This paper discusses the possibility of developing a lightweight self-compacting concrete (SCC) with self-curing capabilities. In this regard, a supplementary cementitious material metakaolin, a presoaked lightweight expanded clay aggregate (LECA), and a chemical agent, superabsorbent polymer (SAP), were incorporated in developing a self-compacting self-curing concrete possessing a target strength of 60 MPa through experimental investigations, and the results are reported. The research includes an analysis of basic material properties of constituent materials including fresh properties of concrete and mechanical properties such as compressive and splitting tensile strength. It was inferred from the experimental results that utilization of self-curing agents in SCC has enhanced the mechanical properties when compared with conventional SCC mix. In particular, a combination of 0.3% SAP and 15% LECA gave the optimum strength values. The optimum usage limit of both the materials is presented in this study, and the results prove that SCC can be used as an alternate resource without disturbing the natural resources.

“…The main advantages of FW are its capability to join non-weldable material alloys to create high-grade welds, low cost and improved joint strength. This process involves a machine with suitable modifications that translate mechanical energy into heat energy without the application of electrical power that is used to weld using relative movement between workpieces [3]. FWTPET [4] of asymmetrical shape becomes a breakthrough in the year 2006.…”

In this study, Friction Welding of Tube to tube-Plate using an External Tool (FWTPET) is carried out by joining SA213 tube and SA387 tube plate alloying materials using an external tungsten tool by close fit methods in absence of backing plate without hole on the circumference of the tube for superior mechanical and metallurgical properties. The optimization techniques such as Taguchi L9 and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is used to endorse the capital joint strength. The output parameter (TS) and input factors (tool rotational speed, tube projections, depth of cut) are designated for the study. The heat that produces from tool pin, dissipates to the tube and the tube plate during FWTPET process. The grain size measurement, x-ray diffraction (XRD) phase analysis, radiography test is carried out after FWTPET process. In this research work, FWTPET process is carried without hole on the circumference of the tube, further FWTPET process is also compared by without employing supporting arrangement. Excellent joint strength of 762.2 MPa is achieved with the absence of supporting specimen which without hole on the circumference of tube for the tool rotational speed of 1300rpm. Keywords: Friction welding, FWTPET, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Optimization techniques, Tensile strength

“…The improvement of the FWTPET process such as different tube diameter, tube preparation has been presented by Kumaran et al [11,12]. The Cu tube to Al tube plate has been used to weld satisfactory joint strength for FWTPET process by Kumaran et al [13]. The environment effect on global warming has been forcing the manufacturing process to be eco-friendly so as to deliver the product with lesser impact on the environment, energy consumption and other resource consumption.…”

Friction welding of tube to tube plate using an external tool (FWTPET) is a relatively newer solid state welding process used for joining tube to tube plate of either similar or dissimilar materials with enhanced mechanical and metallurgical properties. In the present study, FWTPET has been used to weld SA 213 (Grade T12) tube with SA 387 (Grade 22) tube plate. The welded samples are found to have satisfactory joint strength and the Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) study showed that inter metallic compound is absent in the weld zone. The different weld joints have been identified and the phase composition is found using EDX and XRD. Microstructures have been analyzed using optical and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mechanical properties such as hardness, compressive shear strength and peel test for different weld conditions are studied and the hardness survey revealed that there is increase in hardness at the weld interface due to grain refinement. The corrosion behavior for different weld conditions have been analyzed and the weld zone is found to have better corrosion resistance due to the influence of the grain refinement after FWTPET welding process. Hence, the present investigation is carried out to study the behavior of friction welded dissimilar joints of SA 213 tube and SA 387 tube plate joints and the results are presented. The present study confirms that a high quality tube to tube plate joint can be achieved using FWTPET process at 1120 rpm.
