Abstract: To study the impact of the strain rate effect and size effect on the compressive dynamic behavior of lightweight concrete (LC), 3 cube sizes and 10 strain rates were set up, and uniaxial compression tests were conducted ...

Abstract: Evaluating the fire performance of bridges is necessary for damage mitigation as more fire-related accidents occurred on bridge structures. Current solutions adopting temperature curves can result in significant inaccuracy ...

Abstract: To examine the uniaxial behaviors of plain concrete and lightweight aggregate concrete under dynamic loadings, the plain concrete specimens and lightweight aggregate concrete specimens prepared by shale ceramsite were ...
