In this study, a Gaussian process regression (GPR) model as well as six GPR-based metaheuristic optimization models, including GPR-PSO, GPR-GWO, GPR-MVO, GPR-MFO, GPR-SCA, and GPR-SSO, were developed to predict fly-rock distance in the blasting operation of open pit mines. These models included GPR-SCA, GPR-SSO, GPR-MVO, and GPR. In the models that were obtained from the Soungun copper mine in Iran, a total of 300 datasets were used. These datasets included six input parameters and one output parameter (fly-rock). In order to conduct the assessment of the prediction outcomes, many statistical evaluation indices were used. In the end, it was determined that the performance prediction of the ML models to predict the fly-rock from high to low is GPR-PSO, GPR-GWO, GPR-MVO, GPR-MFO, GPR-SCA, GPR-SSO, and GPR with ranking scores of 66, 60, 54, 46, 43, 38, and 30 (for 5-fold method), respectively. These scores correspond in conclusion, the GPR-PSO model generated the most accurate findings, hence it was suggested that this model be used to forecast the fly-rock. In addition, the mutual information test, also known as MIT, was used in order to investigate the influence that each input parameter had on the fly-rock. In the end, it was determined that the stemming (T) parameter was the most effective of all the parameters on the fly-rock.

Fusion and characterization of bisphenol-A diglycidyl ether based thermosetting polymer mortars containing an epoxy resin, Fly ash and Rock sand are presented here for the Experimental study. The specimens have been prepared by means of an innovative process, in mild conditions, of commercial epoxy resin, Fly ash and Rock sand based paste. In this way, thermosetting based hybrid mortars characterized by a different content of normalized Fly ash and Rock sand by a homogeneous dispersion of the resin have been obtained. Once hardened, these new composite materials show improved compressive strength and toughness in respect to both the Fly ash and the Rock sand pastes since the Resin provides a more cohesive microstructure, with a reduced amount of micro cracks. The micro structural characterization allows pointing out the presence of an Interfacial Transition Zone similar to that observed in cement based mortars. A correlation between micro-structural features and mechanical properties of the mortar has also been studied.

Blasting operations associated with rock excavation work may have an environmental impact in nearby structures or human beings. With the increase of construction work in urban areas, vibration problems and complaints have also increased. In order to determine the optimum design parameters for safe blast, it is essential to understand blast mechanism, design variables involved in blast-induced damage, and their effects on the blasting results. This paper deals with the characteristics of ground vibrations, air blast and fly rock caused by blast, including the general method of establishing the vibration predictors, and damage criteria suggested by various investigators. The results of field measurements from open pit mine and tunnel construction work are discussed. Basic concepts of how to design blast parameters to control the generation of ground vibrations, air blast and fly rock are presented.

The effect of fly ash to prevent detrimental expansion due to alkali -silica reaction was investigated through the ASTM C 1260 method that is one of the most commonly used method because results can be obtained within about 16 days. Reactive aggregate used is a netamorphic rock and sedimentary rock. The replacement proportions of portland cement by fly ash were respectively 0, 5, 10, 15, 25 and 35 percent. Expansion of mortar bars due to alkali-silica reaction decreased with the increase of fly ash content. The results show that the expansion due to alkali-silica reaction is dramatically reduced in the presence of high volume fly ash. When the fly ash content examine from all angles (strength and a flow), the replacement proportions of fly ash is about $25\%$ in order to control on expansion.

이 논문은 표면 차수벽형 석괴댐(Concrete-Faced Rock-Filled Dam) 콘크리트의 내구성능 개선에 관한 것이다. 댐은 영구 구조물이며 그 중요성을 감안할 때 충분한 내구성능이 확보되어야 한다. 이 논문에서는 플라이애시와 PVA 섬유를 혼입함으로써 차수벽 콘크리트의 내구성능을 개선하고자 하였으며, 플라이애시와 PVA 섬유 혼입율에 따른 내구성능 향상 검증을 위하여 기본물성 (강도, 소성수축, 자기수축)을 포함한 내구성능 검증 실험(염소이온 침투, 마모 저항성, 동결융해 저항성)을 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 플라이애시 15%와 PVA 섬유 0.1%를 혼입하였을 때 내구성능 개선 효과가 뛰어난 것으로 나타났다. 검증된 차수벽 콘크리트의 현장 적용을 통해 표면 차수벽형 석괴댐의 안전성 및 내구성 개선에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

With the increasing demand in the production of concrete, there is a need for adopting a feasible, economical and sustainable technique to fulfill practical requirements. Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is one such technique which addresses the concrete industry in providing eco-friendly and cost effective concrete. The objective of the present study is to develop a mix design for SCC with Crushed Rock Fines (CRF) as fine aggregate based on the plastic viscosity of the mix and validate the same for its fresh and hardened properties. Effect of plastic viscosity on the fresh and hardened properties of SCC is also addressed in the present study. SCC mixes are made with binary and ternary blends of Fly Ash (FA) and Ground Granulated Blast Slag (GGBS) with varying percentages as a partial replacement to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). The proposed mix design is validated successfully with the experimental investigations. The results obtained, indicated that the fresh properties are best achieved for SCC mix with ternary blend followed by binary blend with GGBS, Fly Ash and mix with pure OPC. It is also observed that the replacement of sand with 100% CRF resulted in a workable and cohesive mix.

현재 터널 굴착시 기초 지보수단으로 활용되고 있는 숏크리트는 암반의 굴착 특성상 조기에 얇은 두께로 타설하여도 높은 강도를 유지할 수 있다는 장점 때문에 그동안 우수한 장비와 재료가 개발되어 비약적인 발전을 거듭해 오고 있다. 또한, 계측기술의 발달로 지하암반 거동상태도 조기에 자세히 파악되어 강도와 두께 등 거의 정확한 설계가 이루어지고 있으며, 신소재의 보강재료도 지속적으로 개발되고 있다. 국내 석탄 화력발전소에서 발생되는 석탄회에는 fly ash와 bottom ash가 있으며, 이러한 석탄회는 시멘트, 골재, 건축, 토목 및 농수산 분야에 이르기까지 많은 분야에 기술개발이 되었으며, 연구가 활발히 진행 중에 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 fly ash를 혼합한 콘크리트를 숏크리트 재료로서 활용하기 위해 기존의 숏크리트 배합설계에서 fly ash를 시멘트의 대체재로서 사용할 때, 압축강도의 향상 및 굴착면의 타설 리바운드 율을 저하시키는 최적의 함량에 대하여 실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과, fly ash를 시멘트에 15% 중량 치환했을 때, 약 10%의 압축강도의 향상과 리바운드 율이 6%감소되었다.

The lining concrete of water tunnel is a structure that is constructed to prevent from corroding of the rock around tunnel and reduce the deterioration of geology by flowing water, and to improve the durability of tunnel, which must not only economy, stability but also satisfy the engeneering properties of concrete. This is an experimental study to analyze th usability of fly in the tunnel lining concrete. For this purpose, after select the mix proportion of plain concrete and concrete using fly ash(the replacement of 15 and 30% by weight of cement) to satisfy slump, air content and compressive strength through the mix design, the test of slump, setting time, compressive strength, tensile strength, drying shrinkage and adiabatic temperature rise was performed. According to test results, it was found that FA 15 concrete was more effective than the others to reduce drying shrinkage as well satisfy other engineering properties.
