Physical and hydraulic properties of porous concrete
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract:] The work presented includes a review of the state of art of porous concrete. Its purpose is to evaluate the potential use of porous concrete in constructions where the level of surface runoff justifies it. A ...
Influence of the Mixing Procedure on the Fresh State Behaviour of Recycled Mortars
(Elsevier, 2021)
[Abstract] The effect of two different mixing protocols on the fresh-state behaviour of self-compacting mortars with and without recycled sand was compared. For this purpose, the mortar mixes were designed considering three ...
Waste-Based Porous Materials as Water Reservoirs for the Internal Curing of Concrete. A Review
(Elsevier, 2021)
[Abstract] This review collates findings from more than 100 scientific publications regarding the performance of several waste-based porous materials (WASPORs) as water reservoirs for the internal curing of concrete. Results ...
Masonry Mortars, Precast Concrete and Masonry Units Using Coal Bottom Ash as a Partial Replacement for Conventional Aggregates
(Elsevier, 2021)
[Abstract] Granular coal combustion products are problematic waste materials whose use as aggregates in concrete has been extensively studied. However, its integration into other non-structural materials and elements has ...
Effect of KyAl4(Si8-y) O20(OH)4 Calcined Based-Clay on the Microstructure and Mechanical Performances of High-Performance Concrete
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract:] The work described in this paper has been performed to determine the potential use of meta-illite (KyAl4(Si8-y) O20(OH)4) calcined clay (MCC) as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) in a binary Portland ...
Cunchas de mexillón para o desenvolvemento do material de construción
(ADEGA (Asociación para a Defensa Ecolóxica de Galiza), 2021)
[Resumo:] Proxecto Biovalvo, desenvolvido polo Grupo de Construción da Universidade da Coruña (UDC) e coa participación de diversas empresas, incluíu entre os seus obxectivos a aplicación das cunchas de mexillón como ...
Assessment of the permeability to aggressive agents of concrete with recycled cement and mixed recycled aggregate
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract:] Acceptance by the construction industry of recycled concrete as a sustainable alternative material is contingent upon a reliable assessment of its permeability to corrosive agents. This study analyses the ...
Resonance fatigue behaviour of concretes with recycled cement and aggregate
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract:] The huge increase in production of construction and demolition waste (CDW) worldwide is leading to the valorisation of as recycled aggregates. One of the most promising alternatives is its use as a recycled ...
Assessment of mussel shells building solutions: A real-scale application
(Elsevier, 2021)
[Abstract:] The construction sector is a key generator of greenhouse emissions, so the use of alternative low-emission building materials is a growing tendency. This work describes and analyses an innovative sustainable ...
Use of granular coal combustion products as aggregates in structural concrete: Effects on properties and recommendations regarding mix design
(Elsevier, 2021)
[Abstract:] This review collates the results obtained in more than 100 scientific publications regarding the performance of concrete with granular coal combustion products (GCCP, commonly referred to as coal bottom ash in ...
