Effects of Using Seawater and Recycled Coarse Aggregates on Plain Concrete Characteristics
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)Using seawater and/or recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) for concrete mixing is deemed advantageous from a sustainability perspective. This paper reports on the results of an experimental study on fresh and hardened properties ... -
Fresh and hardened properties of seawater-mixed concrete
( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article)Using seawater for mixing concrete is potentially advantageous from a sustainability perspective. However, the presence of high concentrations of chloride in the seawater can lead to corrosion of steel reinforcement. This ... -
Material performance and cost effectiveness of seawater-mixed rubberized concrete
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)The combined use of seawater and recycled tire aggregate (RTA) in concrete is potentially a way forward towards sustainable construction. It can help control harvesting of natural aggregates, manage waste tires, mitigate ... -
Predicted and Back-calculated Coefficients of Permeability of Randomly Fractured Rock Mass: A Case Study
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)This paper presents the discrepancy between the coefficients of permeability measured for randomly fractured limestone using field falling-head tests and that back-calculated for the same rock mass based on the actual ...
