Abstract

Heavy weight concrete is used for construction of shelters to provide protection against blast effects of nuclear bursts. In this study Ilmenite is used as coarse aggregate, serpentine is used as fine aggregate and normal Portland cement. Different concrete mixes were designed, produced, cured and tested for compressive, tensile, flexural strengths, ultrasonic and bulk weight. Admixtures were employed to improve the mechanical properties. The results showed that the ilmenite-serpentine heavy weight concrete (ISHWC) has good mechnaical properties for construction of antinuclear shelters.
