Future Cements: Research Needs For Sustainability And Potential Of Lc3 Technolgyscrivener

Due to the enormous volumes produced the production of concrete accounts for around 5-10% of man-made CO2 emissions. Consideration of possible routes to reduce this environmental impact indicates that the use of calcined clays in as supplementary cementiti ...

Application of micro X-ray diffraction to investigate the reaction products formed by the alkali–silica reaction in concrete structures

Gervais Chapuis, Alla Arakcheeva, Philip Pattison

Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is one of the most important deterioration mechanisms in concrete leading to substantial damages of structures worldwide. Synchrotron-based micro-X-ray diffraction (micro-XRD) was employed to characterize the mineral phases for ...

Selected Aspects Of Designing Deep Excavations

Rafal Filip Obrzud

This paper analyzes two approaches to serviceability limit state (SLS) verification for the deep excavation boundary value problem. The verification is carried out by means of the finite element (FE) method with the aid of the commercial program ZSoil v201 ...

Experimental investigation on punching resistance of R-UHPFRC–RC composite slabs

Eugen Brühwiler, Maléna Bastien Masse

An effective method to strengthen existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures is to add a thin layer of Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced cement-based Composite (UHPFRC), with or without steel rebars, over the concrete slab to create a composite ele ...

Frequent walkers are multimodal in their actions and individualistic in their motivations, according to a qualitative study in two Swiss cities

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Derek Pierre Christie

We define “frequent walkers” as people who walk over one hour in public space on most days of the week. Because they have successfully undergone mode shift, such pioneers have the potential to initiate change towards sustainable transportation at populatio ...

Particle clustering phenomena in hot asphalt mixtures with high content of reclaimed asphalt pavements

André-Gilles Dumont, Sara Bressi, Manfred Partl

One challenge in efficient recycling of asphalt concrete is the adherence of the reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) particles or clustering that inhibits fulfilling the aggregate gradation requirements. In order to investigate this phenomenon two types of mi ...

Cluster phenomenon and partial differential aging in RAP mixtures

André-Gilles Dumont, Michel Pittet, Sara Bressi

The present study defines a procedure for gaining a better understanding of the interaction between the aged and the virgin binders and what actually occurs during a mix process. Indeed, the authors propose a methodology to determine and quantify the clust ...

Alkali-silica reaction: Current understanding of the reaction mechanisms and the knowledge gaps

Cyrille Dunant

Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is a major concrete durability problem, resulting in significant maintenance and reconstruction costs to concrete infrastructures all over the world. Despite decades of study, the underlying chemical and physical reaction mecha ...

Effect of load history on punching shear resistance of flat slabs

Thomas Keller, Robert Koppitz

The unloading of reinforced concrete slabs results in residual slab rotations and reloading to the same load results in irreversible rotation increases. Unloading and reloading (UR) cycles applied to non-strengthened and strengthened flat slabs may thus af ...
