The massive accumulation of coal gangue (Waste from mining) harmed the environment and occupied land. Replacing aggregate with (CG) is an effective way to solve problem. purpose this paper expand utilization CG in construction cold area. Steel fiber (SF) used as enhancement method improve performance concrete (CGC). In addition, there are few researches on relationship between frost resistance age SFCGC materials, they mainly focus material level. Therefore, optimal mixture studied by orthogonal test. On basis, bearing capacity damage columns at different ages during freeze-thaw cycle (FTC) were investigated. Indicate that determined 35 % ceramsite (CGc), ceramic sand (CGs), 0.9 SF. ranking factors affecting mechanical properties analyzed SF content > CGc substitution rate CGs rate. And GM (1,4) strength prediction grey model established. can reach 125 FTCs, freeze-resistance diminishes curing shortens, loss compressive boosts increase FTCs (reached 61.9 FTC). Under identical conditions, column steel reinforcement exhibited more severe deterioration, culminating failure after 100 FTCs. laws patterns reinforced under obtained. established provide support for application engineering.

This research work aims to compare the strength and fracture mechanics properties of plain concretes, obtained from different coarse aggregates. During study, mechanical parameters including compressive (fcm) splitting tensile (fctm), as well involving critical stress intensity factor (KIcS) crack tip opening displacement (CTODc) were evaluated. The effect aggregates used on brittleness concretes was also analyzed. For better understanding initiation propagation in with aggregates, a macroscopic failure surfaces examination tested beams is presented. Crushed covered basalt (BA), granite (GT), limestone (LM), natural peeble gravel aggregate (GL) concrete mixtures. Fracture toughness tests performed an MTS 810 testing machine. Due high rock material, rough surface grains, good bonding ITZ area between paste, crushed exhibited toughness. Both analyzed parameters, i.e., KIcS CTODc, increased significantly case which manufactured They amounted, comparison based aggregate, levels ranging 20% for over 30% much 70% aggregate. On other hand, showed lowest because smooth grains poor cement paste. However, process each series quasi-plastic concrete, semi-brittle clearly brittle results help explain how type affects at bending.
