Abstract: This paper adapts and validates a three-dimensional finite element (3D-FE) model of reinforced concrete (RC) plates subjected to repeated low-velocity impact loads that were formerly tested by the authors. A brief description ...

Abstract: This investigation deals with the effect of curing age on the strength development of high-strength concrete containing silica fume and fly ash and exposed to cold temperatures. Tests were performed on three sets of ...

Abstract: A test setup and adequate instrumentation were developed to record the tension properties of high-strength concrete, including the postpeak softening response. The direct uniaxial tension tests were performed under a ...
