Abstract: When concrete is sprayed during shotcreting, inevitably some material is lost due to rebound. The relative losses for coarse aggregates and fibers are higher than that for the rest, and therefore the composition of the ...

Abstract: This paper presents the effect of geometrically similar specimen size on the mechanical properties of cement-based foams. The experimental study also investigates fracture-mechanical parameters under flexural impact. A ...

Abstract: This paper reports the fracture parameters of bond in stone masonry beams bound with plain and fiber-reinforced mortar. Sandstone blocks were joined together with a modern Type S mortar conforming to the Canadian standard. ...
