Book Synopsis High-performance/high-strength Lightweight Concrete for Bridge Girders and Decks by : Thomas E. Cousins
Download or read book High-performance/high-strength Lightweight Concrete for Bridge Girders and Decks written by Thomas E. Cousins and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2013 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 733: High-Performance/High-Strength Lightweight Concrete for Bridge Girders and Decks presents proposed changes to the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials' Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) bridge design and construction specifications to address the use of lightweight concrete in bridge girders and decks. The proposed specifications are designed to help highway agencies evaluate between comparable designs of lightweight and normal weight concrete bridge elements so that an agency's ultimate selection will yield the greatest economic benefit. The attachments contained in the research agency's final report provide elaborations and detail on several aspects of the research. Attachments A and B provide proposed changes to AASHTO LRFD bridge design and bridge construction specifications, respectively; these are included in the print and PDF version of the report. Attachments C through R are available for download below. Attachments C, D, and E contain a detailed literature review, survey results, and a literature summary and the approved work plan, respectively. Attachment C; Attachment D ; Attachment E; Attachments F through M provide details of the experimental program that were not able to be included in the body of this report. Attachment F; Attachment G; Attachment H; Attachment I; Attachment J; Attachment K; Attachment L; Attachment M. Attachments N through Q present design examples of bridges containing lightweight concrete and details of the parametric study. Attachment N; Attachment O; Attachment P; Attachment Q. Attachment R is a detailed reference list."--Publication information.

Book excerpt: Concrete with a unit weight between that of traditional light-weight concrete (LWC) and normal weight concrete (NWC) is not covered in the American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Bridge Design Specifications. This research program includes a significant number of bond strength tests on this type of concrete. The results from this research project are included in a database that covers a broader range of unit weights in order to determine trends for LWC as a function of unit weight. New design expressions for the development length of mild steel in tension are proposed for LWC that include a modification factor for LWC based on unit weight.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of the increasing use and demand for lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC), there is still a lack of adequate explanations to understand the mechanisms responsible for the strength and durability properties of LWAC. This book is written to give an overall picture of LWAC, from the historical background, aggregate production, proportioning and production of concrete, to applications in structures. Physical properties and chemical durability are described in detail. The physical properties include density, strength, shrinkage, and elasticity. Chemical durability includes resistance to acids, chloride ingress, carbonation, and freeze-thaw resistance. Fire resistance is also included, which is seldom considered, but is a very important aspect of the safety of the structure. Microstructure development and its relation to the durability properties of LWAC generally are not highlighted in the literature. The development of bonds, the microstructure with different binder systems, and different types of lightweight aggregates are explained. They show how lightweight aggregate concrete differs from normal weight concrete. The chapters on chloride ingress and freeze-thaw resistance are detailed because of the use of LWAC in offshore construction. The economical aspects of using LWAC are also reviewed. Emphasis is placed on the fact that although the cost of LWAC is high, the total cost of construction has to be considered, including the cost of transport, reinforcement, etc. When these are considered then LWAC becomes cheaper and attractive. The life cycle cost of the concrete is another consideration for calculating long-term savings on maintenance costs.

Download or read book Construction Productivity Advancement Research (CPAR) Program. Development of High-Performance Lightweight Concrete Masonry Units written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masonry construction continues to predominate in U.S. military construction and other sectors, but there has been little improvement in masonry structural technology for several decades. Without improvements in materials and productivity, the cost of masonry construction will significantly increase. To help keep masonry construction affordable, the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratories (USACERL) initiated a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with the University of Nebraska Center for Infrastructure Research to develop a lightweight high-strength concrete masonry unit (CMU). The objective of this research was to merge high-strength concrete and lightweight concrete technologies to produce a high-performance lightweight CMU up to 50 percent lighter than normal-weight units while maintaining or improving structural characteristics. The work produced a new type of high-strength lightweight CMU that can be manufactured using industry-standard equipment and meets or exceeds all performance-based requirements for block masonry. Using expanded shale aggregates and an optimized unit shape as the primary innovative components, the high-performance lightweight CMUs weigh about 8.6 kg and have average net compressive strength of 4000 lb/in. 2 The minimum void gradation of the expanded shale was modified to provide high strength, good durability, and a smooth, uniform texture. Details on mix design and optimized block shape are provided.
Book Synopsis Building with Infra-lightweight Concrete by : Claudia Lösch
Download or read book Building with Infra-lightweight Concrete written by Claudia Lösch and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2020-02-10 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infra-lightweight concrete combines the structural and thermal insulation functions of the building envelope in one monolithic material, thus providing new design options. The handbook is a practical guide to building with this new type of material. The architects and structural engineers of the interdisciplinary team of authors combine their findings from many years of research, including from a project in which the team investigated the architectural and structural potential of infra-lightweight concrete in multi-story residential buildings. In addition to essential information on designing with the material, including construction details, and an overview of the building physics properties, practical advice on building details is provided in the form of sizing tables and numerous details from various projects.
