Shimizu introduces a spray-based 3D concrete printing system for reinforced structures using robotics and simulation.
Swedish scientists have studied models to help road and bridge maintenance engineers work out how much damage salting the roads in winter might cause to steel-reinforced concrete structures. Swedish ...
Utilizing tape to repair or reinforce concrete structures may seem like some hillbilly fix-it joke, but in fact that's just what fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets are used for. Now, scientists ...
Hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer-concrete structures represent an innovative class of composite materials that strategically combine the tensile strength, durability, and corrosion resistance of ...
The electrons produced during this process are conducted through the metal whilst the ions formed are transported via the pore water which acts as the electrolyte. Concrete as an Environment The ...
Concrete is a very durable material. Fine examples of its first structural use by the Romans are still standing, and concrete is now probably the most widely used building material in the world.
Researchers are trying to make the process more efficient and definitive by using artificial intelligence, combined with a classic mathematical method for quantifying web-like networks, to determine ...
Reinforced concrete potable water structures are at higher risk for corrosion because of constant exposure to moisture. They are also limited on protection methods, because it is important not to ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Concrete structures of the past weren’t built to withstand the fury of an earthquake but a groundbreaking solution from engineers at Purdue University could change that. A ...
Concrete‐fiber reinforced polymer composite structures represent a significant advancement in civil engineering, merging the compressive resilience of concrete with the tensile reinforcement of ...
