Increasingly shortage of river sand and fresh water has prompted the construction industry to
use seawater sea sand concrete (SSC). The construction industry selected fiber reinforced …

With the development of the marine economy and the deployment of national maritime
power, a large number of coastal port structures and civil engineering projects need to be …

Combined use of basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) and seawater sea-sand concrete
(SSSC) in civil engineering could avoid the consumption of freshwater and river sand and …

Corrosion resistant FRP reinforced seawater concrete structures are attractive alternatives to
conventional steel reinforced normal concrete structures. In this experimental study, the …

The lower bond strength of FRP bars to concrete compared to steel bars has remained an
unsolved barrier to the widespread use of FRP-reinforced concrete under extreme loading …

Using sea sand instead of river sand and recycled coarse aggregates instead of natural
coarse aggregates to prepare sea sand and recycled aggregate concrete (SSRAC) can help …

The continuous increase in adverse environmental impacts of ordinary concrete with steel
reinforcements has demanded using more environmentally friendly materials in the …

Polypropylene fiber, as a micro-scale reinforcement, can effectively inhabit the continuous
micro-crack propagation of concrete during service. This paper aimed at examination of the …

The resource shortage of freshwater and river sand promotes the development of seawater
sea-sand concrete (SWSSC). However, most of the previous studies of SWSSC focused on …

Concrete is a porous material and prone to attacks by aggressive media such as sulphates,
carbonates, and alkali-silica reactions. These aggressive media penetrate the reinforced …
