The influence of concrete mix composition and environmental exposure on long-term chloride ingress in concrete
The parameters influencing long-term chloride ingress in concrete structures exposed to different environmental conditions in South Africa were investigated, aiming at improving service life prediction models for reinforced concrete structures situated in marine exposure classes. Time-dependent …

Time-dependent losses in post-tensioned prestressed concrete
… and shape of members and concrete mix composition. Twenty seven beams consisting of both I- and rectangular sections with different concrete mixes, and tested under different environmental and loading conditions, were monitored for a period of one year. Tests were also conducted on …

Estabilização de areia com cinza volante e cal; efeito do cimento como aditivo e de brita na mistura
… and hidrated calcitic lime, and the effects of admixing portland cement and crushed stone on the compressive strength of the mix. In order to enhance fly ash role the soil chosen was a non-cohesive one - a uniform dune sand - which is not quite suitable for stabilization with cement and not at all …

Effect of Emulsifiers and Food Gum on Non Fat Ice Cream
<p>Non fat ice cream was made with a mix composition of 12% milk solids-not-fat, 12% sucrose, 5% (36 dextrose equivalent) corn syrup solids, rs% (18 dextrose equivalent) maltodextrin, 0.25% stabilizer blend, and vanilla extract. Treatments were prepared by adding the following emulsifiers at 3 …

Increasing the Protein Content of Ice Cream
<p>Vanilla ice cream was made with a mix composition of 10.5% milk fat, 10.5% milk solids-not-fat, 12% beet sugar, and 4 % corn syrup solids (36 dextrose equivalent). Seven batches of ice cream mixes were made and each batch represented one treatment. Three replications were performed for a total …

Carbonation of Functionally Graded Concrete
… with concrete, thereby changing its chemical composition. It is a durability concern for concrete structures, since carbonated concrete does not provide adequate corrosion protection to embedded reinforcement. Increased resistance to carbonation has traditionally been achieved by increasing …

Effect of Double Homogenization and Whey Protein Concentrate on the Texture of Ice Cream
<p>Ice cream was made with a mix composition of 11 % milk fat, 11 % milk solids-not-fat, 13% sucrose, 3% com syrup solids (36 dextrose equivalent), 0.28% stabilizer blend or 0 .10% emulsifier and vanilla extract. Mixes were high temperature short time pasteurized at 80°C for 25 sec, homogenized at …

Characterisation and properties of alkali activated pozzolanic materials.
… is suitable as a cementitious and pozzolanic admixture. Most European countries are well endowed with coal-fired power stations and this produces fly and bottom ash, flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) gypsum. However, less than 25% of the total ash from power stations has found an industrial use …

Optimizing the Use of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) in Hot Mix Asphalt Surface Mixes
… materials. Instead, the use of RAP in surface mixes is more limited, with a major concern being that the high RAP mixes may not perform as well as traditional mixes. To reduce risks of compromised performance, the use of RAP has commonly been controlled by specifications that limit the allowed …
