Effect of fly ash content on the leaching resistance of shotcrete

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials
IntroductionTo investigate the influence of fly ash (FA) content on the leaching resistance of shotcrete, this study adopted FA replacement ratios as the main variables (0%, 15%, 20%, 25%).MethodsShotcrete specimens were prepared using the wet-mix ...

Analysis of Temperature and Displacement Fields in the Freeze Construction of Overlapping Cross‐Passages Within Water‐Rich Sand Layers

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In the construction of an F‐type cross‐passage in an overlapping‐type shield tunnel using the artificial ground freezing method, the development of the distal frozen wall is difficult to control, and ground deformation is influenced by the superimposed disturbance of successive construction steps. Existing studies are insufficient to fully characterize

Effect of Curing Temperature on Microstructure and Durability of Concrete: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The microstructure and durability of concrete are greatly influenced by the curing temperature. High‐temperature curing accelerates cement hydration; however, it may lead to uneven distribution of hydration products and increased porosity. In contrast, low‐temperature curing retards hydration, resulting in an insufficient hydration formation products ...

Optimizing the construction process: State‐of‐art, innovations, and potential benefits of temperature match curing

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 7312-7325, December 2025.
Abstract The temperature match curing (TMC) method significantly enhances the accuracy of concrete property assessments by replicating in situ curing conditions in test specimens. While this method has remained underutilized and relatively unknown in the industry due to its complexity, the advent of Internet of Things and wireless sensor technologies ...

From pixels to rating—A semiautomated system linking multi‐damage segmentation and condition rating in concrete bridge inspections

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 30, Page 5842-5866, 19 December 2025.
Abstract While machine learning (ML) has advanced image‐based damage detection, a critical gap remains: the automated translation of detected damage into standardized condition ratings used in structural assessments. Most existing approaches stop at semantic segmentation, overlooking the damage rating step essential for practical inspections.
