Compressive strength and microstructure of ordinary cured and autoclaved cement-based composites with mechanically activated kaolins
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The effects of two different mechanically activated kaolins, AKV (61% kaolinite, 14% quartz and 16% mica) and AKG (51.6% kaolinite and 40.6% quartz) on the compressive strength of cement composites and microstructure of ...
Removal of toxic metals from industrial sludge by fixing in brick structure
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
The aim of this study was to test utilization possibilities of industrial sludge in masonry industry, as well as risk of toxic elements leaching potential. Sludge is generated in a hot-dip galvanizing process after waste ...
Study on the addition effect of metakaolin and mechanically activated kaolin on cement strength and microstructure under different curing conditions
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The effects of thermally (MK) or mechanically activated kaolin (AK) on the compressive strength of mortars and microstructure of pastes were investigated. Mortar mixtures, in which 10%, 20% and 30% of ordinary Portland ...
The influence of nano-silica and barite aggregate on properties of ultra high performance concrete
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
The development of building materials with improved characteristics and their application for increasing structure durability and sustainability is one of the goals in construction sector. The main objective of this paper ...
Concrete paving blocks and flags made with crushed brick as aggregate
(Construction and Building Materials, 2012)
Demolition of old buildings in urban cores has produced a large amount of waste material. Since they are mostly masonry structures the largest part of the waste material is ceramic waste. Besides that, ceramic waste is ...
The effect of alternations in mineral additives (zeolite, bentonite, fly ash) on physico-chemical behavior of Portland cement based binders
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Instrumental analyses accompanied by analytical modeling tools were employed to assess physico-chemical changes induced by variations in chemical composition of cementitious composites, i.e. mortar binders. Coal combustion ...
The study of thermal behavior of montmorillonite and hydromica brick clays in predicting tunnel kiln firing curve
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The aim of this study was to test montmorillonite and hydromica type of brick clays by using simultaneous thermal analysis and dilatometry in an assessment of the suitability of brick clays to produce building elements. ...
