Abstract

Extensive data are presented on the properties, in the fresh and hardened state, of fly ash concrete containing normal weight and light weight aggregates suitable for structural applications. Tests on reinforced concrete beams and slabs are reported to show that fly ash concrete can exhibit structural performance similar to that of conventional concrete with adequate safety factors and predicted by existing codes.

Framework for Characterizing the Performance of High-Early Strength, High-Volume Fly Ash (HVFA) Concrete Structures

Conference Gombeda, Matthew

This presentation will highlight the development of a comprehensive framework to characterize the performance of high-volume fly ash (HVFA) concretes at early ages and discuss the resulting implications for concrete structures built using such materials. Achieving high-early compressive and/or flexural strength is often of particular importance for precast and/or prestressed concrete components – due to early age loading demands resulting from lifting, handling, or application of initial prestress – or other types of concrete structures that can significantly benefit from rapid strength development - such as for bridge deck repairs. The framework first includes a methodology for optimizing the strengthmore »« less

Production of concrete containing fly ash for structural applications. Research report

Technical Report Archuleta, L; Tikalsky, P; Carrasquillo, R

Structural applications of concrete fly ash have been limited mainly to high-strength concrete in the past. The trend is primarily due to the lack of information available to the resident engineer concerning curing conditions, setting times, strength characteristics, and durability of normal-strength fly-ash concrete. The study addresses some of the major concerns of resident highway engineers on concrete containing fly ash for structural concrete in highway applications. The report summarizes the experimental observations and conclusions from a research program investigating the properties of both fresh and hardened structural concrete containing fly ash.
Drying shrinkage of fibre-reinforced lightweight aggregate concrete containing fly ash

Journal Article Kayali, O; Haque, M; Zhu, B - Cement and Concrete Research

Lightweight aggregate concretes containing fly ash with a compressive strength between 61 to 67 NPa were produced. The lightweight aggregate used was sintered fly ash. The concretes were reinforced with either polypropylene or steel fibres. The fibres did not affect the compressive strength, but did increase the tensile strength of these concretes. The modulus of elasticity of all the lightweight concretes tested was about 21 GPa, compared to 35 GPa for the normal-weight concrete. Fibre reinforcement did not affect the value of the elastic modulus. This type of lightweight concrete, containing fly ash as 23% of the total cementitious content,more »« less

Mechanical properties of high performance concrete made with high calcium high sulfate fly ash

Journal Article Zhang, Y; Sun, W; Shang, L - Cement and Concrete Research

A high calcium fly ash with high SO{sub 3} content was used to produce high performance concrete. In all the mixes, the fly ash contents of 50% and 60% by weight were applied. Although fly ash cement pastes showed severe volume instability and poor pore structure development, mortars and concretes incorporating high mass high calcium fly ash exhibited good performance in both fresh and hardened state as those with low calcium fly ash did. The 3d and 28d compressive strength of mortars reached 25.2--42.2MPa respectively with the water binder ratio varying from 0.30 to 0.24. What is noticeable is thatmore »« less
Fly ash and concrete: a study determines whether biomass, or coal co-firing fly ash, can be used in concrete

Journal Article Wang, Shuangzhen; Baxter, Larry - The Concrete Producer

Current US national standards for using fly ash in concrete (ASTM C618) state that fly ash must come from coal combustion, thus precluding biomass-coal co-firing fly ash. The co-fired ash comes from a large and increasing fraction of US power plants due to rapid increases in co-firing opportunity fuels with coal. The fly ashes include coal fly ash, wood fly ash from pure wood combustion, biomass and coal co-fired fly ash SW1 and SW2. Also wood fly ash is blended with Class C or Class F to produce Wood C and Wood E. Concrete samples were prepared with fly ashmore »« less
