Tests were conducted for workability, compressive strength, split tensile strength and rapid chloride permeability (RCPT) up to the age 28 days.
Analysis is conducted for both tensile and compressive axisymmetric loading scenarios and spherical void geometry.
Constant amplitude fatigue tests at different tensile and compressive conditions were conducted for the determination of the 17 S N curves.
Uniaxial compressive tests were conducted for a low-volume tire rubber concrete (RC) with different rubber volume content levels and particle sizes (five of each).
The tests were divided into two stages; in the first stage compressive strength was conducted for all mixes while X-ray, microscopic scan (SEM), and infrared analysis (IR) were carried out for the most pronounced promising mixes.
Specimens are carefully designed to achieve various loading conditions from shear at low stress triaxiality to the balanced biaxial tension at high stress triaxiality for DP980, while both tensile and compressive tests are conducted for AA7075.
Tests were conducted for initial surface absorption, sorptivity, water absorption and compressive strength at the ages of 35, 56, and 84 days.
The "cross talk compression test" at which electric current and compressive strain was perpendicular has been conducted for the first time in this study.
Since the vertical load carrying capacity primarily depends on the compressive strength, a comprehensive study was conducted for rammed earth walls constructed with three commonly available laterite soil types in Sri Lanka.
Compressive strength tests on all the SCC mixes were also conducted for reference.
