Mixing + Pouring Concrete: Making anything out of concrete requires you to mix the dry concrete with water in order to start the chemical reaction that allows the concrete to cure. Though mixing concrete might seem straightforward it's actually the easi
concrete beams without reducing ductility; Guo Yanru [2] studied the reinforcement method of cracked beams and slabs by externally prestressing unbonded steel strands, and proved the practicality of this process to narrow cracks and improved the flexural bearing performance of concrete beams; Zhang ...
