Cement substitution in self compacting concrete (SCC) is emphasized to conserve environment, reduce cost and utilize waste materials. This paper focuses on comparing the permeability and drying shrinkage of SCC containing Wollastonite micro fiber (WMF), a cheap pozzolanic fiber with respect to flyash. Microsilica was added for providing required viscosity to maintain homogeneity of the mixes. T...

background: scuba diving is one of the fastest growing sports in the world. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of pressure variations to which divers are exposed on the pull out strength of glass fiber post luted with different cements. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 120 extracted, single-rooted lower premolars were endodontically treated. they were randomly ...

Various types of fibers like glass, steel, coconut fiber, sugarcane bagasse etc are used to increase the mechanical properties concrete. SCBF is final residue sugar industries which in this study. The objective paper study effect geopolymer concrete (GPC) and conventional (CC) equivalent grade M40 when it subjected alternative drying wetting. specimens treated with water by wetting process. Thi...

As a vibration- free concrete, self- compacting concrete (SCC) can be easily used in the absence of consolidation, therefore; it is a good option for repairing and retrofitting concrete structures. The quality of repair layer is highly effective on a successful repair. Accordingly, in this study, factors affecting the quality of fiber-reinforced self-compacting concrete repair layer, including ...
