Hace 2 días · This Special Issue focuses on developing new concretes and other building materials characterized by or aiming for specific performance characteristics, such as sustainability, durability, non-standard mechanical properties, and aesthetics.
Hace 3 días · The Basics of Cement and Concrete. Whether you’re pouring a driveway or just setting a mailbox, there are a number of specialized, pre-mixed concretes and cements to choose from when shopping for your project. Here’s how to know which is right for you. SHOP ALL CONCRETE MIX.
Hace 6 días · Two types of concretes – one made with coffee biochar and one with wood chip biochar – were laid alongside standard concrete, which will act as a control. An aerial shot of the different...
Hace 5 días · The consortium is bringing together stakeholders to accelerate the adoption of low carbon cements and concretes. One focus is to develop measurement solutions and standards to improve measurement confidence, establish measurement traceability, and enable comparability in the measurements to quantify carbon and carbonate in low carbon cements and concretes.
Hace 5 días · 09/01/2024 - News update - Canada. Three years after it was launched, the undertaking led jointly by Carmacks Enterprises, VINCI Construction GeoInfrastructure (both VINCI Construction subsidiaries) and Graham Construction opened to traffic on 19 December 2023 for Calgarians and users from throughout the province of Alberta.
Hace 5 días · In modern construction, predominantly modified concretes are used, which make it possible to ensure a given level of quality . Even a small amount of modifying components can dramatically change the process of structure formation and produce durable concrete with improved physical and mechanical characteristics [ 11 ].
Hace 3 días · There are already known, for example, cement plastics – mortars and concretes showing electrical properties, which were obtained through the use of electrically conductive additives. Electrical parameters and, in particular, electrical resistivity are currently used, e.g. to describe the durability and resistance of concrete.
