Population increase and building construction negatively affect the environment by
generating high carbon dioxide (CO 2) concentrations. Meanwhile, the depletion of normal …

This review paper aims to investigate the prior research on incorporating steel fibres into
lightweight concrete (SF-LWC) to produce sustainable and environmentally friendly …

Bio-healing is now believed as a promising technique for the repair of concrete cracks.
However, the healing capability of bacterial mixes against repeated damage cycles is still …

Compared with ordinary concrete, high-strength lightweight aggregate concrete (HSLC) can
remarkably attenuate self-weight in engineering structures. However, the fatigue …

Cementitious composites often crack because of their low tensile strength. The ability of self-
healing cementitious composite to automatically repair cracks has attracted widespread …

To enhance the adaptability of foam concrete in roadbed engineering, there is also a
consideration to satisfy the increasing demand for sustainable and green building materials …

Concrete cracks and local damage can affect the bond performance between concrete and
steel bars, thereby reducing the durability of reinforced concrete structures. Compared with …

Cracks in concrete structures can significantly decrease their lifespan by exposing
reinforcement to outside environment, leading to concrete degradation. To address this …

In practical engineering, concrete materials are mainly damaged by tension, especially for
high-strength lightweight concrete (HSLC) whose tensile performance is not as satisfactory …

Mixing fiber into manufactured sand to prepare concrete can effectively reduce the
consumption of natural sand resources, improve concrete performance, improve the life of …
