Determination of the power consumed by a centrifugal disc grinder

The article deals with the methodology of determining the power consumed by a centrifugal disk grinder for breaking particles by impact, overcoming friction forces when the impactor moves along the material layer and friction forces between material layers, overcoming f...

Super strong fiber concrete as an additional reinforcement layer in flexural reinforced concrete elements

The article describes a new effective technology of strengthening reinforced concrete bridge structures by means of an added layer (added top layer, ATL) made of superstrong fiber concrete (SSFC). The results of the experimental study of samples with ATL...

Use of semi-adiabatic calorimetry to evaluate the influence of formulation factors on the heat release kinetics of cement

A technique for studying the hydration processes of cement compositions has been developed using semi-adiabatic calorimetry. The pilot plant with removable heat-insulating shells, which provides the possibility of modeling the conditions of concrete hardening in the rea...

High performance concrete of increased resistance to biological corrosion

It is shown that an increased resistance of concrete to biological corrosion can be achieved by using a high-performance complex chemical admixture containing reactive nanodispersed particles of silicon dioxide in combination with chromium oxide Cr2O3. Such an additive ...
