Abstract: The experimental studies on self-compacting and tiny expanding concrete filled in steel tube are introduced, which including the measurement of low ability of mixtures, the proportioning of the concrete filled in steel tube. The self-compacting and tiny expanding steel tube concrete has been applied in a large span bridge structure. The state of construction shows that the concrete have a good pump ability, a small loss of slump, a high strength early strength and a better self-compacting property.

Abstract: Introduced the essential construction craft of Nanchang Shengmi bridge (75+2×228+75m center bearing type steel tube concrete tie bar arched bridge). According to the construction craft and the quality specification request, discussed the steel arched bridge manufacture and the anticorrosion, the steel arched bridge rib erects, the steel arched bridge rib welding, the steel arched bridge in concrete configuration and the scene constructs, the steel tube protection coating construction, then proposed the construction quality control of large span steel tube concrete arch bridge. The conclusion of the article may be used at the similar steel tube concrete arched bridge construction.

Abstract: The pavement and storage yard on port is located in depth soft soil foundation, the settlement is large, so that the approach of enhancing the bearing ability of the pavement and storage yard on port is advanced. Field Experiment of test section which satisfied with the field test methods was carried out. Resilient modulus was determined by the bearing plate method, the pavement base on port engineering reinforced with glass fiber geogrid was analyzed.The test result shows that the effect on the base on port engineering reinforced with glass fiber geogrid is satisfied, the ratio reaches 12% .In addition, the effect of the position reinforced with glass fiber geogrid is different, the better effect of reinforcement with glass fiber geogrid is the toper of the base on port. On this basis,the appoarch of the base on port reinforced with glass fiber geogrid is reference on design and contruction.

Abstract: By numerical simulation and contrasting with experimental conclusions, mechanical models in every loading stage of CFRP reinforced concrete bridge deck were established. The results showed that, numerical simulation results of non-prestressed bridge decks fitted corresponding test results well. The stiffness of prestressed structures had been greatly improved than non-prestressed structures, so the high strength performance of CFRP had been used more effectively.

Abstract: One 6-stories brick-concrete structure was built in the late of 1990s. The uneven settlement of the foundation had occurred and the average concrete compressive strength of the foundation was close to C30 standard. Apparent observations indicated that some white powdery substance which was not adhesive was precipitated at the aggregate/mortar interface, pores and cracks. Micro observations by means of a Scanning Electron Microscope equipped with a Energy Dispersive Spectrometer showed the coexistence of ettringite and small amount of alkali–silica gel, which proved that the foundation had suffered from sulfate attack and alkali–silica reaction.

Abstract: The paper presents the influence of polyethylene glycol additives with molecular weights of 2000...6000 on basic physical and mechanical properties of plaster hardening at low positive and negative temperatures. The dependence of adhesion strength to the polystyrene foam as well as compressive strength of plaster hardening at temperatures (+5...-10) oC on PEG molecular weight was established.

Abstract: A coefficient of friction tester (CFT) for the cross-tensioned prestressed concrete pavement (CTCP) sliding layer was designed and developed basing on the Amonton law. The CFT can obtain precise values of the CTCP sliding layer coefficient of friction. Meanwhile, the sand and polyethylene plastic film (SPPF) sliding layer which has already been used in CTCP experimental road was tested using the CFT. The best testing speed (1mm/min) for CFT was obtained with applying regression analysis method to the results. The optimum material parameters for the SPPF are the combination of 2.6 fineness modulus of sand, 10mm thickness of sliding layer, and 3 μm thickness of polyethylene plastic film (PPF). The optimum materials combination of the SPPF provides minimum coefficient of friction to the CTCP sliding layer which can reduce the stress and deformation of the CTCP slab.

Abstract: Based on aerated concrete block wall material, design, construction three aspects under effective control, so as to avoid the cracking of the wall and carry out.

Abstract: This study investigates the influence of two fine mineral fillers on the main characteristics of tile adhesives – limestone powder and silica flour Silverbond 50. These fillers were added in various dosages: from 2.5% to 10% by weight of mixture.

Abstract: A new kind of 310mm thick load-bearing thermal insulation block utilizing construction waste as coarse aggregate was developed and produced. Internal thermal bridge is reduced by special design of holes pattern and cut off by mal-posed thermal insulation layer arrangement. By testing heat transfer coefficient of four kinds of masonry walls, different aggregate type, masonry unit type and insulation material which affect thermal performance of masonry were studied. Results show that heat transfer coefficient of walls with recycled aggregates is lower than that with natural aggregates under the same condition. By filling thermal insulation material in block holes, heat transfer coefficient is dramatically lowered. Among four types of masonry walls, heat transfer coefficient of 310mm thick load-bearing block wall with recycled aggregate is the lowest, and its thermal insulation performance is the best.
