Abstract: Mandatory high penalty conditional bond in public works features the current U.S. construction contract bonding system, which is unique to the low penalty unconditional bond, a more popular choice on the international ...

Abstract: A methodology has been developed to account for the elastic–adhesive interface effect on the effective elastic moduli of fiber-reinforced asphalt concrete. To consider the large deformation of asphalt mixtures, the nonlinear ...

Abstract: High-performance concrete easily generates early-age cracks due to its sharp and large temperature and relative humidity (RH) changes. The temperature and RH with and without axial compressive stress were experimentally ...
