Carbonate vs siliceous aggregate Concrete Engineering

·Carbonate or Calcareous aggregates are generally white to tan in color sometimes porous essentially amorphous and are softer than siliceous aggregates Siliceous aggregates may be any color or mottled such as granite are hard and non porous They can show distinct cleavage Carbonate aggregates are generally from sedimentary rock formations


Small strain dynamic properties of siliceous carbonate sand

·The investigations presented in this paper include 1 experimental study on shear modulus G and damping ratio D of Bushehr siliceous carbonate sand under various stress density states 2


The behavior of a carbonate sand subjected to a wide strain

·Carbonate sands comprise typical foundation soils for offshore engineering structures such as oil platforms found in natural deposits These sands have a high shear strength but also very high compressibility which characteristics are due to the shape and the low tensile strength of the grains For the seismic design of offshore structures two key properties


Interpretation of centrifuge CPT data in normally

·This paper presents the results from a systematic investigation into the effects of stress level penetrometer diameter penetration depth and relative density on the end resistance qc measured in centrifuge scale cone penetration tests CPTs in a variety of normally consolidated siliceous and carbonate sands Simple empirical formulations are developed that


The study of dynamic properties of carbonate sand through

·Carbonate soils are located in temperate and tropical regions of the earth This kind of soil has special mechanical properties compared with siliceous sand due to special sedimentary environment


On compression behavior and particle breakage of carbonate silty sands

·The primary objective of this paper is to investigate the compression behavior of silty sands of carbonate sediments which are typical carbonate soils but still rarely studied in the literature Nevertheless quite a few studies on the clean carbonate sands can still be found in the past few decades in terms of the mechanical and particle


Crushability and compressibility of carbonate and

·Keywords Carbonate sand · Compressibility · Crushability · Oedometer · Siliceous sand Introduction Crushing in sand particles has been a topic of interest from both a geotechnical and geological standpoint Crushing of sand particles changes the sand s grain size distribu tion which is in turn reected in the matrix pore size dis


Stiffness degradation and damping of carbonate and silica sands

·For ease of comparison the dynamic shear modulus ratio reference range bands of the silica sand obtained by Seed and Idriss et al [41] and Rollins et al [42] the siliceous carbonate sand


Dynamic shear stiffness and damping ratio of marine

·The remolded specimens of the calcareous and siliceous sands for both cyclic triaxial and resonant column tests were prepared using the air pluviation method as employed by Jafarian et al 2012 and Javdanian 2017b in five layers to resemble the under compaction technique recommended by Ladd In fact the layers were placed in a way that the lower


Strain dependent dynamic properties of Bushehr siliceous carbonate sand

·The investigations presented in this paper include 1 experimental study on shear modulus G and damping ratio D of Bushehr siliceous carbonate sand under various stress density states 2
