Concrete is in great demand due to global infrastructure expansion. Cement a critical component the production of concrete because it binds ingredients together. But primary issue arises environment release toxic gases such as CO3 and sulphur into atmosphere. To overcome this, some other cementitious materials, namely admixtures, were utilized partial replacements for cement. In this study, was...

Based on the bending experiment for two-span continuous post-tension beams with unbounded tendons and externally applied CFRP sheets, the analysis of the stress increment of unbonded tendons is monitored in the loading process. Since self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a suitable innovation,, understanding the implementation of this type of concrete on the ultimate unbonded tendon stress is criti...

This paper describes a review of the potential use of High Strength Incorporating Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag and Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete used in construction industry to improve the structural strength and reduce steel reinforcements requirements. Blast furnace slag (GGBS) has been used as a supplementary material along with the cement. It helps in increasing the durability an...

There is a growing need for the rehabilitation, repair, and upgrading of concrete structures such as bridges and buildings. The repair or rehabilitation of reinforced concrete structures often offers a lower cost alternative to rebuilding, and it is traditionally achieved by bonding steel plates to the tensile face of a reinforced concrete member. The shear strength can be enhanced with plates ...

in order to investigate the flexural behaviors of rc beams after freeze-thaw cycles, compressive strength test of concrete cubes after 0, 50, 100, 125 freeze-thaw cycles were made, and static flexural experiment of 48 rc beams after 0, 50, 100, 125 freeze-thaw cycles were made. the relationships of relative compressive strength, mass loss rate, relative dynamic elastic modulus and numbers of fr...
