  • Experimental investigations on mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete composites 
    Vijai, K; Kumutha, R; Vishnuram, BG [Conference-Full-text]
    Due to growing environmental concerns of the cement industry, alternative cement technologies have become an area of increasing interest. It is now believed that new binders are indispensable for enhanced environmental and ...
  • Feasibility study of carbon black contaminated silica sand in the production of black blocks 
    Baskaran, K; Gopinath, K [Conference-Full-text]
    Present study attempted to verify the feasibility of producing cement blocks by partially replacing fine aggregates with carbon black contaminated silica sand (CBCSS), which is a by-product of the tyre manufacturing process. ...
  • Field application of FRP material in Kentucky 
    Peiris, A; Harik, I [Conference-Full-text]
    Repair and rehabilitation utilizing FRP composites, especially carbon FRP fabric and laminates are becoming the primary choice for strengthening damaged structural components or for upgrading structures. The deployment of ...
  • Flexural behaviour of reinforced rubberised concrete beam 
    Jayanath, APL; Gamage, JCPH; Chandrathilaka, ERK [Conference-Abstract]
    A considerable number of tires in worldwide, approach end of their service life each year, and a significant portion of these discarded tires are disposed to the environment by landfilling and tire burning without proper ...
  • Flexure behaviour of damaged reinforced rubberized concrete beams strengthened with carbon fibre reinforced polymers 
    Maleesha, RKS; Gamage, JCPH; Chandrathilaka, ERK [Conference-Abstract]
    Developing rubberised concrete (RuC) for structural applications is an excellent solution for the scarcity of natural aggregates and the discharge of rubber waste in bulk volumes into the natural environment. With the ...
  • In search of future construction material - recycled aggregates for concrete production 
    Premasiri, ESY; Kariapper, ABY; Abeysinghe, AMGGMB; Karunarathne, S [Conference-Full-text]
