Abstract: The civil engineering profession has been undergoing an identity search. With the advent of information technology and the global market, competition from engineering offices elsewhere and from other local professions is ...

Abstract: The time-dependent rheological behavior at high temperature of cement paste incorporating various chemical admixtures is critical for hot-weather concreting applications. This paper investigates the combined effects of ...

Abstract: Corrosion of concrete sewer pipes by sulfuric acid attack is a problem of global scope, leading to multibillion dollar losses each year. However, research is still needed to better understand the mechanisms of sulfuric ...

Abstract: To calculate the shear capacity of structural members reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP), current shear design provisions generally use slightly modified versions of existing semiempirical shear design equations ...

Abstract: Conventional pile materials such as steel, concrete, and timber are prone to deterioration for many reasons. Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) concrete composites represent an alternative construction material for deep ...
