Company Location, Business Environment and Digital Maturity as Drivers of Environmental Innovation in Business

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental protection has emerged as a global priority in the contemporary context. As pivotal actors in the transition towards sustainable development, companies play a crucial role through the adoption of environmental innovations. This study investigates how organisational characteristics—specifically geographical location, business ...

Circular Economy Pathways for Airport Climate Change Mitigation

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Airport operators face growing climate‐change pressures; the circular economy offers pathways to reduce impacts and recover resources. We examine how airport operators apply the circular economy in practice. We use an exploratory qualitative multicase design based on practitioner‐generated documents (e.g., press releases and sustainability ...

Minimum Reinforcement in High‐Strength Concrete

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1990
A dimensional analysis criterion is proposed to compute the minimum amount of reinforcement for high‐strength concrete members in flexure. Such an amount is assumed to be provided by the condition of simultaneous first cracking aand steel yielding. The fracture mechanics model utilized defines a brittleness number NP, which is revealed to be a measure ...

Shrinkage of High-strength Concrete and High-flowability Concrete

HKIE Transactions, 2010
Throughout the years, a large amount of research on the shrinkage of normal concrete with cube compressive strength up to 60 MPa has been carried out. Relatively, the amount of research on the shrinkage of high-strength concrete and high-flowability concrete is not as much.

High Strength Concrete in the Precast Concrete Industry

PCI Journal, 1993
The precast concrete industry has, since its inception, been a recognized leader in the development and use of high strength concrete. Yet in recent years, whereas concrete strength in building applications has increased from 6000-8000 psi to 12,000-16,000 psi, there has not been a corresponding trend in the strength of precast concrete. As part of its

Fracture analysis of a high-strength concrete and a high-strength steel-fiber-reinforced concrete

Mechanics of Composite Materials, 2007
This paper addresses the use of R-curves to study the fracture behavior of high-strength concrete and steel-fiber-reinforced concrete subjected to crack ing in a three-point bending configuration. The R-curves are modeled through an effective approach based on the equations of linear-elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM), which relates the applied load to ...

Properties of High-Strength Concrete

Cement, Concrete, and Aggregates, 1986
Abstract This paper presents data related to the development of high-strength concrete with special emphasis on the development of high early strength. Both these objectives were achieved by using an ultrafine portland cement with a specific surface of about 750 m2/kg or a high early strength portland cement with about 75% tricalcium ...

Ultra High Strength Concrete

PCI Journal, 1967
A COMMISSION WAS ESTABLISHED ON METHODS OF ACHIEVING HIGH- STRENGTH CONCRETE TO FIND OUT WHETHER THE EFFECTIVE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE CAN BE SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASED SO THAT PRESTRESSED CONCRETE MAY BECOME NOT MERELY AN ECONOMIC STRUCTURAL MATERIAL OF ATTRACTIVE CHARACTERISTICS, BUT A MATERIAL OF HIGH SPECIFIC STRENGTH AS WELL.
