Industrial byproducts and natural pozzolanas are increasingly being used as supplementary cementitious materials. In the group of natural pozzolanas volcanic ashes are the most prominent. Despite the fact that volcanic pozzolanas were used since Roman times, not much is known about their role in influencing the long term durability of concrete. The paper presents results of the volcanic pozzolana ‘Rhenish trass’, which is quarried in western Germany and its role during an alkali silica reaction (ASR). Field data and laboratory experiments indicate that trass releases alkalis into the pore solution but also changes cement paste chemistry and alkali binding behavior. There seems to be a sensitive balance between alkali release and increase of alkali binding capacity, both mechanisms crucial for the course of an ASR in concrete.
The goal of the present study is to assess the feasibility to develop a first reliable database of materials parameters for Earth Block Masonry (EBM). The database is crucial when defining the materials safety factors. In the first part an experimental campaign of compressive tests were carried out on two types of earth block and two types of earth mortar. The results showed that the mean variation of the compressive strength was remarkably less than expected. This low variation is related to a production with high quality standards of the materials employed. In the second part a partial safety factor for EBM under uniaxial compression was determined through the reliability method. The results proved the reliability of a common calculation method for EBM based on partial safety factors following the current standards.
In the beginning of the 1980s earth building has undergone a renaissance, which nowadays leads to an increasing use of load-bearing earth constructions and in particular, earth block masonry. At present, there are no common structural standards according to the semi-probabilistic design concept, which is the state-of-the-art in European standards.
A solid database is needed for the determination of the partial safety factor on the resistance side. Therefore, compressive strength tests were carried out with two types of earth blocks and two types of prefabricated earth mortar. The evaluation showed that the variation of the compressive strength was remarkably less than expected, which seems to indicate high quality standards of the components earth block and mortar with regard to industrial production.
On the basis of these results and together with the reliability method, a partial safety factor for earth block masonry subjected to compression was determined. The main aim of the research was the development of a first valid database for material parameters of earth block masonry with particular regard to statistical characteristics. The results showed that a common calculation method for earth block masonry based on partial safety factors following the valid masonry construction standard is feasible.
Ziel der vorliegenden Untersuchung war es zu überprüfen, inwiefern eine Bemessungsvorschrift auf Basis von Teilsicherheitsbeiwerten im Lehmmauerwerksbau möglich ist. Bemessungsvorschriften im konventionellen Mauerwerksbau und im Lehmmauerwerksbau waren aufgrund des prinzipiell gleichen Tragverhaltens stets eng miteinander verknüpft. Die im Rahmen dieser Arbeit durchgeführten Druckversuche an Lehmmauermörtel, Lehmsteinen und Lehmmauerwerk konnten zeigen, dass die Streuungen der Festigkeiten von Lehmbaustoffen aufgrund der industriellen Herstellung sehr gering sind. Es konnte festgestellt werden, dass eine Bemessung auf Grundlage des semiprobabilistischen Bemessungskonzeptes in Anlehnung an den konventionellen Mauerwerksbau möglich ist. Neben einem ersten Vorschlag des Teilsicherheitsbeiwertes für den Lastzustand Druck werden Vorschläge für Prüfvorschriften im Lehmbau beziehungsweise deren Modifikation unterbreitet und künftige Forschungsschwerpunkte herausgearbeitet.
