Abstract:
The properties of recycled coarsee aggregates from repeatedly recycling waste concrete were determined. In this study, five series of concrete mixtures using coarse and fine natural aggregates were prepared, which have the same objective slump value from 35mm to 50mm and different compressive strengths ranging from 25MPa to 60 MPa. These five concretes were crushed, sieved, washed with water, hot treatmented at 300°C before they were used as recycled aggregates. After that, recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) was produced with an objectively compressive strength of 30MPa, in which the recycled c

Abstract:
Aggregate quality is very influential on the strength of the resulting concrete. Both coarse and fine aggregates have various characteristics identified from laboratory test results. This study aims to examine the use of various aggregates for a quality of concrete. The coarse aggregate and the fine aggregate used are obtained from the nearest location to the work to be performed. The quality of the concrete reviewed is K-125, K-175 and K-225. The coarse aggregates used are 1-2 size (in cm), 2-3 size (in cm) crushed aggregate and coral. The fine aggregates used for each of the coarse aggregate

The shape of coarse aggregate is an important factor determining the performance of concrete, and it also affects the whole mixing process. This article selected four typical coarse aggregates and simulated the motion behavior of the coarse aggregate and mortar in a dual horizontal axis mixer using discrete element software, EDEM. The mixing motion of coarse aggregates with different shapes and mortar was studied using average velocity, contact rate, and dispersion coefficient as indicators.

Recently recycled coarse aggregate concrete tends to be developed by using waste concrete considering environmental issues and conserving natural resources. However, performances of recycled coarse aggregate concrete are relative low compared with ordinary concrete due to the differences between recycled coarse aggregates and natural ones.

Rubberized cementitious composites are gaining focus in sustainable construction. Crumb rubber, sourced from waste tires, is used as a partial replacement for sand in concrete. However, rubber's low density, elasticity, and hydrophobic nature reduce workability and mechanical strength, owing to voids and poor compaction. To address these issues, supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) like silica fume and fly ash, along with polypropylene (PP) fibres, were incorporated in this study. A control mortar mix with a 1:4 cement-to-sand ratio was established, and 10% of the sand was replaced by c

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;The purpose of this study is to utilize Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) and Upcycled Concrete Aggregate (UCA) in civil engineering. PCC is a fine to coarse grain material generated during the production of sugar from sugar beets. UCA is produced from demolished and returned concrete by the extraction of primarily calcium and alkalinity. The test results on PCC alone show that the optimum content to achieve a minimum 28 MPa (4000 psi) compressive strength is up to 30% by weight of Portland cement. The corresponding compressive strength of mixes in which conventional aggregate was

Abstract:
Low-quality mineral aggregates can potentially lead to production, construction, and long-term performance-related problems in asphalt concrete pavements. Therefore, effective qualification criteria for mineral aggregates are paramount. This study was performed to investigate the effectiveness of the Los Angeles abrasion (LAA) test to assess the abrasion resistance of coarse aggregates commonly used in airfield asphalt paving. The LAA test acceptance criteria currently specified by state departments of transportation were examined and compared to the current Department of Defense criterion. Ad

Abstract:
Vibration compaction is the most effective way of compacting coarse-grained materials. The effects of vibration frequency and amplitude on the compaction density of different backfill materials commonly used by INDOT (No. 4 natural sand, No. 24 stone sand, and No. 5, No. 8, No. 43 aggregates) were studied in this research. The test materials were characterized based on the particle sizes and morphology parameters using digital image analysis technique. Small-scale laboratory compaction tests were carried out with variable frequency and amplitude of vibrations using vibratory hammer and vibrato

Abstract:
Although recent research has shed new light on the political determinants and economic consequences of tax lawmaking, existing analyses rely on coarse data measuring political aggregates. Consequently, little is known about the political processes determining how tax legislation is written or their effect on the nature of tax reforms. This paper therefore develops a methodology to examine how Congress edits the content of tax legislation by measuring the ways Deputies, Senators, Presidents, and Ministers propose and amend such legislation.

Full text
Abstract:
This work on lifting loops builds on previous investigations and testing (Chhetri et al, 2020; Chhetri et al, 2021) and considers additional design and detailing parameters for prestressing strand lifting loops. The results from the loops in lightweight concrete demonstrated the influence of Mohs hardness of the coarse aggregate on loop capacity. These loops generally performed better than the Mertz test loops in normalweight concrete (Chhetri et al., 2021), which had a softer coarse aggregate. In addition, the strand bond of the loops used for the lightweight concrete testing was higher. Both

The testing program on the two strips included multistage resilient modulus (MR) tests and extended cyclic performance tests with random distributed loading (RDL) on both the subbase and the underlying subgrade.

Full text
Abstract:
SMA is to be designed based on SMA volumetric properties in terms of air voids content (Va), voids in the mineral aggregate (VMA), and adequate stone-on-stone contact. For construction quality assurance (QA) purposes, INDOT currently accepts SMAs based on aggregate gradation and asphalt binder content. Thus, there is a discrepancy between SMA design criteria and construction acceptance. To better align design and construction, it is necessary to consider SMA volumetric properties in the use of QA. For HMA mixtures, INDOT has already transitioned from volumetric QA acceptance procedures to PWL.

Abstract:
As the most widely used construction material, concrete is very durable and can provide long service life without extensive maintenance. The strength and durability of concrete are primarily influenced by the initial water-cement ratio value (w/c), and the curing condition during the hardening process also influences its performance. The w/c value is defined as the total mass of free water that can be consumed by hydration divided by the total mass of cement and any additional pozzolanic material such as fly ash, slag, silica fume. Once placed, field concrete pavements are routinely cured with

This study examines the intricate trade interdependencies between Canada and the United States, highlighting how aggregate export–import figures can mask deeper economic realities. Approximately three-quarters of Canadian merchandise exports head to the United States each year, contributing to a bilateral merchandise trade surplus for Canada in the range of 100 to 170 billion Canadian dollars. Yet, when energy products are excluded, the United States shows a small surplus with Canada, illustrating how both sides benefit from specialized cross-border value chains.

Abstract:
The eccentric compression behaviors of L-shaped columns made of recycled aggregate concrete-filled square steel tubes (L-RACFST) with various replacement ratios of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) are introduced in this paper. The experimental study demonstrates that the overall instability failure is the final failure mode of the L-RACFST columns and that the replacement ratio of RCA has little influence on the final failure mode of the specimens. When the RCA replacement ratio exceeds 40%, the specimens frequently move right into the failure stage. Recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) inside ste
