Abstract Alkali-Silica Reaction (ASR), as a harmful internal reaction in concrete, produces
deleterious gel, which occurs due to the reaction between the reactive silica in the …

The utilisation of biochar in concrete has attracted considerable attention due to its potential
in enhancing the properties and sustainability of this construction material. This in-depth …

This study presents the particle size distribution of aggregate effects on the mechanical and
structural properties of cemented rockfill. The uniaxial compression tests with acoustic …

Mechanical properties of concrete are highly dependent on its components. Consequently, a
comprehensive understanding of the effects of aggregate and interfacial transition zone on …

It is of great significance to study the material properties of cemented waste rock backfill
(CWRB) for preventing mining damages, solving environmental problems and ensuring …

Mechanical properties of concretes highly depend on aggregate inclusions. In-depth
understandings of concrete fracture mechanisms and how aggregates influence the …

In China, cemented paste backfill (CPB) is a common treatment method after the exploitation
of basic energy. The homogeneity of slurry influences the performance of CPB. However, the …

The use of gangue, cementitious materials, and water mixed to make cemented gangue
backfill material (CGBM) can achieve solid waste recycling while reducing environmental …

This paper examines the effects of size range, distribution and content of reactive aggregate
on concrete expansion and deterioration due to Alkali–Silica Reaction (ASR). The ASR …

Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) and expansion induced are one of the major concerns over
durability of concrete structures. It causes an increase in internal stresses and hence …
