  1. 6. Dispersion of cement-based grout with ultrasound and conventional laboratory dissolvers

    University essay from KTH/Byggvetenskap

    Author : Antranik Karamanoukian; [2020]
    Keywords : ultrafine cement grout; microfine cement grout; dispersion; additives; ultrasound dissolver; laboratory dissolver; ultrafint cementbruk; mikrofin cementbruk; dispergering; tillsatser; ultraljud apparat; laboratorieblandaren;

    Abstract : In any underground facilities especially tunnels, it is essential to seal the area against water ingress and leakage of reserved materials. Grouting is a common method used to seal rocks around tunnels, successful grouting reduces the duration and cost of the construction, guarantees better working environment and higher safety, minimizes the maintenance and most important decreases the corresponding environmental hazards significantly.

  3. 7. Recycling of concrete waste with wood waste through heating compaction

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Li Liang; [2020]
    Keywords : Recycling; Concrete waste; Wooden waste; Heating powder compaction;

    Abstract : Concrete, as primary building material, is widely used in most construction project. For this reason, large amounts of concrete waste were generated from construction and demolition. One way to reuse concrete waste is to use it as backfill material for landfilling and road bases. READ MORE

  4. 8. The Impact of Fracture Orientation on the Choice of Grout Fan Geometry - a Statistical Analysis

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Fredrik Osterman; [2019]
    Keywords : Rock Fissure Grouting; Grout Fan Geometry; Geology; Discrete Fracture Network; Sprickinjektering i berg; skärmgeometri; geologi; diskreta spricknätverk;

    Abstract : Water ingress into rock tunnels is a problematic phenomenon – especially in urban areas – as a lowered groundwater table may cause harmful settlements. Furthermore, too much ingress can be an incentive for the environmental court to halt the tunnel process, in order to protect the nature as part of a national interest. READ MORE

  5. 9. Indirect methods as quality control of cemented hydraulic fill : Renström mine, Boliden mineral AB

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Amanda Rask; [2019]
    Keywords : Backfill; CHF;

    Abstract : The Renström mine, Boliden Mineral AB, uses, among other methods, the Transverse long hole stoping method with backfill. The mine uses a cement-stabilized hydraulic fill (CHF), which is a mixture of enrichment sand, cement and water. The most important factor in relation to strength is the water cement ratio.

  6. 10. Design of Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete Bridges : A Comparative Study to Conventional Concrete Bridges

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Viktor Eriksson; [2019]
    Keywords : Bridge design; CO2 emissions; Mechanical properties and behaviour; Straight short steel fibres; UHPC; UHPFRC; Bro dimensionering; CO2 utsläpp; Korta raka stålfibrer; Mekaniska egenskaper och beteende; UHPC; UHPFRC;

    Abstract : The use of Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) in the construction industry started in the 1990s and has since then been used for bridges all over the world. The mechanical properties and the dense matrix result in lower material usage and superior durability compared to conventional concrete, but the implementation of UHPFRC in the Swedish industry has been delayed.
