This work deals with issues aimed at the possibility of treating the material which has not been used yet – coal tailings. The work includes among others the production, its optimalization and utilization of a new type of lightweight artificial aggregate in the process of production of concrete. The possibility of manufactured the artificial aggregate is dealt with the principle of self-burning of the raw material's batch at the agglomerative grate. The optimalization of the burning process was performed both with the homogenous and the layered batch. Further part of the work focuses on the fabrication of diverse types of concrete and determination of their parametres. This section is significantly extended with the comparison of basic physical and specific properities of the new type of concrete with those of the commonly produced types. The last part of presented work deals with the ecological - economic situation of these issues. The proposed solution points to the possibility of utilization of the coal tailings which are put to the tailings heaps. It was managed to optimize the burning process and to find the most convenient system for storing the raw material's batch at the agglomerative grate. Next, it was proved that the types of concrete produced with a new sort of aggregate are also suitable for fabricating the construction concrete with the strength above the border of 50 MPa, which are applicable even in harder conditions. These sorts of concrete also have a lower volume weight and very good bending properties. The major finding, which underlines the contribution of this work, is that the up to now unused material is suitable for fabrication of relatively high-quality and thermally stable aggregate of strength on the border of 5 MPa, which can be use for fabricating concrete with very good results even in this field. Another great contribution of this work can surely be the fact, that a preliminary economic balance of the manufacturing pr

Study of concrete properties with nanoparticles
Michnová, Kamila ; Hela, Rudolf (referee) ; Bodnárová, Lenka (advisor)
This diploma thesis discusses the basics of nanotechnology as a science and nanotechnology of concrete. Additionally, it describes carbon nanotubes and the possibilities of their dispersion using high shear mixing and sonication. This thesis further provides findings about ultrasonic dispersion parameters and characteristics of materials with the addition of carbon nanotubes. The experimental of part of this thesis focuses on the possibility of dispersing carbon nanotubes, deals with the issue of incorporating carbon nanotubes into the concrete matrix and describes its effects on the final properties of concrete. It has been observed to which extent the carbon nanotubes may affect selected physico-mechanical properties and durability of concrete.

The effect of fibres addition on the properties of brick body
Novotný, David ; Stančík,, Hynek (referee) ; Sokolář, Radomír (advisor)
This diploma thesis will discuss possibilities of using inorganic fibers to improve the mechanical properties of the resulting physical body bricks. Assessment of the effect of fiber length, fiber thickness is in the order of micrometers. In this work we were used fibers which are commercially produced for the purpose of reinforcement, but also waste fibers, which mainly serves as an insulator.

Silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) - Properties of wood and the use of forestry and timber
Horáček, Petr
Silver fir is considered as one of the most important coniferous trees for industrial processing\nin addition to Norway spruce. Its economic importance is unquestionable. Wood properties of\nsilver fir are similar to spruce one, the utilization of both wood species corresponds as well.\nBesides an economic effect, the fir also fulfils ecological functions and therefore it belongs to\nthe ameliorative and stabilising tree species. The paper describes the structure, properties and\nutilization of fir both in the timber industry and forestry. It assesses the stabilization effect of\ntree species including fir based on mechanical properties of green wood and material indices.

Resistance of Sintered Carbides against Thermal Crack Spreading
Smrž, Peter ; Plíšek, Jiří (referee) ; Kouřil, Karel (advisor)
This thesis aims to compare the relationship of physical-mechanical properties of tool materials made of WC-Co sintered carbides with their resistance to initiation and propagation of thermal cracks. The paper presents the results of testing the basic physical-mechanical properties of the three samples sintered carbides with different percentage of Co binder. Next, this thesis describes the progress and results of quench experiment and cutting tests using, which was described resistance of the tested samples to thermal and mechanical shock, depending on the values of physical-mechanical properties.
