In this article, the flexural strength of combined aggregate concrete with four kinds of water-cement ratio (0.3,0.35.0.4, 0.45), and six ceramsite replace rate (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 60%) are studied with comprehensive test method. Experiment shows that the ceramsite replace rate of combined aggregate has greater influence on the flexural strength than the water-cement ratio. The flexural strength increases with the increasing of compressive strength, and the formula of the flexural strength and compressive strength of combined aggregate concrete is given.

In this study, crumb rubber was used to partially replaced fine aggregate in mortar mixture by 5, 10, 15 and 20 volume percentage (vol%) with untreated and NaOH-treated crumb rubber. There were three (3) different water-cement ratio used which are 0.45, 0.50 and 0.55. Thus, the total number of mixtures was 27. The mortars were tested for flowability, compressive strength, flexural strength and density. Based on the results, higher water cement ratio and percentage of crumb rubber replacement increased the flowability but lowered the density, compressive strength and flexural strength of the rubberized mortar. It was also discovered that the significant effect of water-cement ratio on the fresh and hardened properties of the rubberized mortar was due to the water content in the mixture. Meanwhile, the use of NaOH as treatment to crumb rubber improved the flowability, compressive strength and flexural strength of the rubberized mortar.

The experiment studies how the freeze-thaw cycles influence concrete compressive strength and elasticity modulus with different water-cement ratio under the air-entraining agent and zero of that value respectively. It can be found that modulus of elasticity and compressive strength of the concrete specimen reduced significantly when there is air-entraining agent; the durability of freeze-thaw resistance, however, makes great improvement; as the cement increases, both of them improves effectively. Through the comparison of concrete compressive strength and elastic modulus with different water-cement ratio and air-entraining agent, the optimal water-cement ratio and air-entraining agent were determined. The results of experiment can be used in concrete engineering design in severe cold area.

The effect of water-cement ratio, air content, silica fume and sand ratio of concrete on the coefficient of linear expansion(CLE) was studied by orthogonal experiment. The results show that under a certain amount of cement material, CLE of concrete increase as the water-cement ratio increases and the effect of water-cement ratio on CLE of concrete is remarkable; with the increase of blending ratio of silica fume, the CLE of concrete increases; the CLE of concrete reduces with 3.5% air content in concrete, but rebound with 6% air content in concrete; with the sand rate increases, CLE of concrete increases; CLE per unit compressive strength of concrete with silica fume decreases with increase of silica fume content; CLE per unit compressive strength of concrete with air content increase when air content increase.

In this paper, the splitting tensile strength experiments of recycled sintered brick-tile concrete with different water-cement ratio, sand rate and water quantity were carried out, and the change law of splitting tensile strength with above three factors was acquired and failure patterns of the samples were analyzed. The results showed that the effects of sand rate and water quantity were not clear, while water-cement ratio was relatively significant and the splitting tensile strength was inversely proportional relationship with it. And the relation between the splitting tensile strength and the cubic compressive strength was summarized from the results.

Influence of replacement ratio and water-cement ratio on the recycled concrete mechanical properties were analyzed by testing the compressive strength and tensile strength of the recycled concrete. Results show that the mechanical properties of recycled concrete, compared with common concrete, can meet the requirements of the project. Water-cement ratio has great influence on compressive strength and tensile strength, replacement ratio has obvious influence on compressive strength but little on tensile.

This paper suggests that deposition paste area is one of those leading control indicators of mix proportion design for the macroporous ecological concrete without sand. By analyzing the effect of water-cement ratio, amount of cement, and type of coarse aggregates on application properties of concrete, it puts forward that when carrying out the mix proportion design of the concrete, setting the water-cement ratio as 0.4 can help the macroporous ecological concrete without sand acquire satisfying application properties. Based on this idea, experiments to the later period strengths and the erosion resistance property of concretes are tried out. Finally, the result of this series of experiments shows that the macroporous ecological concrete without sand possesses necessary conditions for plants to survive and grow up.
