Residual textile reinforced mortar‐to‐concrete bond after exposure to harsh environments

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Textile reinforced mortars (TRM) are materials whose mechanical behavior has been extensively investigated during the last few years. However, studies on the behavior of these materials after exposure to various aggressive environments are still limited and, hence, their performance during their entire service life remains to be determined ...

Recent advances in embedded technologies and self‐sensing concrete for structural health monitoring

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Fully embedded and spatially diffuse sensors are central to the advancement of civil and construction engineering. Indeed, they serve as an enabling technology necessary for addressing the current challenges associated with through‐life management and structural health monitoring of existing structures and infrastructures. The need to identify

Innovative design and construction of 220 m high wind turbine tower

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an innovative design and construction approach for a 220‐m‐high wind turbine tower, designed to meet the increasing demand for renewable energy and the specific needs of large‐scale wind energy projects. The design leverages a hybrid structural concept with a concrete foundation that supports three inclined legs and a ...

The clashing of in situ and pre‐cast technologies—Western trends and local traditions in concrete engineering shaping shell construction in 20th‐century Hungary

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract After a blossoming pre‐World War II (WWII) period, the concrete construction industry in then‐socialist Hungary existed in a relative isolation from the Western World during the mid‐20th century. In this paper, we focus on the body of work of one of the then newly established state‐owned design offices, IPARTERV, to show how the isolation ...

Combinatorial optimization approach for the efficient reuse of RC components

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The reuse of reinforced concrete (RC) components from deconstructed buildings offers a promising approach to reduce the environmental impact of new constructions. However, it represents a complex combinatorial optimization problem to efficiently place the available modules, which vary in geometry and load‐bearing capacity, into new structures ...

Robustness assessment of reinforced concrete structures for different failure scenarios

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study describes the robustness assessment of 3D reinforced concrete structures analyzing the response of the 2D frames in different design configurations and failure scenarios. The structures are characterized by both frames with wide beams and seismic‐resistant frames with deep beams.
