Experimental Study on Compressive Strength and Elastic Modulus of Ferrous Mill Tailing Concrete


Experimental Study on Compressive Strength and Elastic Modulus of Ferrous Mill Tailing Concrete is a scholarly work, published in 2013 in ''Journal of Engineering Science and Technology Review''. The main subjects of the publication include materials science, composite material, prism, rock mechanics, elastic modulus, mill, compressive strength, modulus, and ferrous metal. In the aim at developing and utilizing ferrous mill tailing resources to save energy, protect environment and develop sustainable society, the experimental study on ferrous mill tailing (FMT) concrete are carried out.The strength grades of concrete used in tests are C30, C35, C40, C45, C50 and C55.Based on the compressive tests, the cubic strength and prism strength of FMT concrete along with their relationship were obtained.Meanwhile, with prism compressive test, the elastic modulus of FMT concrete and its relationship with compressive standard strength also were obtained.The test results show that the ratio of prism compressive strength to cubic compressive strength for FMT concrete is about 0.8-0.9 and the FMT concrete elastic modulus increase with its strength grades.
