Abstract: The effects of calcium nitrite solution, fly ash, silica fume, and their combination on the alkali-silica reaction were studied experimentally according to ASTM C 227 (mortar bar test). To explore the mechanism of such ...

Abstract: The present paper studies the static and dynamic properties of cementitious thin sheets reinforced with discontinuous fiber reinforcement by direct tension test and impact test. The thin sheet specimens are fabricated by ...

Abstract: In this paper, the behavior of concrete under static and fatigue compressive load is studied. Cylindrical specimens were subjected to static cyclic and constant amplitude fatigue loading. The static cyclic tests were ...

Abstract: It is important to understand the rheological properties of an extrudate of short fiber-reinforced cementitious (SFRC) composites to achieve a successful extrusion of SFRC composites. This paper presents the preliminary ...

Abstract: Innovative fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite highway bridge deck systems are gradually gaining acceptance in replacing damaged/deteriorated concrete and timber decks. FRP bridge decks can be designed to meet the ...
