Freeze/Thaw Resistance of Mortar with Recycled Tyre Waste at Varying Particle Sizes

There is a growing concern for finding alternative solutions to construction materials in order to minimize their environmental impact as well as enhancing their service life. This study investigated the durability of cementitious mortars prepared by replacing fine aggregate (sand) with recycled tyre shreds and crumbs, aiming at providing an alternative outlet to tyre waste disposal. Tyre shreds obtained at different particle ...

Durability of Ternary Blended Concrete Incorporating Rice Husk Ash and Calcined Clay

Research on the combined substitution of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) has already demonstrated that it might be one of the few viable options to produce low-carbon concrete at scale. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the performance and durability of rice husk ash (RHA) and calcined clay (CC) in ternary blended concrete exposed to chloride attacks under wet/dry cycles. ...

The Production of Polyurethane from Waste Vegetable Oil-Based Polyols and Modelling of Rheological Properties

A study of the potential use of renewable resources to produce polyols, which in turn are used to produce polyurethane. The thermal conductivity of a number of results was taken using the TLS-100 device. This device functions using the transient line source method. A future increase in the production of polyurethane through renewable resources is imperative to reduce the consumption of fossil ...

Conference Report The 3rd International Conference on Energy Efficiency in Historic Buildings

Energy efficiency in old building is very dependent upon how much heat is escaping through the walls. To determine this it is imperative to know the thermal conductivity of certain solid stone walls. This paper focuses on investigating the properties of some types of common stones used in traditional masonry of Scotland. The TLS-100 device is used to calculate the thermal conductivity ...

Enhancement of Heat Transfer Coefficient using Fe₂O₃-Water Nanofluids

A detailed development of a local heat transfer probe specifically designed for analyzing nanofluids. In this paper iron oxide is used as a test subject to determine the accuracy of the probe. Different concentrations were measured ranging between 0 and 0.09% by volume. Thermal conductivity is also measured by a TLS-100 instrument, based on the transient line source. It is shown that the heat ...
