Among all building materials, concrete is the most commonly used—and there is a
staggering demand for it. However, as we strive to build taller structures with improved …

Engineered cementitious composite's (ECC) tensile ductility and microcracking behavior are
essential for achieving structural durability (for example, corrosion resistance). This paper …

Mode I crack propagation in fiber reinforced cementitious composite is simulated based on
fracture mechanics criteria. To analyze crack propagation, a superposition method is …

In this paper, the development of a new variation of Engineered Cementitious Composite
(ECC) that aims to combine tensile ductility with self-sensing ability is described. ECC is a …

This article presents the seismic performance of scaled bridge columns using polypropylene
fiber reinforced cement composite (PFRC), steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC), and …

In this paper, the energy consumption in the fracture plane of Ultra High Toughness
Cementitious Composite was analyzed with double-edge notched plates under direct …

Four-point bending tests were conducted up to failure on eleven reinforced concrete (RC)
beams and strengthening beams to study the effectiveness of externally pouring ultra high …

Although seismic safety remains a major concern of society—and unfortunately this
observation has been underpinned by recent earthquakes—economy and sustainability in …

Abstract High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composite (HPFRCC) materials
exhibit strain hardening in uniaxial, monotonic tension accompanied by multiple cracking …

The stress-crack opening relationship of engineered cementitious composites was
determined with an inverse method. Four cement matrixes with water to cement ratio of 0.55 …
