resisting Systems (LFRS). This ...
Performance of Structures Exposed to Extreme High Temperature - An Overview
(2013-09)
Strength, durability and stability are the main criteria for material selection and design in the construction industry. Consequently, development and enhancement of construction materials is always an active and attractive ...
Shear Strength of Fiber Reinforced Recycled Aggregate Concrete
(MDPI, 2020)
In this paper, shear strength of fiber reinforced recycled concrete was investigated. A Self Consolidated Concrete (SCC) matrix with 100% coarse recycled aggregate and different types of fibers were used in the study. Steel ...
Effect of Aggregate Type and Specimen Configuration on Concrete Compressive Strength
(MDPI, 2020)
In this paper, concrete mixes utilizing two sizes of natural aggregate and two sources of lightweight and recycled aggregates were used to investigate the effect of aggregate type and specimen size and shape on the compressive ...
