In this paper, a comparative study on the initial shear strength of
masonry with earth mortars is presented. Triplet tests were carried out to characterise the shear bond strength of five different types of earth mortar, three purely mineral and two with vegetable additives (wood and straw chaff), using calcium silicate blocks. In spite of their lower bulk densities, mortars with chaffs reached a value of compressive strength comparable to the values shown by the purely mineral mortars. The characteristic initial shear strengths of all the tested earth mortars were between two and five times higher than the minimum values for initial shear strengths required by standards.
To assess the influence of blocks pre-wetting, a comparison between calcium silicate blocks and earth blocks was performed to evaluate the results obtained from the standard test procedure compared to the more common practice of using earth mortars in combination with earthen blocks.
The main aim of the research was the development of a first valid database for material parameters of earth block masonry (EBM) with particular regard to statistical characteristics. A solid database is needed for the determination of the materials partial safety factor. Therefore, compressive strength tests were carried out with two types of earth blocks and two types of prefabricated earth mortar.
The evaluation has shown that the mean variation of the compressive strength was remarkably less than expected, which indicates high quality standards of the components earth block and mortar with regard to industrial production. Using the reliability method, a partial safety factor for EBM subjected to compression was determined on the basis of these test results. The findings have shown that a common calculation method for EBM based on partial safety factors following the valid masonry construction standard is feasible.
Beton ist als Massenbaustoff vielseitig einsetzbar. Eine der neuesten Entwicklungen ist Ultrahochleistungsbeton (UHPC). Seine besonderen Eigenschaften ermöglichen eine zusätzliche Funktionalisierung der Oberflächen, da annähernd beliebige Mikrostrukturen exakt abgeformt werden können. So lassen sich beispielsweise Fassadenelemente aus UHPC bereits bei ihrer Herstellung im Betonfertigteilwerk mit selbstreinigenden Oberflächen ausrüsten. Eine andere Möglichkeit ist eine Anwendung als Datenspeicher. Wie das Beispiel der Schallplatte aus UHPC zeigt, lassen sich Muster, die hier die Schallinformationen enthalten, exakt von einer Matrize kopieren.
