Cracking assessment in concrete structures by distributed optical fiber [PDF]
In this paper, a method to obtain crack initiation, location and width in concrete structures subjected to bending and instrumented with an optical backscattered reflectometer (OBR) system is proposed.

Reliability-based analysis of recycled aggregate concrete under carbonation [PDF]
Durability represents a crucial issue for evaluating safety and serviceability of reinforced concrete structures. Many studies have already focused on carbonation-induced corrosion of natural aggregate concrete (NAC) structures, leading to several ...

Recycled Concrete Aggregate for Medium-Quality Structural Concrete [PDF]
This paper reports an evaluation of the properties of medium-quality concrete incorporating recycled coarse aggregate (RCA). Concrete specimens were prepared with various percentages of the RCA (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%). The workability, mechanical properties, and durability in terms of abrasion of cured concrete were examined at different ages.

The use of artificial neural networks in adiabatic curves modeling [PDF]
Adiabatic hydration curves are the most suitable data for temperature calculations in concrete hardening structures. However, it is very difficult to predict the adiabatic hydration curve of an arbitrary concrete mixture.

Reachability analysis of first-order definable pushdown systems [PDF]
We study pushdown systems where control states, stack alphabet, and transition relation, instead of being finite, are first-order definable in a fixed countably-infinite structure.

Flexural strength of concrete prism strengthened using CFRP with modified mortar [PDF]
Reinforced concrete (RC) is a good durable material that commonly used in construction compared to others. However, reinforced concrete structures may be damaged and are suffering from various deteriorations because of overloading and an inadequacy of ...

Damage assessment of concrete structures exposed to fire [PDF]
During a fire, concrete structures behave in most cases very well. It could therefore be of economic interest to repair the damaged structures, as costs for demolition and rebuilding can be avoided and the building can be reused faster.

Tracking MEP installation works [PDF]
Recent research efforts to improve construction progress tracking has focused on employing emerging technologies such as three dimensional (3D) imaging, including digital photogrammetry and 3D Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS). Previous research has shown
