The amplitude and distribution of the stress field appears to be a common underlying cause of the most critical issues that affect tie performance under various loading and boundary conditions. The authors have developed a High Strength Reduced Modulus (HSRM) concrete, using weathering granite ...
Portland Cement Pervious Concrete (PCPC) is a material of increasing interest for parking lots and other applications because of its important sustainability benefits. PCPC pavements greatly reduce the quantity of runoff and "first flush" pollution from parking areas, and can enhance groundwater recharg...
The environmental impact of concrete sleeper retaining walls is also worth considering. These walls are incredibly durable and require very little maintenance, meaning they can last for years with minimal effort. This means that you won’t need to replace them as often, reducing the amount of was...
This article presents advantages in the application of precast/prestressed concrete in structural frames. Using pretensioned concrete components in conjunction with a composite cast-in-place concrete topping creates a lighter structural system than an all cast-in-place structure. Shoring pretensioned beams...

RDP enhances the adhesion of construction materials to substrates such as concrete, wood, and metal.Increased Water Resistance RDP improves water resistance by forming a hydrophobic barrier that repels water. This is particularly important for materials exposed to water, such as exterior walls, roofs...
Here are some concrete examples of how the use of recycled thermoplastic elastomers can help reduce environmental impact: In theautomotive sector, using recycled TPE for the production of interior and exterior components can help reduce the amount of virgin plastic used, resulting in...
Using recycled concrete as aggregate will help reduce the total cost of concrete production because aggregates need not be hauled from remote locations, but obtained locally. The combination of RCA with significant quantities of fly ash or slag as replacement for Portland cement is particularly ...
In this study, the cradle-to-gate environmental impact of a hybrid, mid-rise, cross-laminated timber (CLT) commercial building is evaluated and compared to that of a reinforced concrete building with similar functional characteristics. This study evaluates the embodied emissions and energy associated...
