Durability performance of a high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete for bridge applications

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates the durability performance of a coarse‐aggregate high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (HPFRC) developed as a cost‐efficient material solution for precast bridge applications. A comprehensive experimental program was conducted to assess the resistance of the material to the principal deterioration mechanisms ...

Mechanical, rheological, and durability performances of GGBS‐based concrete for potential application to prestressed structures

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Ground granulated blast‐furnace slag (GGBS) is a widely used clinker substitute in concrete, recognized for its potential to significantly reduce environmental impacts. However, its application in prestressed concrete remains limited in several countries, mainly due to concerns regarding early‐age mechanical performance and long‐term ...

Achieving sustainable and durable concrete using high‐volume SiO2: Engineering properties, environmental and economic benefits

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores the potential of high‐volume amorphous silica (SiO2) replacement for ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in concrete to reduce carbon emissions. Amorphous SiO2, such as silica fume (SF) and CO2 mineralization‐produced Si‐rich gel, offers superior properties to concrete but is under‐researched for its use in concrete with high ...

Research on the Retrieval Method of Similar Blast Furnace Profile Based on Multilayer Dynamic Index

open access: yes工程科学与技术, 2010
:Aiming to the problems that design data is huge, the range of rational blast furnace profile is wide, and the limit is fuzzy, the method to generate the design primal scheme for blast furnace profile is proposed based on case-based reasoning approach ...

Quantifying the embodied‐carbon premium of RC transfer beams via automated design

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Transfer structures in reinforced concrete (RC) buildings enable architectural flexibility but often increase material use and embodied carbon. This study introduces an automated framework to quantify the embodied‐carbon premium associated with such systems. For each parametric configuration, two equivalent RC frames—one regular and one with a

Surface Rights: Sovereignty, Citizenship and the Question of Mineral Rights in the Woodward Commission

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article retraces the Woodward Commission on Aboriginal Land Rights in the Northern Territory, focusing on the question of mineral rights. Mineral rights were assumed in the Commission's terms of reference and expected by many Aboriginal people. Why, then, were they not recommended by the Commission?
