Enhancing printability of 3D printed concrete by using metakaolin and silica fume

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the effects of incorporating metakaolin (MK) and silica fume (SF) on the fresh and hardened properties of 3D printed concrete (3DPC). Five mix designs were prepared with MK replacement levels of 0%, 10%, 12.5%, and 15%, along with one mix containing 10% MK and 5% SF.

Steel fiber reinforced concrete with different recycled aggregates—In‐depth experimental investigation of fresh and hardened properties

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The substitution of natural aggregates in concrete with recycled aggregates from construction waste makes ecological sense, is politically desired, and is increasingly being incorporated into technical regulations. Recycled concrete (RC) aggregates are also increasingly used for steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) in the future. However, it

Seasonal trends of sand fly abundance and Leishmania infection: The case of Bologna province, Italy (2016–2023)

One Health
Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne disease, caused by Leishmania parasites, transmitted by phlebotomine sand flies. Recently, shifts in its geographic distribution have been observed across Europe, including Italy, with climate changes believed to influence

Machine learning approach for the flexural strength of 3D‐printed fiber‐reinforced concrete based on the meta‐heuristic algorithm

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The increasing demand for concrete in construction presents challenges such as pollution, high energy consumption, and complex structural requirements. Three‐dimensional printing (3DP) offers a promising solution by eliminating formwork, reducing waste, and enabling intricate geometries.
