Reinforced Concrete Structure Composition Analysis after Electrochemical Chloride Extraction
Corrosion of reinforcing steel bar is one of the major reasons for the deterioration of reinforced concrete structures. Chloride permeation from deicing salts, seawater or other environmental causes is the primary reason for the corrosion ...

Abstract In practice, reinforced concrete (RC) wall‐like columns often have openings to facilitate building services, which creates stress concentrations around the opening, resulting in the weakening of their load‐carrying capacity. This study proposes innovative strengthening methods using near‐surface mounted (NSM) incorporating steel materials to ...

Abstract This study introduces an innovative approach to strengthening defected reinforced concrete (RC) columns using externally bonded stainless steel and galvanized steel plates. Unlike conventional strengthening methods, this technique replaces traditional transverse stirrups with steel sheets, providing enhanced confinement and ductility.

Biochar affects compressive strength of Portland cement composites: a meta-analysis
One strategy to reduce CO2 emissions from cement production is to reduce the amount of Portland cement produced by replacing it with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs).

Structural analysis of composite metakaolin-based geopolymer concrete
The study of alternative binders to Portland cement, such as geopolymer cements, offers the chance to develop materials with different properties. With this purpose, this study evaluated experimentally the mechanical behavior of a geopolymer concrete ...

Pre‐failure behavior of continuous post‐tensioned and post‐grouted beam in case of tendon failure
Abstract Grouted tendons are a common solution for long‐span bridge structures. The grout provides bond and corrosion protection for prestressing steel. However, if the grouting is defective, corrosion of the prestressing steel may initiate and eventually lead to tendon failure.

Ultrafine portland cement performance
By mixing several binder materials and additions with different degrees of fineness, the packing density of the final product may be improved. In this work, ultrafine cement and silica fume mixes were studied to optimize the properties of cement-based ...

Abstract Lightweight strain‐hardening ultra‐high‐performance concrete composite (SH‐UHPC) is an outstanding alternative for engineering applications and infrastructure thanks to its outstanding strength, toughness, ductility, and low density. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI)‐based modeling strategies into engineering problems can ...

Split‐disk testing of precast ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete tubes
Abstract Ultra‐high performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) has great potential for structural applications involving precast cylindrical shapes, including pipes, silos and stay‐in‐place forms for concrete columns. This study examines the performance of UHPFRC rings under internal pressure simulated using the split‐disk loading method, along ...
