Abstract Portland composite cement is a type of blended produced by the Indonesian factories where fly ash as one ingredient and production based on efforts to reduce CO 2 emissions in process. This research part sustainability infrastructure development which carried out through use cementitious material manufacture foam concrete. The purpose this paper was contribute understanding early age v...

Abstract The present study investigates the relation of compressive strength to indirect split-tensile strength, modulus rapture artificial sand concrete. For this purpose, concrete mixtures were prepared with M30 grade replacement fine aggregate partially thoroughly. Multiple regression models developed for split tensile-compressive and rapture-compressive results. also compared different code...

The predictability of masonry arch bridges and their behaviour is widely considered doubtful due to the lack of knowledge about the conditions of a given masonry arch bridge. The assessment methods for masonry arch bridges are MEXE, ARCHIE, RING and Frame Analysis Method. The material properties of the masonry and fill material are extremely difficult to determine accurately. Consequently, it i...

Freezing-thawing resistance is a very significant characteristic for concrete in severe environment (such as cold region with the lowest temperature below 0°C). In this study, ordinary-air-entrained (O-A-E) concrete was produced in a laboratory environment; the compressive strength, cubic compressive strength of C50, C40, C30, C25, and C20 ordinary-air-entrained concrete, tensile strength, and ...

With the strengthened regulation on the mandatory use of recycled aggregate, development of construction materials using recycled aggregate has recently increased. This study aimed to secure the performance of asphalt concrete mixture by developing recycled-modified asphalt using recycled basalt aggregate from the Jeju area. The strength of the basalt aggregate from the Jeju area used in this s...

effects of plant roots on increasing soil shear strength depend on root tensile strength. thus, determination of root tensile strength can provide the necessary data for analyzing root-soil relations. tensile strength of plant roots varied in a wide range and have been reported from thousands to millions of mpa. the main objective of this study was to assess inter-species variations of root ten...

failure of soft liners depends mostly on separation from the denture base resin; therefore measurement of the bond strength is very important. the purpose of this study was to compare the tensile bond strength of two soft liners (acropars, molloplast-b) to denture base resin before and after thermocycling.twenty specimens fromeach of the two different soft liners were processed according to the...

polymethyl methacrylate (pmma), widely used as a prosthodontic base, has many disadvantages, including a high thermal expansion coefficient and low thermal conductivity, a low elasticity coefficient, low impact strength and low resistance to fatigue. this study aimed to make an in vitro comparison of the thermal conductivity, compressive strength, and tensile strength of the acrylic base of com...
