Many reinforced concrete structures have been built in Switzerland and Central Europe since the 1960s. Time leaves its mark: chemical changes in the concrete may result in steel corrosion. Researchers ...
A cross-sectio of hollow rebar. Drexel University researchers have developed a new approach to reinforce concrete that takes inspiration from nature, specifically the hollow structures found in plant ...
As the demand for more sustainable construction grows and raw material shortages like steel continue to be a challenge, fiber-reinforced concrete has become an increasingly popular choice for flatwork ...
Findings show enforced carbonation in concrete enhances performance but increases corrosion risk, highlighting the need for ...
Continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) is a durable roadway solution designed with uninterrupted longitudinal steel reinforcement. This engineering approach seeks to mitigate the formation ...

Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) and Traditional Wall Systems: Key Differences in Modern Construction
Each wall system brings specific characteristics to a project...Evaluating factors like structural demands, energy ...
The thickness of concrete coating on a large-diameter offshore pipeline may be up to eight times the wall thickness of its steel pipe, requiring that its effects on the stiffness, stresses, and ...
Large shell structures made of concrete or stone are hardly ever built any more. The reason is that their construction requires large, expensive supporting structures. A completely new construction ...
