Parameter Fitting Results for Waste Glass and Rice Husk Concrete

Parameter fitting results from a study on low-carbon concrete incorporating glass sand, glass powder, and rice husk ash. The dataset, shared by Jiayuan Lou on figshare in April 2026, likely contains experimental data on workability, mechanical properties, and durability under varying silicon-to-calcium (Si/Ca) ratios. The file is 9.5 KB in size.

Use Cases

• Modeling the nonlinear shear damage response of concrete based on the developed constitutive model mentioned in the description
• Optimizing the Si/Ca ratio for concrete strength and durability based on the described experimental results
• Analyzing the relationship between microstructure (C-S-H gel) and macro-properties based on the described mechanisms
• Comparing the resistance to water penetration, sulfate attack, and carbonation across different waste material mixes

Strengths

• Includes specific performance metrics, such as a 0.54% mass loss rate after 180 drying-wetting cycles and a 2.6% ultrasonic velocity reduction
• Defines an optimal Si/Ca ratio range of 0.46 to 0.58 for overall concrete strength
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• The dataset is very small (9.5 KB), indicating limited scope or a highly focused subset of results
