The aim of this work is to promote the utilization of aeolian sand for concrete production. The
workability and mechanical property of aeolian sand concrete (ASC) is studied. The effect …

Desertification stands as a major global issue, while the scarcity of renewable energy
sources continues to be a growing concern. To address these challenges, the use of desert …

Aeolian sand is abundant and is widely distributed in western China and thus can reduce
the project cost, alleviate the consumption of river sand resources, as well as protect the …

To promote more construction applications of desert sand (DS), this study provides a method
to design and optimize the mix proportion of desert sand concrete (DSC) based on a …

Steel fiber reinforced cementitious composites (SFRCC) have emerged as one of the most
efficient techniques to improve the flexural capacity and ductility performance of concrete …

Massive infrastructure constructions have resulted in scarcity of river sand resources.
Previous studies and applications proved dune sand can partially replace river sand used in …

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) also uses a wide variety of resources, which makes it
unsustainable. Currently, a lot of experts are concentrating on using valuable industrial or …
