“…In addition, we propose a method for finding F a based on the results of acoustic tests. A similar method is widely used for determining the strength characteristics of concrete by acoustic testing [48,49]. This method is standardized [50] and is based on finding R c = f (V p ) using standard samples, where R c is the compressive strength of concrete, and V p is the propagation velocity of the longitudinal wave.…”

About 60% of the territory of the Russian Federation is covered by permafrost. Additionally, a large share of the country’s mineral and hydrocarbon deposits are located in the Arctic. Climate change that has been happening over the past few decades has had a serious impact on the conditions in which permafrost soils are found. Changes in temperatures in permafrost regions, along with the human impact from mining and processing, have led to an increase in accidents caused by the degradation of permafrost foundations. In this situation, timely detection of the degradation of permafrost foundations plays a pivotal role in ensuring the safe operation of buildings and structures. This article contains a theoretical review and describes the results of an experimental study of whether it is possible to use acoustic testing in solving problems associated with monitoring the state of permafrost foundations. In the course of the study, the relationships between the acoustic characteristics and the deformation and strength characteristics of permafrost soils were analysed. The results of the study made it possible to draw a preliminary conclusion that acoustic testing can be used to solve problems associated with condition monitoring of permafrost foundations.

China possesses abundant pumice resources and thereby makes the utilization of pumice in the preparation of pumice aggregate concrete (PAC) a significant strategy for environmental protection and resource conservation. To obtain the effect of pumice pore structure variation on the compressive strength of PAC, PACs with strength classes LC20, LC30, and LC40 were prepared. Moreover, the pore structure of PAC was characterized using nuclear magnetic resonance to investigate the effect of pore structure variation on the compressive strength of PAC. Results showed that the higher the coarse aggregate content of PAC, the higher the percentage of large capillary and non-capillary pore sizes of PAC, corresponding to higher porosity and lower compressive strength. The hydration products in PAC continuously fill in the pore structure, the proportion of large capillary pores and non-capillary pore size gradually decreases, the proportion of small capillary pores and medium capillary pore size gradually increases, the pumice concrete matrix gradually becomes dense, and the compressive strength increases. The prediction model of the pore structure and compressive strength is established based on gray theory, and the relative error between predicted and tested values is not significant, which can effectively predict its compressive strength. It provides effective guidance for the engineering practical application of PAC.
