Princeton researchers believe seashells might just hold the key to stronger concrete.
Recent study reveals machine learning's potential in predicting the strength of carbonated recycled concrete, paving the way ...
If structural engineers have their way, building codes will take a leap forward in the next couple of years to allow the use of higher-strength 80-ksi reinforcing steel in concrete shear walls in high ...
AMES, Iowa – Grant Schmitz, eyes inches from a 6.5-by-12-foot panel of ultra-high performance concrete, studied the smooth surface for tiny cracks. He and other research engineers carefully marked ...
Measuring the in-situ compressive strength of concrete in final structures is an essential but challenging process. Coring combined with non-destructive rebound hammer measurements provides the most ...
When compressive strength tests of laboratory-cured cylinders fail to meet the specified acceptance criteria, core tests are commonly used to verify the strength and to obtain acceptance of the ...
Since its invention in the 1980s, 3D printing has steadily moved from research labs ...
Nanosilver-modified concrete enhances flood resilience, combining antimicrobial properties with bio-based plasticizers for durable, sustainable infrastructure.
There are three primary objectives for cold weather concreting: 1) protect the newly placed concrete from early-age freezing, 2) protect concrete to ensure adequate strength development, and 3) ...
