A comparative study of alkali activated slag cement concretes with carbonate and silicate activators.

Sanam I., (Corresponding) Mavroulidou M.
Topic: 
Environmental management and policies
Alkali-activated cements are increasingly gaining interest as viable alternatives to Portland cement, because they are considerably reducing CO2 emissions compared to traditional Portland cements while maintaining or exceeding performance requirements commonly specified for construction...Read more

A comparative assessment of alkali-activated stabilisers including waste materials, for the treatment of swelling-shrinking soils

(Corresponding) Mavroulidou M., Gray C., Gunn M.
Topic: 
Solid waste management
Swelling-shrinking soils (also known as expansive soils) experience very considerable volume changes upon changes in moisture content, thus causing major damages to lightweight structures, pavements, slopes and utilities. To counteract this problem chemical stabilisation of this type of soil with...Read more
