Life-Cycle Cost and Life-Cycle Assessment of a Monumental Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Reinforced Concrete Structure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The objective of this study was to investigate the economic and environmental appeal of the world’s largest glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) RC flood mitigation channel, which was built in Jazan (Saudi Arabia). The ...
Development of Water-Cured Alkali-Activated Concrete with a High Volume of Silica-Rich Waste Limestone Powder and GGBS and Fly Ash Materials: Strength, Durability, and Life Cycle Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Significant amounts of finely ground waste powder are produced during the heating process of silica-rich limestone aggregates in asphalt concrete plants. This resulting by-product poses challenges and opportunities in the ...
Enhancement in Chloride Diffusivity due to Flexural Damage in Reinforced Concrete Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A multiphysics formulation for chloride diffusion in an RC beam with stress-induced damage quantifying the enhancement in chloride diffusivity due to damage is presented. An experimental investigation involving measurement ...
Microstructure of a Type G Oil Well Cement-Nanosilica Blend
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Motivated by the need to improve oil well integrity for potential carbon capture and storage through
Cracking in Concrete Water Tank due to Restrained Shrinkage and Heat of Hydration: Field Investigations and 3D Finite Element Simulation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Concrete water tanks have a stringent serviceability requirement in terms of limiting crack widths. Excessive cracks or cracks running across the full depth of these tanks could result in loss of serviceability from leakage ...
