This study investigated the effects of polypropylene fibre (PF) reinforcement on the mechanical behaviour of clay soil. Using clay soil and polypropylene fibres from China's Inner Mongolia and Hebei Provinces, respectively, a series of soil samples with 0%, 1.5%, 2.25%, and 3% PF content by soil weight were subjected to compaction, shear strength, consolidation, California bearing ratio, and ...
with limestone masonry. The work was carried out in order to make a structural assessment of a gothic construction built in the center of Paris in the 13th century (Old Refectory of the Saint-Martin des Champs priory – 1230) (Fig. 1). The structural analysis of this monument required the mechanical properties of the limestone masonry to be known.

Oct 01, 2014· 2.1. Lime. In our study, white air-slaked lime (CL90) Čertovy schody, Czech Republic, of a great purity (98.98% of CaO + MgO) was used. The chemical composition is summarized in Table 1 and the grading curve is plotted in Fig. 1.The most frequent particle diameter found in lime was 15 μm, diameter at 50% was equal to 13 μm and diameter at 90% to 38 μm.
The production of a high performance concrete (HPC) has expanded the scope use of concrete exposed to aggressive environments, thanks to the limited porosity, the durability, the rheological, physical and mechanical properties with the respect remarkable to a conventional concrete. The objective of this study is to develop a HPC incorporating finely ground limestone.
Table of Soda Lime Glass's Properties. The table below goes into more detail on the mechanical, thermal, optical, chemical, and electrical properties of soda lime glass. Below are outlined the class of property, the property itself, its measurement for soda lime glass, and an .
Limestone is also subject to mechanical weathering, especially in dry climates, by the abrasive action of wind carrying rock fragments and other debris. This combination of chemical and mechanical weathering makes limestone very vulnerable to deterioration when exposed to the atmosphere.

Limestone is a type of common industrial natural stone. It has the highest tensile strength and the lowest thermal conductivity among natural stone materials. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare limestone to other natural stone materials (top) and the entire database (bottom).
Keywords: concrete, fire resistance, limestone, quartzite, granite, mechanical properties. 1. Introduction Concrete is the most widely used construction material in the world because of its durability, strength, and resistance to fire. Structural concrete must satisfy the fire safety requirements identified in building codes (EN 1992;ACI 2014).
