“…For the construction of the walls of the complex, such materials as brick, porous block, wood, expanded clay concrete, foam concrete, aerated concrete were considered. As a result of a comparative analysis, a material for walls was chosen -foam concrete, which has the following advantages: low thermal conductivity due to porosity, low weight, durability, noncombustibility, environmentally friendly material [15].…”

Designing and creating a stable functioning ecosystem of the urban environment, endowed with individual features that meet the socio-cultural needs of residents of cities – large industrial centers, is an urgent problem of modern urban planning. The presence of accumulated technogenic impact and the need for rehabilitation measures are the conditions that must be considered when reconstructing and building this type of territory. The design and improvement of the urban landscaping center is a new approach to the use of existing urban areas, based on the principles of environmental friendliness, energy and resource efficiency.

Creep stress is a detrimental stress generated by the surrounding rock during the operation of the secondary lining of the supporting structure used for high-stress soft rock tunnels in railways, highways and other projects. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate and provide solutions for damages such as cracking and deformation caused by creep stress. For this purpose, research methods used in the literature and experimental studies, as well as the theoretical, data and numerical simulation analyses, were used. Accordingly, the mix proportion design, specimen production and the tests of physical and mechanical properties of EPP foam concrete were carried out. Moreover, the EPP(polypropylene foam) concrete was used as the buffer layer of the supporting structure, the practical application of which was verified through numerical analyses. The findings of the study revealed the effective compression performance of the mix proportion design method. Furthermore, the EPP foam concrete was found to be able to absorb the energy generated by the creep of the surrounding rock, consequently reducing the surrounding rock pressure acting on the secondary lining structure, which, in turn, ensures the safety of the operation. The findings of the study can be used as a reference for designing similar projects.

“…By mixing cement, admixtures, additives and other materials, mixing, molding and mold curing. Its interior contains a large number of uniform and small pores [10][11][12][13][14], so it is also known as foaming cement. It is a new type of waste benefit, environmental protection, energy saving material [15], but the current application is relatively limited, mostly used in housing insulation and heat insulation [16], sound insulation [17], fire retardant [18], shock prevention and shock absorption [19], pollution absorption [20] and other fields, in the field of desertification control, is basically still in the laboratory stage.…”

Common Portland cement was used as the main matrix material and cementations material, fly ash as admixture, 30 % wt hydrogen peroxide as foaming agent and other additives to prepare cement based condensate porous material. The optimum amount of foaming agent was determined by water absorption and release experiment, and the metal fiber was added to the material to enhance the water collecting performance. As the amount of foaming agent increased, water absorption increased, water release rate decreased, the optimum content of foaming agent was 2.73 %, the material had better water absorption and water release performance, and the addition of metal fiber could obviously improve the water collection performance of cement-based porous condensate material.
