Abstract Reinforced concrete (RC) beams can be subjected to torsion, and failure due to torsion is brittle and poses a significant risk to occupants. Moreover, strengthening of existing RC beams in torsion may be required due to the upgrade of the structures or as part of structural rehabilitation.

Abstract Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), increasingly utilized in cement‐bound materials, offer improved material properties and enhanced sustainability due to their bio‐based origin. Nanosilica (NS), known for its high reactivity and refinement of cement microstructure, also significantly impacts cement performance.

Abstract A total of four reinforced concrete (RC) columns were tested to compare the structural capacities of RC columns produced by natural perlite aggregates and conventional concrete. The structural performance of the RC columns made from natural perlite aggregates was compared to conventional RC columns regarding the same concrete strength levels ...
