Lightweight concrete containing recycled aggregates
This study investigated the replacement of fine concrete aggregates with recycled aggregate. The results showed that the effect of recycled aggregate, so that, replacing 25, 50, 75 and 100 % of natural aggregate led to an 8, 23, 15 and 11 %, respectively, increase in the compressive strength of lightweight concrete samples.

Influence of natural fibers on physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete
Abstract This study examined the influence of natural fibers on the physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete, in comparison with conventional polypropylene fibers used in cement composites. The fibers were characterized by FTIR and TGA/DSC to assess their composition and thermal stability, and FTIR was also performed after ...

Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls
Abstract In a context where durability concerns, particularly the corrosion of steel reinforcement, remain a critical challenge for conventional reinforced concrete structures under severe exposure, Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is emerging as a promising alternative.

Abstract In precast concrete structures, optimizing the design of corbels by considering the contributions of secondary reinforcement elements can significantly improve construction economy, especially when corbels are repeated multiple times. This paper proposes a strut‐and‐tie model for reinforced concrete corbels subjected to vertical and/or ...

Abstract Automating bridge inspections requires more than detecting individual damage instances. It demands systems capable of describing, contextualizing, and interpreting damage in an inspection‐relevant manner. Conventional computer vision approaches, such as object detection and segmentation, primarily address visual recognition tasks and are ...
