“…It was proposed that prism specimen may be considered more reliable than cylinder specimen to assess slant shear strength. Authors in [37] studied the shrinkage and durability properties of SCC incorporating granite sawing waste (GSW) and PP fibers along with fly ash. Shrinkage and durability properties; water absorption, porosity, acid resistance, sulfate resistance and chloride penetration were studied.…”

Self-compacted concrete (SCC) is cast in the formwork without compaction and it fulfills the formwork due to its own weight. SCC is considered to have many advantages in comparison with conventional concrete like improved construction quality, faster construction activity, reduced cost etc. SCC is produced with the same ingredients of normal concrete. However, cementitious materials are also adopted to replace the cement content in SCC in order to use waste materials from industries and agricultural products. To further enhance the performance of SCC, different types of fibers are tried in order to produce fiber reinforced SCC. The fibers in the concrete bridge the cracks and diffuse the crack propagation which improves mechanical properties. In developed countries SCC has reasonable acceptance in construction industry but in developing countries like Pakistan has not gained acceptance. This paper is focused on undertaking a review of SCC with cement replacement and fiber reinforcement materials. The main objective of this paper is to compile the literature in order to understand the various properties of SCC in fresh and hardened state when these cement replacement materials and fibers are used.

“…The adhesion strength is higher for the samples deposited at higher temperatures than the room temperature deposition samples. The reason for the higher adhesion is the stress-relieving phenomena taking place during the substrate heating process [27]. The substrate temperature acts as annealing during the deposition process and relieves stress, thus increasing the adhesion strength.…”

The diamond-like carbon- (DLC-) coating technique is used in the sliding parts of automotive engines, among other applications, to reduce friction and wear. In this work, DLC has been coated on the Aluminium 5051 sample to assess the mechanical and tribological properties. A sputtering deposition mechanism is used, and the DLC is coated using a graphite target. The developed DLC coatings are tested for adhesion strength, hardness, chemical composition using XRD, and wear behaviour. The developed DLC thin films have considerably increased the wear behaviour of the Aluminium 5051 sample and have fulfilled the objective of this study. The XRD data indicated the presence of amorphous carbon in the coating with a threefold increase to the hardness of the naked aluminium. This study provides insight into improving the aluminium wear resistance by developing a considerably hard coating.

This study aims to experimentally investigate the possibilities of reusing Granite Sawing waste (GSW) in Fibre Reinforced Self Compacting Concrete (FRSCC) using Polypropylene (PP) fibers. The effectiveness of GSW at 5, 10, 15, and 20% by weight instead of cement was investigated. The PP fibers were used at volume fractions of 0.05, 0.1, and 0.15%. In order to study the microstructure and to identify the elements of the FRSCC, SEM was used. Fresh and hardened properties were evaluated. Flyash was used as an additional mineral admixture while superplasticizer was also added to achieve required flow parameters. The GSW along with PP fibers increases the compressive strength of FRSCC. An improvement in splitting tensile strength was also observed.
