The Architect s Studio Companion Rules of Thumb for Preliminary Design by Edward Allen and Joseph Iano is a practical guide that provides architects with essential guidelines and rules of thumb to follow during the preliminary design phase of a project This book covers various topics including structural systems environmental control systems and
With its distinguished editor and eminent editorial committee Building materials in civil engineering is a standard introductory reference book on the complete range of building materials
Presently the realization of complex unconventional designs using efficient modalities is possible due to an increasing interest in interdisciplinary approaches materials science mathematics
The Australian Institute of Architects is the peak body for the architectural profession representing over 14 500 members in professional practice and education It has national and state offices across Australia The 39S House stands as a testament to true low impact sustainability within the built environment Beyond achieving NatHERS
Fundamental knowledge about the reaction mechanism of calcined clays in cement and their mutual interaction is important for their assessment as supplementary cementitious materials and the resulting concrete properties In this study the hydration of two cements differing in alkali content and with the addition of a highly reactive aluminium rich

Experiments were carried out to determine the conditions for the accelerated carbonation of reactive MgO cements which are blends of MgO Portland cement PC and pulverised fuel ash pfa The samples were exposed to two levels of CO2 5 and 20% in their curing environment at two levels of relative humidity RH namely 65 and 98% RH and the

This paper examines on the setting time and mechanical strength behaviour of slag cement pastes activated with different alkaline activators For this purpose three alkaline solutions were used waterglass solution 27% SiO2 18 % Na2O and 55% H2O NaOH and Na2CO3 maintaining always a constant concentration of Na2O 4% by mass of slag The

Quantification of the progress of hydration of supersulfated cements SSC may be approached in two ways a from recording the increasing dissolution of the slag particles directly and b indirectly from quantifying the formation of the hydration phases Image analysis based on backscattered electron imaging in a scanning electron microscope SEM the
