An Environment-Friendly Conductive Concrete

Microbial Self-Healing Concrete: Denitrification as an Enhanced and Environment-Friendly Approach

ID No : 43 ABSTRACT Concrete tends to crack due to its relatively low tensile strength which jeopardizes the good condition of steel reinforcement bars. Concrete cracks start at micro level and facilitate ingression of corrosive substances such as SO4 , Cl, O2. Corrosion of the rebar may result in failure of the structure. Self-healing concrete can provide crack repair immediately after crack i...

Green Concrete: An Efficient and Eco-Friendly Sustainable Building Material

Green concrete is a concept of thinking environment into concrete considering every aspect from raw materials manufacture over mixture design to structural design, construction and service life. Green concrete is a type of concrete which resembles the conventional concrete but the production or usage of such concrete requires minimum amount of energy and causes least harm to the environment. Si...

Airfield Pavement Deicing with Conductive Concrete Overlay

Conductive concrete is a cementitious admixture containing a certain volumetric ratio of electrically conductive materials to attain high and stable electrical conductivity. Due to its electrical resistance, a thin overlay of conductive concrete can generate enough heat to prevent ice formation when energized by AC power. Under a research sponsored by Nebraska Department of Roads, Yehia and Tua...

Conductive Concrete: A Shielding Constructurion Material

Environment-Friendly Safety

Of special interest in verification are safety properties, which assert that the system always stays within some allowed region. For closed systems, the theoretical properties of safety properties as well as their practical advantages with respect to general properties are well understood. For open (a.k.a. reactive) systems, whose behavior depends on their on-going interaction with the environm...
