“…Numerous researchers have been seeking for materials that can serve as cost effective resources for brick manufacturing and other building materials. 2,3 In this context, Jamoussi and Srasra 4 discovered a potential clay deposit that could be used for ceramic industry. This clayey formation, outcropping in the Gafsa area (southern Tunisia), belongs to the extensive Messinian-Pliocene sedimentary clay deposit, rich in illite and kaolinite.…”

“…Lasis [3] reported that 10% cement by weight is needed to stabilize lateritic soils to produce blocks of the same order of compressive strength as Sandcrete. Adepegba, et al [6] found out that for any given lateritic cement mix, there exists an optimum water/cement ratio for maximum strength which increased linearly with increasing cement mix proportions.…”

Article HistoryThis paper presents a summary of the results of a study on the use of a local admixture Ipomoea asarifolia ("Ajara") on the compressive strength and weight of specimens made from both cement stabilized and unstabilized lateritic soils. The effect of Ipomoea asarifolia extractions on the strength characteristic of lateritic blocks was investigated. Three mix proportions of cement: laterite of 0:1, 1:2 and 1:4 using lateritic soils from four different locations from around Ife while using six concentration levels of extracted liquid of Ipomoea asarifolia (0; 20; 40; 60; 80 and 100%) in fresh water as the mixing "water" (fluid). Ipomoea asarifolia specimen was analyzed to determine constituent chemical composition and their effect in reaction with other materials. Sieve analysis of the lateritic of the lateritic soil mix was carried out while a total of 132 -100 mm cubes size were tested using a 1570 kN Avery-Denison Compression Testing Machine.

This study applied newly developed multivariate statistical models to estimating the mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete cylinder encased by fiber reinforced polymer (FRP). Two different types of RFPs were applied, namely flax FRP and polyester FRP. Ten independent variables were predefined including the FRP type and cylinder size. It was found that several mixed models outperformed the traditional linear regression approach, based on the accuracy and residual value distribution. Individual factor analysis indicated that the fiber thickness and layer number had more significant impacts on the strength and strain of FRP-encased concrete's transitional point, compared to their impacts at the ultimate state.
