Investigation of concrete barriers with recycled rubber, steel slag and roof tile

Kurar, Ali

The purpose of aggregating rubber is to increase concrete’s flexibility, elasticity, and capacity to absorb energy. In some application of concrete, it is desired that concrete should have low unit weight, high toughness and impact resistance. Although concrete is the most commonly used construction material, it does not always fulfill these requirements. In order to improve elastic properties of concrete and recycle the waste materials, new applications have been realized recently. One of these applications is the utilization of discarded tires in order to use together with aggregate. ...Daha fazlası

Improvement of engineering properties and liquefaction reduction of sandy soils using electric arc furnace slag and roof tile powder

Agolli, Drinela

The scarcity of suitable land for construction of engineering facilities and shortage of natural earth aggregates has highlighted the need for finding innovative way of construction. Nowadays problematic soils such as: soft clay, organic soils and liquefiable soils can be improved to the required civil engineering requirements by application of soil stabilization. Soil stabilization is a method intended to increase or preserve the stability of soil mass and chemical alteration of soil to improve engineering properties. Generally, ground treatment techniques used are: densification, reinforcem ...Daha fazlası
