Testing and modeling reinforced 3D concrete printing
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 ...

Abstract The concrete industry is responsible for a significant portion of global waste production and multi‐generation recycled aggregate concrete (MGRAC) is a means to allow the sector to transition to a circular economy framework. To predict the behavior of MGRAC at the member level there is a need to understand the underlying mechanics of bond ...

Evaluating structural resistance and updating modeling uncertainties through testing
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 ...

Side‐by‐side long‐term performance assessment of GFRP‐ and steel‐reinforced concrete bridge decks
Abstract The corrosion‐induced deterioration of steel‐reinforced bridge decks is a service life concern, especially in cold regions, where the use of deicing chemicals is common. To address this issue, glass fiber‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcement has received growing attention, owing to the GFRP's resistance to conventional corrosion.

Abstract Dry joints are widely used in precast segmental bridge construction because they simplify assembly and accelerate erection. Incorporating fasteners crossing flat dry joints represents an innovative configuration for this type of connection.
