Book excerpt: There is a widespread perception in the U.S. that a concrete block pavement (CBP) is an untried pavement alternative. However, each year more of these pavements are being installed. The available literature concerning this type of pavement is limited in the U.S. as most research papers are published elsewhere. This report examines CBP's from several perspectives in order to provide an overview of this alternative pavement technology. First, the CBP system is described. The importance of using the proper bedding sand gradations is stressed and the phenomenon of lock-up, or interlock, is explained. The various design methods for CBP's are also presented. Here, the concept of equivalency factors is discussed. Next, the structural performance of several CBP projects varying from 1 to 10 years are reviewed. Finally, the range of, CBP costs in the Puget Sound area are provided, and a review of those prices paid by WSDOT for asphaltic concrete and Portland cement concrete is made to determine cost competitiveness with a CBP.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like its predecessors, this fourth edition of The Green Guide to Specification provides designers and specifiers with easy-to-use guidance on how to make the best environmental choices when selecting construction materials and components. It is more comprehensive than its predecessors; it contains more than 1200 specifications used in six types of building: • Commercial buildings, such as offices • Educational buildings, such as schools and universities • Healthcare buildings, such as hospitals • Retail • Residential • Industrial. The principal building elements covered in this edition of The Green Guide to Specification include: • Floors • Roofs • Walls • Windows • Insulation • Landscaping. The performance of each specification is measured against a range of environmental impacts, including: • climate change • toxicity • fossil fuel and ozone depletion • levels of emissions and pollutants • mineral and water extraction. The Green Guide to Specification provides robust information to assist decision-making by translating numerical life-cycle assessment data into a simple A+ to E scale of environmental ratings, enabling specifiers to make meaningful comparisons between materials and components. The Green Guide to Specification is an essential tool for architects, surveyors, building managers and property owners seeking to reduce the environmental impact of their buildings by informed and responsible selection of construction materials and components.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Chemistry - Materials Chemistry, course: Chemistry, language: English, abstract: The use of waste plastics in concrete pavement block is a partial solution to the environmental and ecological challenges associated with the use of plastics. The aim of this research is to reduce environmental pollution by using waste PET bottles to produce pavement blocks. In this study, Voltic bottles were first used to replace cement in the production of pavement blocks. The polymeric material was first shredded and melted in an aluminum container at a temperature range of 250 C - 260 C and the quarry dust and sand were added in their respective ratios. In another set of studies, the waste Voltic bottles were used as a partial replacement for quarry dust in the manufacturing of pavement blocks. The cleaned waste plastics bottles were first cut into flakes and then incorporated into the concrete mixture. Test conducted involved the effect of sulphuric acid on the weight of pavement, its water absorption and compressive strength. In the first studies, when PET bottles were used to replace cement, the results obtained had the compressive strength almost the same as that of the control sample which contain no plastic. The percentage water absorbed was less and it also had good resistance for acid. In the second studies when PET was used to replace quarry dust partially, the compressive strength was a little bit lower than the control. Its water absorption was less and it also had good resistance to acid. From the above findings, PET pavement blocks have a good strength and can therefore be used for any construction work."
