Concrete damage plasticity (CDP) material model is a constitutive material model used to describe the behaviour of reinforced concrete under stress. This model is particularly useful for simulating the response of concrete structures subjected to a wide range of loading conditions. These studies aim to develop the CDP material modelling for green c...

Energy saving is one of the challenges of today. In recent years, growing concerns about the environmental impacts of energy consumption and global warming has doubled the importance of this issue. This study has outlined five energy saving actions as proposed to decrease the office building energy consumption. The proposed energy saving actions wa...

As issues on sustainable construction material gains prominence in Malaysia, experimental work to investigate the combination of agricultural and construction waste material into a single concrete mixture was conducted. These waste materials will partially replace cement and aggregate content with added Palm Oil Fibre (POF) involving twenty-four cu...

Precast Self-Compacting Concrete (PSCC) is one of many types of approach in Industrialised Building System (IBS) that were used to speed up construction to meet consumer’s demand. The usage of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) will profit in many ways such as faster construction, reduction in manpower, easier placing, uniform and complete consolidatio...

This paper presents the finite element analysis (FEA) study of Green Concrete Hollow Block (GCH block) system. The designed system is the new approach for Malaysia construction industry to replacing the traditionally construction system. The blocks are interconnected through tongue and groove besides 20 mm protrusion provided for the self-alignment...

The demand for a sustainable concrete has increasing due to the effect of conventional concrete that led to many environmental problems such as carbon dioxide emission and depletion of natural resources. Hence, this paper discusses about the usage of ternary binder in recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). Ternary binder was developed from combination...

The increase in agricultural waste has been one of the main concerns today. Usually, the excessive waste is dumped in the landfill without any consideration to the environment. Previous research has found that waste containing highly reactive silica can react with calcium hydroxide in concrete resulting in a compact concrete microstructure. Hence,...

Massive migration and increasing population in Malaysia has contributed to the increasing demand of quality and affordable housing. Over the past 50 years, the Malaysian housing industry has seen the growth of using conventional construction system such as reinforced concrete frame structures and bricks. The conventional system, as agreed by many r...

Green Concrete (GC) is defined as a concrete that utilize a waste material for at least one of its component. The production of GC has been increasing due to the drawback of conventional concrete that create many environmental problems. In Malaysia, the amount of waste generates from agricultural and construction industries were increasing every ye...

The purpose of this case study is to review the effect and contribution of CFRP laminates on shear strengthening and repair of reinforced concrete beams. To date, the method is yet to become a mainstream application due to number of economical and design related issues. The current experimental work consists of one control beam and four beams wrapp...
