RISIntroduction of Innovations into the Traditional Teaching of Construction and Building Materials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The traditional teaching methods used for training civil engineers are currently being called into question as a result of the new knowledge and skills now required by the labor market. In addition, the European Higher ...
Structural Cast-in-Place Application of Polyolefin Fiber–Reinforced Concrete in a Water Pipeline Supporting Elements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Research has shown that polyolefin-based macrofibers can meet the requirements of the standards to consider their postcracking contribution in the structural design of fiber-reinforced concrete. The main drawback of such ...
Microstructural Study of the Interface of Polyolefin Fibers Embedded in Self-Compacting Concrete Matrices with Bond Improver Admixture
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In recent years the plastic industry has developed a new type of synthetic macrofiber based on polyolefins that complies with the requirements of existing standards in considering contributions of fibers in the structural ...
Using Polyolefin Fibers with Moderate-Strength Concrete Matrix to Improve Ductility
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Research has shown that polyolefin fiber–reinforced concrete (PFRC) can meet the requirements of standards in terms of the contributions of fiber in structural design. Such results were obtained with fibers embedded in ...
