The search for an alternative to cement has become an environmental and strategic necessity to reduce the effects of global warming and preserve the energy capacity of energy-importing and energy-exporting countries alike. Geopolymer materials are classified as green materials and may be the alternative solution proposed at the present time due to their advantages. The results of research and studies have shown that these geopolymer materials possess superior mechanical and physical properties, including high early strength, good chemical resistance, low shrinkage, and good thermal resistance. The rise in temperatures in recent years and the global warming scenario has led to an increase in demand for heat-insulating materials, especially in the construction sector. This review includes, based on previous research, previous knowledge of more about the basics of these geopolymer materials the raw materials that go into preparing these compounds and the factors affecting their properties. The good thermal performance of these compounds is considered important and vital to exploit in the production of efficient insulating materials, and it may be a sustainable solution in re-exploiting mineral waste in order to preserve natural resources

A simplified computational procedure for determining the optimal design of special moment resisting steel connections is proposed. The connection, recently patented by the authors, is the so-called Limited Resistance Plastic Device (LRPD); it appertains to the class of the Reduced Beam Sections (RBS) which mainly constitute appropriate beam portions devoted to receiving plastic deformations, but it also possesses additional and innovative features related with its resistance and stiffness. The optimal design of the LRPD usually requires the solution of a strongly nonlinear minimum volume problem. On the grounds of the known expected LRPD mechanical features, a simplified computational procedure is defined. Reference will be made to the device applied to I-shaped steel beam elements subjected to a plane force system. Some numerical applications are presented, regarding the comparison between the results obtained by means of the proposed simplified strategy and those obtained by the solution to the optimal design problem. Furthermore, a larger application devoted to a plane frame proves the reliability of the devices as receptors of plastic deformations.

Comprehending the mechanical characteristics of concrete is paramount for its efficient deployment in construction. This investigation endeavors to predict these properties utilizing equivalent mortar, furthering previous inquiries on the topic. Literature suggests a viable approach to create concrete through a method employing both natural and crushed aggregates. This technique considers the corresponding mortar, amalgamated with crushed (SC) and dune sand (SD), as a novel mortar. Implementing this method could curtail the consumption of natural resources while conserving the mechanical attributes in both fresh (flow) and hardened states (strength and durability). This approach aims to anticipate the mechanical performance of concretes formulated from equivalent mortar data. Five mixtures were constituted to discern the optimal blend from a binary amalgamation of crushed coarse aggregates (30% fraction 3/8 and 70% fraction of 8/15) sized 3.8mm and 8.15mm, alongside five mixed sand percentages: (30% SC+70% SD), (40% SC+60% SD), (50% SC+50% SD), (60% SC+40% SD), and (70% SC+30% SD). The application of super plasticizer was investigated, and the compressive strength function of coarse aggregate was ascertained at intervals of 7, 14, and 28 days. The mechanical strength was determined at the 28-day mark. The empirical study indicates that density attains its zenith when a 40% mortar is incorporated into the concrete matrix. Conversely, with a 50% SC composition within the mixed sand, the mechanical strengths achieve acceptable values with moderate CS dosages. Specification tests reveal that incorporating 50% to 70% mortar into the concrete matrix can yield highquality concrete

This study examines the mechanical effects of the addition of transparent glass in the form of waste glass powder on the mechanical properties of concrete in aggressive environments.Glass is used as an additive after conversion to fine powder and mixed with cement at 0% , 5% and 10% For the construction of concrete with additives and then poured into molds. And then treated in fresh fresh water, salt solution where the salt is 5% sodium chloride and finally in MgSO4 solution at 5% concentration for 7, 14 and 28 days, then mechanical tests are performed when the test used in this research is compressive strength and porosity. It was observed that there were differences in compressive strength when immersed in different solvents. Samples immersed in water have higher resistance than those immersed in sodium chloride MgSO4 solution and increase with immersion time. The results show that the addition of glass powder improves the flow of concrete, also it further consolidates the cementitious matrix which makes it difficult for aggressive compounds to penetrate into the concrete.

This paper investigated the effects of brick dust and metal fiber on the mechanical and physical properties of cement mortars exposed to high temperatures experimentally and statistically. For this purpose, the mixes containing marble dust (0%, 5%, and 10% by volume) and metal fiber (0 kg/m 3 , 1 kg/m, 2 kg/m 3 , 5 kg/m 3 ) were prepared. The cement mortars' compressive strength and porosity value were determined after exposure to high temperatures (300, 500, and 700 C). The percentage of brick dust, amount of metal fiber, and degree of temperature were changed to explore their effects on specimens' compressive strength and porosity values. Finally, experimental findings were compared with statistical results, and a good agreement between them was achieved.

Achieving environmentally friendly compounds with high mechanical resistance, lower density, and high thermal resistance is a topic of research for most of those interested in this field. Geopolymers are threedimensional amorphous materials made of aluminosilicates in a normal environment or at high temperatures through alkaline activation of aluminosilicate materials. This activation, along with Add a chemical foaming agent (aluminum powder, hydrogen peroxide, sodium oleate...) led to the synthesis of inorganic foam. Geopolymer foams are high temperature resistant materials characterized by mechanical and chemical stability and low post-foaming shrinkage. Pore size is directly related to changing the concentration of the foaming agent, and studies have shown that, by tracking CT images, up to 24% open porosity can be achieved without significantly affecting other properties. addition to geopolymers enjoying these advantages, we find some studies interested in obtaining other advantages, including adding another factor that (PCM).Thermal properties of geopolymer concrete (GPC) are enhanced by adding phase change material (PCM) capsules. Thermal and structural tests were conducted to investigate the effects of capsules on the properties of produced GPC. The produced thermally enhanced GPC can reduce heat transmission to indoors in the hot climates and its compressive strength is acceptable for nonloadbearing wall components.

Sludge valorization, also called sludge management, is an important field in the treatment of wastewater and solid waste worldwide. Sludge is the solid byproduct generated during the treatment of wastewater in wastewater treatment plants. They often contain organic matter, mineral elements and other contaminants, making them potentially harmful to the environment if not properly managed. However, there are many ways to recover sludge and use it beneficially rather than simply disposing of it. The areas of sludge recovery are: Composting, Agricultural use, Energy production, Biogas production and Production of construction materials. Using sludge to make bricks has many environmental benefits, including reducing waste, reducing demand for natural resources, decreasing greenhouse gas emissions, and creating sustainable building products. However, it is essential to comply with local and national environmental regulations and implement strict quality controls to ensure the safety and quality of bricks made from sludge.

The use of sewage sludge ash, also known as sewage sludge incineration ash (SSIA), as a construction material has gained attention in recent years. This study aims to investigate the effect of SSIA on the durability of equivalent mortar exposed to high temperatures. The exposure of mortar containing SSIA to high temperatures can have various effects on its durability. Some of the potential effects include a reduction in mechanical strength, degradation of the microstructure, weight loss, and the formation of new mineral phases. However, these effects can vary depending on the composition of the SSIA and other components of the mortar, as well as the specific conditions of high-temperature exposure. Further experimental studies are needed to provide more accurate evaluations of the impact of SSIA on the durability of equivalent mortar exposed to high temperatures.

Geopolymers belong to the aluminosilicate family, essentially composed of a raw material that may be natural, a co-product or an industrial by-product such as blast-furnace slag, fly ash and metakaolin, or another material that essentially contains silica (SiO2) and alumina (Al2O3) and an alkaline solution. The use of geopolymers as cementitious materials is currently growing due to their excellent properties and efficiencies, such as low CO2 emission, high compressive strength, low permeability, enhanced durability, thermal resistance and excellent stability in acidic and alkaline environments. Geopolymers are obtained by alkaline activation, often based on sodium or potassium silicate. Many studies have shown that aluminosilicate materials are activated depending on the type of material used .Alkali-activated mortars were found to have higher compressive strength than cement mortars. Alkali-activated materials represent one of the alternatives available that could replace PC in terms of economy, ecology, mechanical performance and durability. Heat treatment has an influence on the reactivity of materials, and studies show that mortars based on uncalcined (raw) materials give lower strengths than control mortars based on 100% cement. Calcination changes the structure of the material to become amorphous, which improves the compressive strength of mortars, so thermal analysis has a positive influence on the compressive strength of mortars. The mechanical activation of materials containing a percentage of silica and/or alumina consists in increasing grain fineness (specific surface area) through advanced grinding. Heat treatment of raw materials shows significant effects on the mechanical behavior of synthesis product were this later enhance mechanical strength, But it considering more expensive then mechanical activation which more economical. However chemical activation has an interesting effect on the development of compressive strength, but is expensive and difficult to process in an aggressive environment.

Geopolymerization is the chemical process that brings together all the reactions transforming solid rich in silica (Si) and alumina (Al), such as fly ash, blast furnace slag or clay, an alkaline activator, such as sodium hydroxide (NaOh) or potassium hydroxide (Koh), to form an alkaline solution, under different experimental conditions, into aluminosilicate gel. This chemical reaction, called polymerization, enables the elements present in the raw materials to bind together to form a solid three-dimensional network, similar to that of Portland cement. This network gives geopolymeric materials high mechanical strength. This is an alternative to traditional methods of manufacturing materials such as Portland cement, which generate significant quantities of greenhouse gases (CO2) during production. The reaction mechanism for geopolymer formation comprises three stages: a dissolution/hydrolysis stage, a restructuring stage and a final polycondensation stage. Several parameters can influence the geopolymerization process, such as the alumino-silicate source (precursor type), particle texture and morphology, particle size and specific surface, alkaline activator type and concentration, water content, the silica content, as well as temperature, which has an effect not only on the reaction rate, but also on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the geopolymers, such as the texture of the final material, mechanical strength, homogeneity, porosity and thermal stability. Experimental studies and tests are often carried out to determine the appropriate temperature parameters for obtaining the desired properties of the geopolymer material.

The combined use of silica fume (SF) and ceramic waste (CW) for the production of mortar is studied. Sand is replaced by 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% of CW while a fixed 5% percentage (% wt of cement) of SF is used. The results show that the best results are obtained by using silica fume and ceramic waste sand with 15% weight of sand and 5% wt of cement. With the addition of sand ceramic waste (SCW), the mortar compressive strength and density increase, while the porosity displays an opposite trend. The experimental analysis is complemented with theoretical considerations on the matrix strength and related improvements in mechanical behavior. It is shown that the agreement between the experimental values and the estimated values is good.

This paper presents an experimental study on the influence of metal fibers on the mechanical behaviour of mortar with glass sand. Four mortar mixtures with glass filler and metals fibers are manufactured. The specimens were prepared with three percentages of glass sand (0%, 5%, 10%) and 1%, 2% by vol of steel fibers. The Air-Entraining Agent (A-E-A) dosages at the ratios of 0.08% of cement weight were used. The mechanical tests were carried out on the specimens such as the compressive strength, the tensile strength and the porosity. The results showed that the tensile and bending properties of all different mixtures with fibers are significantly higher compared to the reference mortars. A remarkable decrease has been observed in water, density and compressive strength of mortar with chemical admixture. Moreover, the using 1% volume fraction of steel fibers and 10% glass sand, flexural strength of mortar was completely improved.

High performance concrete (HPC) has several advantages in building construction that cannot be achieved using conventional concrete in terms of strength durability, resistance to chemical attack, and workability of high performance concrete are high. The introduction of fillers and additives contributed to the improvement of high-performance concrete (HPC), other parameters also influence the performance of these HPCs, coarse aggregate fraction is known to strongly influence both fresh and hardened concrete’s properties. Consequently, selection of both content and particle size distribution for (HPC) mixture is an important issue regarding the predicted performance of concrete. For to make concrete more improvement , the porosity of the granular skeleton as well as the rheology of our HPC, 3/8 fraction of rolled gravel with smooth and rounded surfaces was introduced, in substitution for the crushed gravel of the same fraction , by testing various combinations of fractions 3/8 of rolled gravel and fraction 8/15 of crushed gravel in the present study, and based on previous results obtained the combinations 35,40 and 45% fraction 3/8 of rolled gravel and 65 , 60 and 55% fraction 8/15 of crushed gravel (binary granular system) respectively, gives a minimal porosity . Super plasticizer and four percentages of pozzolan were experimented. Compressive strength function of coarse aggregate was determined at 7, 14 and 28 days. Results have revealed that the mixtures with modified granule size distribution system ,1.5% of superplasticizer and 5% by weight of pozzolan allow an improvement in the compressive strength of 35.1% relative to the control concrete.

The high-temperature mechanical behaviour of a glass and brick waste alkaline to synthesize geopolymer mortar was studied. The mortar in question contained 100% glass powder GWP and 90% of a blend of brick waste GBWP, brick waste BWP and a solid activator (10 mol concentration of NaOH mixed with glass water (Na2SiO3). The material was tested during exposure to high temperatures to establish its density, weight loss, compressive strength, accessible porosity in water, expansion of pastes, XRD and TG-DSC analysis using an innovative methodology to notch the hydrated geopolymers paste specimens after exposed to five maximum temperatures, 100℃, 200℃, 400℃, 600℃ and 800℃ without any imposed load during the heating. The results were found that GBWP gave better values in compressive strength, reaching 38.3 MPa at 100℃ and other proportional values at 400℃, 600℃ respectively compared with GWP. As for the density, the high temperature contributed to its decrease, which caused the presence of high porosity at 800℃. On the other hand, the high temperature helped to improve the mechanical and physical behavior of BWP, where the resistance reached 24.91 MPa at 200℃. In addition, for the microstructure and different particles related to the interactions were identified through the XRD and TG-DSC analysis procedure, in order to know the highest temperatures that allow changing the structure and properties of this type of alternative binders.

Supplementary cementitious materials have been widely used all over the world in ready-mixed mortar due to their economic and environmental benefits; hence, they have drawn much attention in recent years. Whether deriving from industrial waste, agro-waste, or by-products, supplementary cementitious materials can be mixed with blended cement to enhance mortar strength. Supplementary cementitious materials may contain marble, silica fume , glass, ceramic, metakaolin, and brick, to name a few. The utilization of these materials in mortar can partially reduce the consumption of Portland cement, which, in turn, can lessen construction costs, providing materials suppliers, with substantial advantages. Furthermore, despite the drawbacks of their binary blends, the combination of supplementary cementitious materials can lead to many advantages, such as optimized strength, workability, and durability. Unfortunately, these advances have not been fully taken into consideration in state specifications. Hence, by adopting a review approach, this study aimed to provide new insights into the effect of the incorporation of supplementary cementitious materials on the properties of mortar.

Since concrete is a mixture of cement, aggregates and water, it can be used in a wide range of applications. It has excellent durability and availability which are its main advantages. Although concrete is strong in compression, it is relatively weak in tensile load. Over the years, various materials have been used to strengthen concrete to resist tensile stresses. Metal fiber is one such fiber that comes in different sizes and is used today to reinforce concrete

Recycling and recovery of waste are now considered as a solution for the future to protect the environment. The marble processing workshops on the other hand, generate a large amount of waste in the form of powder and small parts. Due to these facts, the aim of this study is to valorize marble waste in the form of powder and crushed aggregates (sand) as additions in cementitious matrix building materials. The characterization of the materials used to formulate mortars based on natural dune sand with marble powder and mortars based on mixed sand (dunes sand and crushed sand) and marble powder was measure. In this sense, several series have been studied, varying the addition rate of the marble powder in order to reduce the porosity of the cement matrix, using crushed marble sand to increase the granular cohesion and using of a reducing water admixture (MEDAPLAST SP40) for more performance mortars. Very appreciable results were observed for a dosage of 15% of marble powder and for the combination of 15% of marble powder with 20% of crushed marble sand. This research recommends recycling 35% of marble waste in the cement matrix that contribute effectively to the preservation of the environment.

As part of protecting the environment from carbon dioxide emissions, all research aims to reduce the use of cement in concrete with cheaper and energy efficient materials. Geopolymer mortar is an environmentally friendly mortar made from industrial solid waste and by-products such as crystalline slag (CS). This research aims to produce a geopolymer mortar from local materials available in Algeria which are not sufficiently valued at present. The aim of this study is to provide geopolymer mortar at high temperatures, operating with a constant hardening temperature of around 60° C. The alkaline activator used in this study was a combination of sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) and 10 M NaOH solution. In addition, crystalline geopolymer mortars (MCS) as the binder material at a curing temperature of 60 °C, ratios of two mixtures of binder were prepared by substituting the sand with 40% CS and 100% CS. For this purpose, the mortar sample with the highest compressive strength was subjected to temperatures of 200, 400, 600 and 800 °C for exposure times of 10 °C per minute and changes in temperature and changes in the physical and mechanical properties was analyzed. As a result of the experiments, the highest mechanicals values were obtained from the mortar samples with a 40% CS content. Following the high temperature tests, 400 °C and 600 °C were determined as critical temperatures for changes in mechanical properties and changes in physical properties, respectively. However, the geopolymer mortars lost around 60% of strength at 800 °C which is the final temperature.

The present study aims primarily to investigate the possibility of assessing the physico-mechanical behavior of concrete incorporating marble waste or marble powder as a partial replacement for cement using destructive and non-destructive testing methods. Indeed, in this work, cement was partially replaced with marble powder at six different substitution levels, i.e. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30% by weight, with 1.5% adjuvant (super plasticizer) for each mixture. The samples prepared were then analyzed. In addition, the physico-mechanical properties, in the fresh and hardened states, water-to-cement ratio, absorption and compressive strengths of the concrete samples were examined as well. Moreover, the compressive strength of concrete was assessed through non-destructive testing methods such as the ultrasonic pulse velocity and rebound hammer. Likewise, the relationship between the ultrasound velocity and compressive strength of concrete were also estimated after 3, 7, 28 and 90 days of curing. The findings of the study indicated that, at early age of curing, the values of the compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity were quite small for all replacement levels, of cement with marble powder, between 15 and 30%. Nevertheless, when the curing period was increased, the compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity of all the samples went up as well. In the end, a linear relationship was observed between the ultrasonic pulse velocity and compressive strength for all substitution levels of cement with marble powder.

This study investigates the effect of the chemical treatment of sawdust on the mechanical and thermal properties of a clay composite reinforced with sawdust in variable mass proportions: 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5%, intended for use as brick in rural houses in desert areas. The sawdust was chemically treated with 5 wt% NaOH and 0.01 wt% KMnO4 solutions. The mechanical test results of the reinforced composite with alkali-treated sawdust show an increase in flexural and compression strength, reaching a maximum value of 0.89 and 4.85 MPa, respectively. However, the thermal test results show a significant decrease in the thermal conductivity of the sawdust-reinforced composite. The best result recorded is that of untreated sawdust, which has a value of 0.37 (W.m−1.K−1) compared to the one reinforced with treated sawdust.

Concrete is widely used as a structural material in civil engineering projects such as tunnels. Taking into account this fact, the behavior of concretes subjected to high temperatures has recently emerged as a major problem for these structures. This trouble concerns both service situations in the case of radioactive waste storage structures and hazardous accidental situations. Where alike cases highlighted by recent fire incidents in tunnels. This work proposes to carry out a series of tests to supplement or consolidate the knowledge already acquired on the high-temperature behavior of concrete, in particular to observe the role played by the cementitious matrix on the evolution of the mechanical properties of concretes with the rise in temperature. The testing program concerned five mixtures, which covered the range of ordinary concretes based on glass powder offering the particularity of having a constant granular skeleton and a volume of paste. destructive (ET) and non-destructive (NDT) testing were carried out at 200 ° C, 400 ° C and 600 ° C on specimens after heating, with the observation of the change in the weight loss of these tested specimens. The experimental results showed a correlation between the evolution of the weight loss and the degree of elevated temperature after exposure. This, revealed the existence of two major zones of behavior of concretes located before and beyond 400 ° C. In the first one, It was noticed an evolution of the compressive strengths, while in the second zone a considerable decrease in mechanical properties was observed.

A very long time ago, alkaline metal compounds were excluded from the mineral components in ordinary Portland cement essentially because of their high solubility: a perfectly reasonable conclusion, in scientifictechnical terms. Alkali-activated materials are recognized as potential alternatives to ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in order to limit CO2 emissions as well as beneficiate several wastes into useful products. Geopolymer mortares produced by activation of alkalis have high flexural and compressive strength. Activator ratio, aggregate properties, water/binder ratio, curing time and curing temperature, binding properties are the factors affecting the mechanical strengths of geopolymers. High temperature is required for rapid reaction in geopolymer concretes produced with binders such as blast furnace slag and metakaolin. Due to its high mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, durability, especially desirable performance under high temperature, wide source of raw materials, and low energy consumption, geopolymers has become an increasingly popular research area in recent years and many researchers have conducted studies on the thermal properties of geopolymers and the mechanical properties at high temperatures. Ground granulated blast furnace slag, commonly known as “slag” is another widely available industrial byproduct and a good candidate for use in metakaolin geopolymers to achieve ambient temperature curing. In most of the studies very high amounts of slag are used in metakaolin -slag geopolymers and significant loss in strength of the above geopolymers is observed after exposure to elevated temperatures. Therefore, based on previous research, this paper reviews current knowledge about the comparison between alkali activated slag and metakaolin and the effects of high temperature on geopolymer mortars, including the general proprieties of slag and metakaolin , resistance mechanics, losses mass and micro structures of mortars subjected to high temperatures.

Abstract: Recently a full factorial design is an experiment allows the investigator to study the effect of each factor on the response variable, as well as the effects of interactions between factors on the response variable. The objective of this study is to identify the significant factors and interactions involved in maximizing compressive strength of geopolymer mortar when brick waste activated is used as cement. In this respect, experimental factors at two levels, which are alkaline activator type (Na2SiO3+ NaOH), curing temperature (40°C - 60°C) and cure duration (7-28 days), are selected as possible applicants affecting the compressive strength.According to the full factorial analysis, at the 60 °C curing temperature level when brick waste activated is added to mortar, the compressive strength will be good enough after 28 days. The physic - mechanical analysis shows an excellent agreement between the measured and the estimated values for both the compressive strength and only slight deviations were noticed for high curing temperature. The use of appropriate values of matrix strength and consideration of the improvement in mechanical behavior allow a good agreement between the experimental values and the estimated values .The results demonstrate that brick waste after activation can be used in construction industry.

A large amount of natural aggregates such as sand and fillers are being consumed in mortar production. At the same time production of solid waste from the demolitions and manufacturing units are also very high. The objective of this study is to identify the significant factors and interactions involved in behavior of mortar with partial replacement of waste ceramic used as alternative sand aggregate and it is compared with controlled mortar. In this respect, experimental factors at two levels, which are sand, are replaced by waste ceramic for various percentages 5%, 10%, 15% , cure duration (7-28 days) and the strength is controlled. According to the full factorial analysis, at the 15% percentage level when waste is added to mortar with sand, the compressive strength will be good enough after 28 days. The results demonstrate that ceramic waste can be used in construction and prove cost effective technique concreting for the future. The physic - mechanical analysis shows an excellent agreement between the measured and the estimated values for both the compressive strength and the porosity and only slight deviations were noticed for high percentage of ceramic content. The use of appropriate values of matrix strength and consideration of the improvement in mechanical behavior allow a good agreement between the experimental values and the estimated values. The results demonstrate that ceramic waste after substitution in the mortar can be used in construction industry and prove cost effective technique concreting for the future.

This study examines the effect‘s additions of aluminum (AL) on the mechanical performance of mortars subjected to cycles of freeze-thaw. The research evaluated the density, compressive strengths and workability properties of mortar mixtures to which aluminum byproduct was added in different proportions (0%, 5% and 7.5 %,) by weight of cement. The effects of fast freeze-thaw cycles on the mechanical properties of aluminum waste mortar materials (MC, M5 and M7.5) are investigated on the basis of the experimental results. The test results indicate a considerable decrease in workability, mechanical resistance density of plain mortar with the addition of AL. The results also show that the strength of mortar with AL can be sufficient for certain applications, where light and low-strength mortar is required. Overall, the results of this study demonstrate the viability of using AL in the production of low strength concrete, where such usage can help toward a more sustainable construction.

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the performance of concrete with and without glass powder (GP) subjected to elevated temperatures. Mechanical and physicochemical properties of concretes were studied at both ambient and high temperatures. One of the major environmental concerns is disposal or recycling of the waste materials. However, a high volume of the industrial production has generated a considerable amount of waste materials which have a number of adverse impacts on the environment. Further, use of glass or by-products in concrete production has advantages for improving some or all of the concrete properties. The economic incentives and environmental benefits in terms of reduced carbon footprint are also the reason for using wastes in concrete. The occurrence of spalling, compressive strength, mass loss, chemical composition, crystalline phase, and thermal analysis of CPG before and after exposure to various temperatures (20, 200, 400, and 600oC) were comprehensively investigated. The results indicated that, the critical temperature range of CPG was between 400oC and 600oC.

The objective of this study is to analyze the effect of the air entrainment on the fresh rheological properties as well as on the compressive mechanical resistances of the mortars. The hardened concrete contains a certain amount of randomly spread air, coming either from a drive during kneading or from the evaporation of the mixing water. The air quantity is in the order of 20 l / m3, ie 2% of the volume. However, the presence of a large volume of air bubbles causes the mechanical resistances to fall in compression. On the other hand, the use of air entrainment could improve the rheological properties of fresh concrete. Experimental studies have been carried out to study the effect of air entrainment on compressive strength, density and ingredients of fresh concrete mix. During all the study, water cement ratio (w/c) was maintained constant at 0.5. The results have shown substantial decreasing in water and mortar density followed with decreasing in compressive strength of mortar. The results of this study has given more promising to use it as a guide for mortar mix design to choose the most appropriate concrete mix design economically.

Homogènes et stables, ils présentent des résistances et une durabilité analogues à celles des bétons traditionnels dont ils se différencient par leurs propriétés à l’état frais. Les bétons sont connus par leurs fragilités en traction. L’introduction de fibres dans une matrice de béton conduit à l’amélioration de nombreuses propriétés. Les effets des fibres sur leur comportement à l’état frais et à l’état durci sont de grande importance pour un plus large usage de ces matériaux. Les objectifs visés par ce sujet est d’évaluer les propriétés rhéologiques et mécaniques d’un béton autoplaçant renforcé par des fibres (fibres métalliques et fibres de verre) avec différentes dimensions (L=2.5etL= 5 cm) et différentes pourcentages des fibres de 0,15%, et 0.3% en volume de béton pour les fibres métalliques et de 0,1%, et 0.15% en volume de béton pour les fibres de verre afin de voir l’influence de la nature et les dimensions de la fibre sur les propriétés du béton autoplaçant fibré à l’état frais et à l’état durci. Les résultats tirés de nos essais expérimentaux montrent qu’à dosage égal les fibres métalliques améliorent les propriétés des BAP à l’état frais et durci et donnent des meilleurs résultats par rapport aux fibres de verre, et la performance du béton autoplaçant avec fibre courte est mieux qu'à fibres longues. Mots clés : Bétons autoplaçant, fibres métalliques, fibres de verre, propriétés mécaniques, rhéologie.

This study examines the effect of the additions of silica fume and super plasticizer on the mechanical performance of high performance concretes at high temperatures. The tested concretes are formulated with 5% silica fume and two dosages of super plasticizers in the ratio of (2%, 2.5%) the weight of cement after having been exposed to four maximum temperatures, 200 °C, 400 °C, 600 °C and 900 °C without any imposed load during the heating. The results obtained show that the mechanical resistance at 28 day increases with the degree of temperature compared to that measured at 20 °C. On the contrary, a clear decrease is observed between 600 °C and 900 °C. However, material composition seems to have great influence on the mechanical strength.

The self-compacting concretes (SCC’s) are characterized by their high fluidity so that they could be placed without any vibration. The effect of fillers addition on the behavior of SCC in fresh and hardened state is of great importance. This incorporation of marble powder aims to preserve the environment and to widen its use in the future in SCC formulation. The present research experimental program examines the effect of the partial substitution of cement with marble powder on the characteristics of self-compacting concrete in fresh and hardened state. Thus, the marble powder (MP) was introduced into the composition of self-compacting concretes at dosages of 10%, 20% and 30%. Three water cement ratios (W/C) of 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6 were maintained for the studied mixtures. The reference one with 100% of cement served as a control concrete mix. Finally, it can be concluded that such valuation of the marble waste could be beneficial for self-compacted concrete formulation.

Résumé: Le béton auto plaçant (BAP) est un béton capable, sous l'unique effet de la pesanteur, de se mettre en place dans les coffrages même les plus complexes et particulièrement encombrés sans nécessiter pour tout autant des moyens de vibration. L'utilisation du la fibre de verre dans la composition du béton autoplaçant (BAP) est un travail qui vise d'une part la sauvegarde de l'environnement en réutilisant les déchets et d'autre part la valorisation des matériaux locaux dans le domaine de la construction, de ce fait, la fibre de verre a été introduite dans la composition des BAP suivant deux teneurs 0.1%, 0.15%. Les matériaux testés sont 5 bétons de résistance courante dont 4 BAP avec fibres et un BAP témoin. La particularité des BAP est le volume de pâte important. Après exposition à des cycles de températures 200, 400 et 600°C des essais mécaniques (résistance à la compression, à la traction par flexion) et les essais non destructifs ont été réalisés. Parallèlement à cela, la détermination de la porosité à l'eau, et la perte de masse. Les résultats expérimentaux montrent des comportements significatifs entre les BAP avec fibre et BAP témoin. Les essais de résistance à la compression ont permis de distinguer un gain de résistance entre 200 et 400 C°. Ce gain est expliqué par une réhydratation de la matrice cimentaire due à la migration de l'eau à travers les pores pour les BAP. L’utilisation des méthodes non destructives a permis d'obtenir une corrélation acceptable pour la détermination la résistance du béton in situ déterminé par le scléromètre et des méthodes ultrasoniques de vitesse d'impulsion. Les méthodes non destructives donnent des résultats fiables. Mais sans connaître les matériaux qui constituants le béton ces résultats restent estimative Mots-clés: Béton autoplaçant, Haute température, Propriétés mécaniques, Essai non destructif, Fibre de verre.

Composite materials based on woven Alfa and unsaturated polyester resins were manufactured by hand layup technique. The Alfa fibers were collected from the M’Sila region (Algeria). Different chemical treatments such as mercerization, permanganate, acetylating and dichromate have been used in order to modulate the mechanical properties of these composites. According to tensile and flexural tests, the treated composites showed better mechanical performances compared to their untreated counterparts. Actually, the permanganate treated fiber-reinforced composites showed 43.02 % of increase in tensile strength and 31.59 % in Young’s modulus, while the acetylated fiber-reinforced composites showed maximum improvement in flexural strength of about 23.80 %. Furthermore, the flexural modulus was also improved by 35.7 % compared to the untreated Alfa fiber composites. FTIR characterization of Alfa fibers showed that the quantity of hydroxyl groups (-OH) decreased and the crystallinity index increase by 20.53% after alkali treatment. SEM observations on fibers surface showed that the different chemical treatments modified the fiber which improved the fiber–matrix adhesion. Keywords: . Alfa fibers, composites, chemical treatment, tensile test, mechanical properties.

For several decades, the field of study of high-temperature on the behavior of ordinary concrete was investigated both experimentally and theoretically. However, novel materials as self-compacting concrete (SCC), where the risk of thermal instability is accentuated and whose mechanical behavior for high temperature exposure still not much explored. In addition, the specific formulation of this type of concrete related to its placement requirement. This is capable to modify the mechanical behavior at the hardened state once compared to the traditional vibrated concrete. The SCC behavior subjected to high temperature has to be particularly studied. The present research work used five types of concrete materials of actual resistance; where four self-compacting concrete mixtures and one ordinary concrete were used. The particularity of the self-compacting concrete is the important dough volume, after exposure of temperature cycles 200C°, 400C° and 600°C degrees of mechanical tests compression strength, tensile strength and the elastic modulus) were evaluated, in parallel to this, the determination of water porosity and the weight loss. The concrete degradation after a certain time after the cooling was studied. For specimenssubjected to different heat cycles and left 30 days in the laboratory (in the open area), the measured weightloss and compressivestrength tests were conducted. Keywords:Self compacting concrete (SCC), Degradation, high temperature, mechanical properties.

This paper has the aim of characterizing the behavior of a dunes sand collected in Boussaâda city (wilaya of M’sila, Algeria), where important disorders were observed in the road works and in the small buildings. Triaxial drained shear tests results performed on this sand using a servo-controlled triaxial press are presented and described. Simulation results of the sand behavior using two hyperbolic models and their application to calculate the bearing capacity of strip footing resting on a sand massif of geotechnical characteristics comparable with those of Boussaâda dunes sand are also presented and analyzed. It is concluded that the numerical results are concordant with the experimental results for the considered hyperbolic models. But, these two models lead to bearing capacity values lower than those given by Terzaghi’s formula.

Cet article présente les résultats d'une série de calculs de stabilité effectués sur le versant instable de Sidi-Ahmed (Béjaïa, Algérie), où d’importantes habitations urbaines nouvelles ont été construites, et propose une solution pour son confortement. Les calculs de stabilité effectués visent à situer la ligne de rupture ayant af-fecté l’équilibre du versant et à en déterminer le coefficient de sécurité. Les résultats obtenus montrent que le glissement est vraisemblablement plan, incliné dans le sens de la plus grande pente. Ils confirment les observations faites sur le terrain et les résultats de l’étude géotechnique effectuée sur ce site. Parmi les solutions de confortement possibles du versant, le renforcement par pieux en béton armé apparaît comme la technique la mieux adaptée. Les résultats des calculs effectués semblent privilégier de disposer une seule rangée de pieux en milieu de pente.
