Sulphate effect on the early age strength and self-desiccation of cemented paste backfill

TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study on the sulphate effect on the early age (1, 3, 7 and 28 days) strength and self-desiccation of cemented paste backfill (CPB) was conducted.

The modification effects of a nano-silica slurry on microstructure, strength, and strain development of recycled aggregate concrete applied in an enlarged structural test

TL;DR: In this paper, the modification effects of a nano-silica slurry on properties of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) were experimentally studied, and the nanoindentation tests proved that the nano-silicon slurry enhanced the new interface transition zone between the old and new mortars in RAC, and surface-strengthened the old mortar, while the old ITZ between old aggregate was not strengthened.

Influence of curing regime and steel fibres on the mechanical properties of UHPC

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of accelerated curing and steel fibre volume on ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is the focus of the study. And the results show that heat-cured samples have higher mechanical properties than those undergoing the other curing techniques.

Triaxial strength and failure criterion of plain high-strength and high-performance concrete before and after high temperatures

TL;DR: In this paper, a triaxial test was performed on plain high-strength and high-performace concrete (HSHPC) at all kinds of stress ratios after exposure to normal and high temperatures of 20, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 °C.
