Reducing coarse aggregate in concrete mixes reduces the compressive strength of the concrete.

Abstract

This study includes the effect of reducing coarse aggregate in concrete mixture on its softening and hardening properties, where the concrete mixtures were prepared with varying proportions of coarse aggregate and replaced with fine aggregate (30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 100%). Hardened concrete was studied by means of a compression resistance test. The average compressive strength of three samples taken , and that is after the concrete has been treated by immersing in water for a period of 7 days, 14 days, and 28 days. The operational degree of softened concrete was determined for all the above mentioned ratios, where six concrete mixtures were prepared, with a total of 60 cubes, at a ratio of mixing 1:2:4 cement and aggregate (fine, coarse) and by adding water to cement in a ratio of 0.5, the results indicated that the concrete of (40%) coarse aggregate was most suitable for use in desert areas.

تتضمن هذه الورقة الدراسة تأثير خفض الركام الخشن في الخلطة الخرسانية على خواص الخرسانة اللدنة والمتصلدة، حيث تم إعداد الخلطات الخرسانية ذات نسب متفاوتة من الركام الخشن واستبداله بالركام الناعم (100% ، 70% ، 60% ، 50% ، 40% ، 30%). تمت دراسة الخرسانة المتصلدة عن طريق اختبار مقاومة الضغط، وقد تم أخد متوسط قوة ضغط 3 عينات، وذلك بعد أن تم معالجة العينات بالماء لمدة 7 أيام، 14يوما، و28 يوما. قيست درجة التشغيلية للخرسانة اللدنة باستخدام مخروط الهبوط وحددت قيمة الهبوط لجميع النسب المذكورة أعلاه ، حيث تم إعداد ست خلطات خرسانية، وبإجمالي 60 مكعب، وبنسبة خلط 4:2:1الإسمنت إلى الركام (ناعم ، خشن) وبإضافة الماء إلى الإسمنت بنسبة 0.5. أوضحت النتائج أن الخلطة الخرسانية ذات نسبة (40%) من الركام الخشن كانت الأنسب للاستخدام في المناطق الصحراوية.
