The present novel research work emphasizes the characterization of binder materials, performance alkali-activated ternary paste & mortar consisting coffee husk ash (CHA), rice (RHA), and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). material for materials were carried out using advanced microstructural analysis techniques. A total nine pastes are prepared GGBS (70–50%), CHA (20–40%), RHA (10%) with 4 M, 6 M 8 sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution. tests conducted on fresh hardened include setting...
Seashell powder (SSP) is a waste from aquatic life that generally available near the coastal region. Due to its high calcium content, SSP can be utilized as supplementary cementitious binder. used sustainable binder replace ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and significantly reduce carbon footprint. The present study investigates effects of glass (WGP) on fresh, mechanical, microstructure properties high-strength concrete (HSC). in this research was varied, with 5%, 10%, 15% replacement levels....
A lot of energy is released during the cement manufacturing process, and a large amount carbon dioxide (CO2) discharged into environment. Presently, researchers are focusing on reducing CO2 emissions by researching sustainable alternatives to traditional Portland cement-based materials. comparative study material characterization both calcined agro-based waste ash (calcined ash) uncalcined (uncalcined its utilization as binder along with granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) in alkali...
Plastic waste is accumulating at an alarming rate, polluting the environment due to various industrial activities.Plastic also non-biodegradable, making global accumulation deteriorate.Moreover, it observed that using sustainable building materials encourages efficient use of wood industry waste.The study uses polyethylene terephthalate (PET) combined with fibers make non-conventional bricks.In present study, two distinct types bricks were evaluated, one containing 25% weight PET and other...
Abstract Present research involves determining the effects of a proposed novel nano-silica prioritized-steam-treated recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) on microstructural, mechanical, and durability aspects incorporated with waste ceramic powder (WCP). The study revealed that 3% induction 3-h steam treatment for 50% adhered mortar bonded RCA performed optimally. physical characterization treated showed improvement compared to untreated RCA, which was confirmed by microstructure indicating...
The task of turning agricultural waste into practical construction and building materials has been placed before civil engineers. Coffee husk is produced in vast amounts due to the global commerce coffee beans, which are incinerated ash when used as fuel, producing (CHA). Even though many researchers have worked on utilization CHA concrete, they partial cement replacement but not a aggregates. experimental study performance concrete fine aggregate replaced partially with represented this...
Abstract Bricks are manufactured using clays, which fired at temperatures ranging from 1000 to 1200 °C. Due the lack of quality clay, it is necessary find alternate soils and waste materials for manufacturing bricks. The use agricultural, aqua-cultural, industrial wastes in construction bricks leads low-carbon material. This addresses problem agro-aqua-industrial disposal. present study focuses on utilization biomass (BM) slaked seashell powder (SSP) compressed soil made with locally...
Present investigation examines the effects of concrete and steel tube diameter, thickness, L/D ratio (Length to Diameter ratio) on strength interfacial connection in Concrete-Filled Galvanized Steel Tubes (CFGST).By using three levels variables conduct experiments, Taguchi's technique is used study shorten experimentation procedure.In beginning, Taguchi was frame L9 array, nine circular CFGSTs were tested gauge bonding strength.A total 81 samples evaluated determine correctness a linear...

In recent years, genetic algorithm search procedure has been used to locate the critical slip surface of homogeneous slopes. It found that is a robust technique which often gives global solution. present study, non-homogeneous slope in conjunction with stability analysis method developed by Janbu (1973) for generalized surface. The results obtained from study have compared those available literature [Greco (1996) and Zolfaghari et al. (2005)]. effect various parameters (population size,...
