Large‐scale tests of 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete bridge girders

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract An experimental investigation has been carried out as part of the BRIDGE|50 research project, focusing on large‐scale loading tests performed on five 50‐year‐old prestressed concrete (PC) girders. The study aimed at evaluating the structural response of five girders retrieved from a viaduct in the urban area of Turin, Italy, subjected to 4 ...

Carbon curing of concrete: process overview and concrete properties

open access: yesProceedings of 10th Symposium on Doctoral Studies in Civil Engineering
In response to the pressing problem of climate change caused by high greenhouse gas emissions from industrial processes, the European Union has set itself ambitious targets with the European Green Deal to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The cement industry alone is responsible for 5 to 7 % of these emissions.

Punching shear of unbonded post‐tensioned steel fiber reinforced concrete slabs: The fiber contribution

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) enhances the flexural capacity of flat slabs and, due to its effectiveness in statically redundant bi‐dimensional elements, represents a viable alternative to conventional reinforcement. Although numerous studies have investigated the flexural behavior of SFRC slabs with and without bonded reinforcement ...

From section to structure: Assessing the impact of localized corrosion on reinforced concrete beams

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The structural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) elements affected by localized corrosion represents a major challenge for ensuring structural safety and for the proper design of strengthening interventions. The effects of localized corrosion on the flexural behavior of RC beams remain a topic of debate within the scientific community.
