Abstract

The disposal of Iron ore tailings Powder (IP) is the primary concern for numerous steel industries. Similarly, natural zeolite, a significant by-product of volcanic eruptions, pollutes the environment to an extreme degree. This study investigates and implements the extensive use of IP and natural zeolite as admixtures in M20-grade concrete in order to address the challenges posed by IP and zeolite. By varying the admixture percentage, three distinct mix ratios were formed. First, sand was replaced by iron at concentrations of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. Second, cement was replaced by zeolite at 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. In the final mixture, both sand and cement were substituted with iron ore powder and zeolite, respectively, at 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. Conplast SP 430, a water-reducing admixture, was used in all of the mixtures at 1% by weight of cement. The mechanical properties of concrete, including compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength, were studied. To evaluate the long-term properties of admixture-modified concrete, durability tests such as permeability tests, water absorption tests, rapid chloride attack tests, acid attack tests, and sulphate attack tests were conducted. In addition, slump cone tests and thermal conductivity tests were conducted on all the mix combinations to determine the changes in workability and thermal conductivity coefficient. The test results demonstrated that a mix containing 10% zeolite replaced with cement and 10% iron ore tailing powder replaced with sand has the highest performance in terms of strength and durability characteristics. The study also constructs a comparable cost estimate to ensure that its actual implementation is feasible. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-08 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Extensive research has been conducted to address the issue of the reduced efficiency of solar photovoltaic (PV) cells at high temperatures. To address this problem, a hybrid cooling system has been developed. This system uses a thermal collector to convert waste heat into reusable heat. Selecting the best configuration and operational parameters for the collector is crucial for maximizing system performance. To achieve this, we conducted computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling using ANSYS. Various factors affecting the cooling of PV solar cells were analyzed, including the collector design, mass flow rate, and concentration of the Al2O3 nanofluids. Results showed that the 12S finned thermal collector system exhibits the lowest temperature for PV solar cells, at approximately 29.654 oC. The electrical efficiency of PV solar cells is influenced by the concentration of Al2O3 nanofluids. We found that the 12S finned collector system with 1% water/Al2O3 nanofluid achieved the highest efficiency (approximately 11.749%) at a flow rate of 0.09 kg/s. The addition of finned collectors affects efficiency and variations in fluid mass flow rates, and there is no relation between the connector type and different Al2O3nanofluid concentrations. In other words, the cooling system can be optimized to enhance the efficiency of the PV solar cells under high-temperature conditions. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-03 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The strengthening of masonry structures is of paramount importance due to their inherent lack of tensile elements, rendering them susceptible to tensile stresses induced by horizontal loads and the resultant substantial damage. Consequently, this study aims to develop a reinforcement system for the strengthening of historical masonry structures by using mortars devoid of cement and modern pozzolan. Experiments were conducted on masonry walls unreinforced and reinforced by a one-sided Khorasan mortar with steel mesh. Initially, six masonry brick walls constructed using Khorasan lime mortar were prepared. Subsequently, after a waiting period of six months, Khorasan plaster mortar, reinforced with steel mesh, was applied to three masonry walls on one side. Following an 18-month waiting period, all samples were subjected to testing in an experimental setup designed and manufactured for this purpose. The wall reinforcement resulted in a significant increase, with the average peak load by 215.73%, and the average displacement by 48.82%. The experimental shear force on unreinforced walls was found to be 41.23% lower than Eurocode-6 and 1.41% lower than TBDY-2018. In the case of one-sided reinforced walls, the experimental shear force was 9.94% lower than Eurocode-6 and 6.16% lower than TBDY-2018. This form of strengthening not only obviates the use of potentially damaging cement in historical buildings but also extends the lifespan of the reinforced structures. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-019 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Moisture damage and bond loss are major factors in pavement degradation, often stemming from excessive moisture accumulation due to weather events. Water infiltrates the gap between asphalt binder and aggregate, weakening the asphalt bond. Rigden Void (RV) has emerged as a crucial parameter in assessing the susceptibility of asphalt mastic-aggregate systems to moisture-induced damage. However, numerous waste natural fillers have been researched as potential aggregate filler replacements, yet their role in moisture damage remains unexplored. Therefore, this study aimed to understand how different fillers, including waste natural materials like coconut peat and bagasse, affect asphalt mixture performance and moisture damage. Results showed that Rigden Voids were positively correlated with pore size and negatively correlated with surface area. Larger pores contributed to higher Rigden Voids, while greater surface areas led to lower values. Limestone had the highest Rigden Void percentage due to its larger pore size and lower surface area. The research also explored contact parameters between fillers and asphalt, revealing varying interactions based on filler and asphalt types. Moisture damage testing demonstrated that all mixtures, both dense and porous, displayed good resistance to moisture damage. The correlation analysis between Rigden Voids and moisture damage revealed varying degrees of influence, dependent on asphalt type and aggregate gradation. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-014 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

RC frames with unreinforced masonry infill walls are the most common type of building. Unreinforced masonry walls are often not considered by engineers in the design process, although walls and frames interact during strong ground motion, leading to structural responses deviating radically from what is expected in the design. Under lateral load, reinforced concrete confining members (frames) act in tension or compression, depending on the direction of the lateral seismic pressures. Meanwhile, masonry walls act as diagonal struts prone to compression. This research aims to develop the effect of masonry infills and their distribution on the value of the resulting response modification factor. For this purpose, a parametric study was performed on five, seven, and ten-story' buildings modeled as bare and infilled frames. Infill ratio, panel aspect ratio, unidirectional eccentricity, and bidirectional eccentricities were the parameters investigated. Each proposed model's resulting response modification factor was compared to the value cited in different international codes. It was concluded that this value differs depending on several parameters and cannot be constant for a certain structural system. The novelty of this research is the deduction of a general equation to calculate the response modification factor as a function of the percentage of infills and the eccentricity, while presenting two different methods to calculate it. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-09 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Aging reinforced concrete (RC) building structures typically experience more severe damage and are prone to collapse during earthquakes, constituting a primary factor in casualties and direct economic losses. To enhance the seismic performance of these old structures, this paper proposes a seismic risk assessment and a micro-concrete restoration method. It applies the process to an existing three-story reinforced concrete structure. A practical framework for mitigating structural vulnerabilities in seismic-prone regions was proposed. Then an as-built survey was conducted to create as-built architectural and structural drawings. Concrete core tests, ferroscans, and rebar tests were also performed. Based on field surveys and test data, nonlinear static and dynamic analyses have been used to evaluate structural safety. Concrete column jacketing was used to strengthen weak existing columns with micro-concrete. In assessing the structural response of retrofitted buildings, a comparison was made to their initial state. The comparison shows that applying concrete column jacketing with micro concrete can reduce other structural elements' demand capacity ratio (DCR), minimize maximum displacements, and enhance overall stiffness. The results indicate that the proposed method effectively evaluates the seismic risk of aging structures and enhances seismic resilience in existing buildings. Moreover, the application to the actual structure demonstrates that micro-concrete is highly durable and compatible with parent-concrete. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-04 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The objective of this review article is to analyze published data encompassing compressive strength, tensile strength, elastic modulus, and flexural strength, as well as the utilization of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and x-ray diffraction (XRD) for Ultra High-Performance Geopolymer Concrete (UHP-GC), with the focus of establishing the current research trends regarding its mechanical, microstructural, and chemical characteristics. After a critical evaluation of the published data from the literature findings, it became evident that UHP-GC can attain a remarkably high level of engineering performance. In UHP-GC, the optimum percentage of silica fume as a slag partial replacement to achieve high compression, tensile, and elastic modulus were traced to be 25, 30, and 35%, respectively. The optimum ratio of sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide molarity for UHP-GC were identified to be 3.5 and 16, respectively. All in all, the review provides a thorough understanding of the review gap and distinct functions of different raw materials in decreasing porosity and enhancing the formation of geopolymeric gels that not only bond but also strengthen UHP-GC. UHP-GC stands as an energy-saving material in concrete technology, poised to forge a path towards a sustainable future for the building sector. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-020 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The dapped end beam members have a special end with low depth at the support area, which results in a weak area against shear stresses. Classical structural analysis doesn’t capture the precise steel reinforcement interaction at the dapped zone area. The main objectives of this study are to investigate the strength of the dapped end area and to analyze stresses in the steel reinforcement to evaluate the shear failure mechanism at the re-entrant corner. The experimental tests conducted on RC beam samples, in addition to the numerical simulation of these samples by a finite element program, have been compared with a mathematical model. The experimental program highlighted the strains in the steel reinforcement in the dapped region to calculate the magnitude of the stresses in the steel reinforcement. In the experimental program, six dapped beams were fabricated with a length of 3 m, a width of 150 mm, and a depth of 300 mm. The notched end has a 150-mm depth and 150-mm height. These beams were loaded by a concentrated load near support to investigate the shear strength capacity. From the results for steel reinforcement strain, it is found that hanger and horizontal steel reinforcements interact to provide dapped end shear strength. The study proposes a new approach to computing shear strength capacity at the re-entrant corner by adding the contributions of the horizontal and hanger steel reinforcement using an appropriate proportion strain factor. This method revealed greater carrying capacity for the dapped end beam compared with other common structural methods. The results of the numerical analysis were done by the ABAQUS finite element program, showing the same behavior as the experimental work. This study proved the common contribution of hanger and horizontal re-entrant corner steel reinforcement and proposed a new formula to determine the updated nominal shear strength. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-015 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The resilience of underground tunnels has gained paramount importance recently, driven by the need to ensure the safety and functionality of critical transportation and infrastructure systems during seismic events. Underground tunnels are prone to severe damage when the soil condition is poor and located in a high seismic zone. While the behavior of individual tunnels has been extensively studied, the concept of multiple tunnels combined into a large tunnel complex is relatively new, with limited available research focusing on rectangular-shaped tunnel complexes and requiring a more detailed examination. This study parametrically analyzes two novel and unconventional structures in soft soil, i.e., twin and triple tunnel complexes resulting from the combination of closely spaced circular twin and triple individual tunnels. Seismic records from Coyote (US, 1979), Kobe (Japan, 1995), and Kocaeli (Turkey, 1999) have been used to determine the produced surface displacements, tunnel distortions, lateral stresses on the tunnel structures, and the induced seismic forces, including thrusts, shear forces, and bending moments. The results are then compared with the conventional rectangular-shaped tunnel complex, which is also analyzed under the same conditions. The comparison shows that the twin and triple tunnel complexes are comparatively better seismic performers than the conventional rectangular tunnel complex, with reduced ground displacements produced, lesser incurred structural distortions, experienced lateral stresses, and induced seismic forces. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-01 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Many parameters can be influenced by speed flow, like form resistance and speed flow. Form obstacles influence structure turbulent flowing water, so that can raise potency change speed and pattern flow around the structure building. This study considers the tilted corner prisoner structure triangle and incoming water flow to influence the pattern and speed flow that occur after the genre through the obstacle triangle using IRic simulation. IRIC is a simulation platform that supports numeric and various breaker computing problems in water science and engineering. The variations of the corner prisoner plate triangle used in this study are 30°, 45°, and 60°. The transverse channel is blocked with a ratio of β = 1/10, and upstream-downstream boundary conditions are open. Results show what will happen in the genre critical moment pass structure. Because the change is significant, Froude's number. Observations that took place showed that speed flow on each slope was stable before the pass structure and was not stable after the pass structure. Whirlpools occur on a45° slope, so the speed flow that occurs will increase significantly. On an incline of60°, it will have the largest Froude number, which is caused by the depth (D)created by the 60°angle being higher in comparison with another slope. For an incline of30°, show speed, more flow, and a constant flow with a bigger Froude number. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2023-09-12-012 Full Text: PDF
