Physicomechanical characteristics and durability of the cement pastes containing fly ash (FA) and iron-oxide nanoparticles (NI) showed that workability was reduced with the FA addition, although it was counterbalanced when ...

In order to evaluate the tensile strength of concrete made with a shrinkage-reducing admixture (SRA) along with fly ash, nine mix designs were prepared and tested at ages of 3, 5, 7, 14, 28, and 56 days under different ...

This thesis presents results from a comprehensive laboratory study carried out to investigate the feasibility of using Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion fly ash for improvement of engineering properties, particularly ...

Coal has been a major energy source since the Industrial Revolution. Despite its environmental problems, coal consumption is still growing because of the lack of alternatives such as natural gas and petroleum resources. ...
