Monitoring of historical structural materials with computed tomography
Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is an excellent tool to solve certain engineering problems connected to material science (such as sulfate swelling, internal degradation due to freezing, and alkali silicate swelling) and to understand specific processes (frost peeling, acid action).

Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis
Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.

Numerical analysis of debonding behavior of FRP sheets bonded to concrete focusing on mortar skin
Abstract This paper proposes a novel simple method for finite element analysis (FEA) to simulate the debonding behavior of fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets bonded to concrete. This study focuses on the mortar skin of the concrete surface layer, which fails during FRP sheet debonding.

Combined effects of water film thickness and paste film thickness on rheology of mortar [PDF]
In the mortar portion of a concrete mix, the water must be more than sufficient to fill the voids between the solid particles of cement and fine aggregate whereas the paste volume must be more than sufficient to fill the voids between the solid particles

Masonry mortars are assessed on the basis of tests on specimens prepared and cured in the laboratory. Curing procedures differ depending on the relative amounts of cement and lime in the mortar, and the relation between the end result and that attained in the field, where no concession is made for the composition of the mortar, is often questioned ...
