Large amounts of pumice stone generated by the submarine volcanic eruption at Fukutoku Okanoba on 13 August 2021 drifted ashore, affecting ship navigation and fishery operations and posing challenges for disposal and a risk to benthic sea-life. As a new ...

Calcareous sand is a special marine soil rich in calcium carbonate minerals, characterized by brittle particles. It is, therefore, widely used as a filling material in the construction of islands and reefs. In this study, a series of cyclic tri-axial tes...

It is generally known that the two most crucial elements of concrete that depend on the slump value of the mixture are workability and compressive strength. In addition, slump retention is more delicate than the commonly used slump value since it reflect...

Pit sand generally has a lower silica content than sand sourced from rivers or crushed stones. The effect of this sand on the creep of concrete has not yet been fully studied. Understanding the creep of concrete can help to estimate the behaviour of stru...

After removing the mold from the secondary lining concrete of a tunnel, problems such as honeycomb and hemp surface easily occur. To obtain self-compacting fair-faced concrete (SCFFC) that can meet strength requirements and effectively solve the above pr...

Soil characteristics are paramount to design pavements and to assess the economic viability of a road. In the desert, such as that found in southern Libya, the very poor quality of soils leads to important pavement distress such as cracks, rutting, potho...
