Using solid wastes (SWs) as backfilling material to fill underground mined-out areas (UMOAs) solved the environmental problems caused by SWs and reduced the backfilling cost. In this study, fly ash (FA), gypsum and steel slag (SS) were used to prepar...
Cement-based composites (CBCs) are essential in the construction sector due to their cost-effectiveness, availability, and versatility, but they struggle with low tensile strength and poor heat resistance. Recent advancements have highlighted the pot...
Fire is a significant threat to human life and civil infrastructures. Builders and architects are hankering for safer and sustainable alternatives of concrete that do not compromise with their design intent or fire safety requirements. The aim of the...
Ecological problems such as natural resource depletion and massive quantities of waste for disposal are now guiding progressive civilization towards sustainable construction. The reduction of natural resources and the discarding of debris into open l...
The dielectric properties of cement-based composites (CBC) are highly sensitive to environmental humidity, which seriously restricts the quantitative interpretation accuracy of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) in the non-destructive testing of cement c...
