Crack occurrence and propagation are among critical factors that affect the performance and
lifespan of civil infrastructures such as bridges, pipelines, and so on. As a consequence …

Steel fibered high-strength concrete (SFHSC) became in the recent decades a very popular
material in structural engineering. High strength attracts designers and architects as it allows …

The incorporation of steel fibers in a concrete mix enhances the shear capacity of reinforced
concrete beams and a comprehensive understanding of this phenomenon is imperative to …

Construction debris and agricultural wastes are among the major environmental concerns in
the world. Construction debris consumes about 28% of the nation's landfill facilities. Over …

The fracture front in concrete, as well as rock, is blunted by a zone of microcracking, and in
ductile metals by a zone of yielding. This blunting causes deviations from the structural size …

Polymer concrete has shown a number of promising applications in building and
construction, but its mix design process remains arbitrary due to lack of understanding of …

The first edition of this comprehensive work quickly filled the need for an in-depth handbook
on concrete construction engineering and technology. Living up to the standard set by its …

Plastic concrete is susceptible to develop cracks due to shrinkage in dry and windy
conditions. Addition of fibers could reduce propagation of this crack. On the other hand …

An exploration of the world of concrete as it applies to the construction of buildings,
Reinforced Concrete Design of Tall Buildings provides a practical perspective on all aspects …
