In this study, the influence of micro- And nano-filler content on the mechanical properties of epoxy composites was studied. The matrix material is epoxy; the micro-fillers are Al2O3, TiO2 and fly ash added in 10 wt% to ...

This paper presents a review of the proposed design for assessing the tensile capacity of a simply truss framing system of cold-formed steel. A series of connection tests were made to investigate the capacity of connections ...

In this study, the deflection and cracking of lightweight ferrocement panels (LFPs) containing expanded perlite based mortar (EPBM) was investigated. For this purpose, twelve LFPs with one or two layers of wire mesh were ...

In this study, sepiolite and natural soil-added sepiolite mixtures were studied to find out whether they can be used as compacted landfill liner, as they are an economic alternative to the other compacted clay liners or ...

Froth flotation has been widely used for cleaning and desulfurisation of coals for many decades all over the world. There is a close relationship between floatability of minerals and contact angle. Therefore surface ...

In the present study, lightweight expanded clay aggregates were produced from clay, waste brick powders, albite floatation waste, and coal at various temperatures ranged from 900 °C to 1250 °C. After the production, the ...

The historical building stock and seismic risk of Anatolia draws considerable attention of the engineers for studying the construction techniques and the earthquake performance of these structures. This study is dealing ...

Shear strength of a soil can be defined as the maximum shear stress that can resist by the internal forces of the soil. Shear strength must be determined to solve the soil stability problems. The shear strength parameters ...

Bricks were produced by using six different combinations of fly ash, flue gas desulphurization gypsum and lime with the addition of 10 wt% water. The products were shaped by means of pressure forming process. The bricks ...

The compressive strength test applied to standard samples is one of the most important tests indicating the quality of concrete in structures. The results of the standard tests are compared with the values used in design ...
