Determination of regional deteriorating bridges' maintenance strategies for minimizing life-
cycle risks and costs constructs a complex optimization problem. Improper maintenance …

Bridges might experience many defects during use, such as pavement cracks and
reinforcement corrosion, which easily produce an accumulated impact that threatens bridge …

Abstract Five Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams strengthened with Basalt Fiber Reinforced
Polymer (BFRP) grid in conjunction with Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC) were …

This paper reveals an investigation of damage behaviors of ECC-to-concrete interface with
various ECC strength grades and interface roughness of concrete substrate subjected to salt …

Bridges play an important role in the highway transportation network. There is an increasing
concern that highway bridges have been suffering from structural degradation and …

In view of the limitation of damage detection in practical applications for large scale civil
structures, a practical method for anomaly detection is developed. Within the anomaly …

The influence of bar reinforcement and the concrete strength on shear properties of new-to-
old interface is investigated in this work. Two failure modes of brittle failure (plain concrete) …

Hybrid fibre-reinforced cementitious composites (HFRCC), with high toughness and ductility,
have great potential for repairing damaged concrete in complex service environments. The …

To assess the durability of basalt fibre-reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars used to reinforce
concrete structures in ocean engineering, the evolution of the thermomechanical properties …

This paper presents an investigation into the adhesion capability of rust layer under tension,
which is formed on weathering steel (WS) in simulated marine atmosphere. The …
