The Use of Modal Analysis in Addition Percentage Differentiation, and Mechanical Properties of Ordinary Concretes with the Addition of Fly Ash from Sewage Sludge

Abstract

Production cost reduction and constraints on natural resources cause the use of waste materials as substitutes of traditional raw materials to become increasingly important. The dynamic development of sewerage systems and sewage treatment plants leads to increases in the produced sewage sludge. According to the Waste Law, municipal sewage sludge can be used if it is properly stabilized. This process results in significant quantities of fly ash that must be utilized. This paper presents investigation results of partial cement replacement influence by the fly ash from sewage sludge on concrete parameters. The results confirm the possibility of fly ash waste applications as a cement substitute in concrete manufacturing. In the later parts of the publication, a pilot study was conducted using the modal analysis methodology and aimed at checking the hypothesis of whether vibration methods can be used in the assessment of the amount of the admixture used in concrete and the effect it has on concrete properties. This is the first time that vibration tests have been used to determine the diversity of the concrete mix composition and to distinguish the percentage of ash added. There are no studies using modal analysis to distinguish the composition of a concrete mix in the scientific literature. The article shows that the vibration test results show the differentiation of concrete composition and can be further improved as a method for determining the composition of mixtures and for distinguishing their mechanical properties. These are only pilot studies, which, in order to develop the target cognitive inference, should be performed in the future on a significantly enlarged number of the studied samples.

Ecological conditions for the implementation of the european modular systems in road transport

“…Road transport means are used for transporting heavy goods, oversized goods, sensitive goods, including goods with short shelf life, dangerous goods and others. The execution of this type of transport requires the appropriate adaptation of transport means (with regard to their construction, diagnostic susceptibility, operational parameters, ...), applying relevant legal regulations and possessing appropriately qualified employees for executing the transport [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

Analysis of Durability of Watertight Concretes Modified with the Addition of Fly Ash

“…In Jura et al [1], the possibility of using fly ash from the combustion of wood-sunflower biomass as a sand substitute for the production of concrete was analyzed. In turn, Rutkowska et al [2,3] analyzed the possibility of using fly ash from sewage sludge as an additive to ordinary concretes. Khatib et al [4] indicate that municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash can partially substitute fine aggregate.…”
