Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
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.

Testing and modeling reinforced 3D concrete printing

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) provides several advantages, including construction productivity and sustainability, although the presence of cold joints reduces structural performance, particularly in zones subjected to tensile stresses. In addition, it is difficult to reinforce 3DCP structures with conventional steel rebars, generally used to ...

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

Serviceability reserves of historic reinforced concrete slabs implications for structural reuse

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition to a circular economy in the construction sector requires reliable methods to assess whether existing reinforced concrete elements can be reused in new load‐bearing structures. A central question is whether slabs designed according to historical standards also meet today's serviceability requirements.

Evaluating structural resistance and updating modeling uncertainties through testing

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The aging of infrastructure necessitates a robust and rational methodology for the assessment of existing structures. Design codes provide general models which cover different design scenarios and are thus overly conservative. Also, such design approaches lack field data and, if applied directly to existing works, often lead to unnecessarily ...
