Prediction Model of Compressive Strength of Fly Ash-Slag Concrete Based on Multiple Adaptive Regression Splines

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

PROPERTIES OF ALKALI-ACTIVATED FLY ASH CONCRETE BLENDED WITH SLAG

Effect of Synthesis Parameters on the Compressive Strength of Fly Ash Based Geopolymer Concrete

The paper presents the effect of different synthesis parameters, such as (a) fly ash to alkaline solution ratio, (b) concentration of NaOH solution, (c) concentration of sodium silicate solution, (d) geopolymer solids to water ratio and (e) sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide solution ratio, on the compressive strength of geopolymer concrete synthesized from fly ash of Indian origin. It is obse...

Prediction Compressive Strength of Self-Compacting Concrete Containing Fly Ash Using Fuzzy Logic Inference System

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) developed in Japan in the late 80s has enabled the construction industry to reduce demand on the resources, improve the work condition and also reduce the impact of environment by elimination of the need for compaction. Fuzzy logic (FL) approaches has recently been used to model some of the human activities in many areas of civil engineering applications. Especial...

Prediction of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Compressive Strength

Nowadays, the better performance of lightweight structures during earthquake has resulted in using lightweight concrete more than ever. However, determining the compressive strength of concrete used in these structures during their service through a none-destructive test is a popular and useful method.  One of the main methods of non-destructive testing in the assessment of compressive strength...
