Sentence examples for workability as a from inspiring English sources

At fresh state, the mix design of concrete with recycled aggregates requires an additional quantity of water to obtain a similar workability as a concrete formulated with natural aggregates (Hansen and Boegh 1986).

The results showed that the workability as well as compressive strength before and after firing improved by increasing QP content.

This also has repercussion in the properties of concrete, which shows increased workability as well as poorer compressive strength and elastic modulus.

In this study, the opportunity of employing quartz powder (QP) to improve the workability as well as the compressive strength of alkali-activated fly ash (AAFA) pastes before and after exposure to thermal loads has been investigated.

Therefore, the formulation has to be optimized in terms of the workability, performance, as well as cost consideration.

In rheological properties, the addition of SP causes an initial improvement of workability as the yield stress is significantly reduced.

The water content was adjusted in each mixture in order to achieve the same workability as that for the control mixture.

However, PAC has significantly high workability as 1.8 cm slump value is observed for 20% PET replaced PAC at 0.42 w/c ratio.

Portland cement was replaced up to 50 wt.% RM, adjusting the relative amount of water (34 38 wt.%) in order to get mortars with suitable workability as defined by rheometry and flow table measurements.

The experimental results show that this material had excellent workability as fresh backfill slurry because of its high flowability and low bleeding rate, and the data also demonstrate that the material had good mechanical properties in a compressive test, as the hardening body of the backfill material reached around 7 MPa in 360 days.

The pervious concrete mixes were found to have sufficient workability, as assessed by hand-ball rolling test (Sriravindrarajah and Aoki 2008).
