Foamed concrete is special not only in terms of its unique properties, but also challenging compositional mixture design, which necessitates multiple experimental trials before obtaining the desired property like compressive strength. Regardless design challenges, artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have shown to be useful reliably estimating properties based on optimized proportions. This study proposes AI-based models predict strength foamed concrete. Three novel AI approaches, namely...
The use of synthetic fiber and natural for concrete production has been continuously investigated. Most the materials have become popular their higher flexibility, durability, strength. However, current study explores engineering properties cement reinforced with nylon jute fibers together. Varying proportions lengths were utilized in mixture. Hence, combined effects on workability, density, water absorption, compressive, tensile, flexural strength, drying shrinkage Results showed that 1%...
Cementitious and recycled materials that have the potential to improve various properties of concrete attracted attention many researchers recently. Different types cementitious seem possess certain unique change cement concrete. This experimental study aims investigate impact ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) corn cob ash (CCA) as a partial replacement material for Portland (PC) fine aggregate (FA), respectively, on fresh hardened properties, well embodied carbon The mix was...
With the increased use of engineered cementitious composite (ECC) in closed environments and as a structural material, it is necessary to fully understand its performance under elevated temperatures. This research investigates response ECC ambient temperatures addresses issue explosive spalling by incorporating graphene oxide (GO) crumb rubber (CR). Twenty GO-modified rubberized mixes were designed using Response surface methodology (RSM), considering GO content, concentration for CR...
Square hollow sections (SHS) have been extensively utilised for welded steel beam-column connections in various structural applications. The performance of these can degrade over time due to the degradation material, fatigue and fabrication as well construction errors, which lead failure. Reinforcing i.e., strengthening SHS play an important role enhancing safety a wide range new existing structures. current study reports detailed parametric using recently developed numerical model...
Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) has advantageous characteristics such as lightweight, high strength, corrosion and fatigue resistance, low creep, damping, etc. It is suitable to be used in bridge structures cables, which can effectively solve the problems of easy rusting, heavyweight, tensile performance steel cables. This paper firstly illustrates properties CFRP lamella compared with rod terms cable anchoring then investigates wedge-shaped clamp anchorage for by finite element...
Different failure modes should be carefully analyzed to effectively design the pipe-in-pipe (PIP) repair systems rehabilitate natural gas and water pipelines in place service. This study characterizes through analytical numerical modelling of different performance objectives have a comprehensive understanding overall behavior PIP with range thicknesses elastic moduli. It focused on assessing structural under load actions including vibration/fatigue due traffic loads, lateral deformation,...
Conventional pressure-type anchoring systems face challenges such as difficulty in recovery, low recovery efficiency, and insufficient durability over long-term use. Although the single-use cost of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) strand anchors is higher than that conventional steel strands, reuse can significantly reduce costs. Therefore, this study aims to investigate bonded method CFRP proposes an innovative thermoplastic prestressed design combines both strength recoverability...
