Can I read Effect of Coarse Aggregate on Elastic Modulus and Compressive Strength of High Performance Concrete on EtoBox?

Effect of Coarse Aggregate on Elastic Modulus and Compressive Strength of High Performance Concrete by F.P. Zhou; F.D. Lydon; B.I.G. Barr is a Engineering article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Effect of Coarse Aggregate on Elastic Modulus and Compressive Strength of High Performance Concrete about?

A set of high performance concrete mixes, of low water/cement ratio and fixed mortar composition, containing six different types of aggregates of constant volume fraction, has been used to check moduli of elasticity at 7, 28 and 91 days, The results have shown that, apart from the aggregates of very low and very high modulus, concrete modulus at 28 days can be predicted quite well by well-known models. Increase in modulus thereafter is slight. Cube strength (about 90 N/mm2 at 28 days with normal aggregates) is drastically reduced, as expected, by the weaker aggregates and is also reduced (by about 9%) by the stiffer (steel) aggregates.

Who reads Effect of Coarse Aggregate on Elastic Modulus and Compressive Strength of High Performance Concrete?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Engineering.
