Structural testing and analytical model of Reinforced Concrete (RC) prisms with 3D‐printed concrete permanent formwork under compressive loading

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The implementation of traditional steel reinforcement in 3D concrete printed structures is a major challenge. Although 3D‐printed structures may be used as formwork, the knowledge about their structural contribution is limited. This research aims to experimentally evaluate the structural performance of reinforced concrete prisms with 3D ...
