Shear Behavior of Self Compacting Concrete
Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2012 Twelve self compacting concrete (SCC) beams were cast to investigate the shear behavior under two concentrated load. All beams have a constant longitudinal steel ratio of (0.02065) and constant gross section area of (17000)mm2.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the use of environmental disclosure as a strategic tool to manage legitimacy crises in a mining company, adopting critical discourse analysis (CDA) as the main methodology. Focusing on a case of environmental disaster, this research reveals how corporate narratives can be manipulated to minimize responsibility and reinforce

Sismabeton: a new frontier for ductile concrete [PDF]
The high ductility of Fiber Reinforced Self-consolidating concrete (called Sismabeton) can be developed not only in tension but also in compression. This aspect is evidenced in the present paper by measuring the mechanical response of normal concrete (NC)

Self-Compacting Concrete: Composition Methodology
, 2010 [Excerpt] Self-compacting concrete (SCC) has as its main advantage the assurance of the durability of the concrete structures regardless the work quality during construction. However, notwithstanding this current and strong motivation, it is still not widely applied.
