Concrete is the most widely used construction material. Worldwide consumption of cement,
the strength‐giving component in concrete, is now estimated to be 4.10 Gt per year, having …

The last decade has seen rapid developments in the areas of carbon fiber technology,
additive manufacturing technology, sensor engineering, ie, wearables, and new structural …

This paper sets out to explore the potential of combining a cable net with a fabric, in
particular to scale the concept of flexible formworks to the size of large-span roofs and …

Thin concrete shells can span large distances thanks to their structural efficiency, following
the optimum force flow. Despite the efficient use of material of well-designed shells, their …

Even though computational design has paved the way for the design of complex forms,
construction is still difficult, inefficient, and costly. This paper aims to compile the most recent …

This work focused on material and Global Warming Potential (GWP) savings for the
construction of textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) beams made of carbon fabrics (without …

The idea of structural art has gained an increase in interest due to the pioneering book by
David Billington in 1983. With this, a paradigm shift is emerging with the belief that structural …

The study develops textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) trusses, reinforced with 3D textiles. It is
argued that, by taking advantage of textiles' ability to conform to complex shapes and their …

Textile-reinforced mortar (TRM) is used to strengthen reinforced concrete (RC) structures
using a textile and inorganic matrix. TRM is a part of textile-based composites; the basic …

This paper demonstrates the importance of including non-linearities in the design of textile
reinforced concrete (TRC) shells. By two cases, the influence on the buckling load of …
