concrete (Figure 4b) was not reached. That is a consequence of the different shapes of the reinforcement ribs (Figure 1b). However, the improved mechanical performance of the modified castable CC1 also improves the bond performance (Figure 4d), making the latter combination promising for ...
modified polyurethane concrete;temperature characteristic;uniaxial compression experiment;stress–strain curve;constitutive model 1. Introduction Presently, asphalt concrete is the most used material for bridge deck pavement. However, during the service of the bridge, cracking, rutting and frost heave often...
To ensure high homogeneity of the specimen, the cement mortar was fully stirred before pouring. After 28 days of curing, the physical and mechanical properties were measured and averaged, as shown in Table 1. The diameter and height of all specimens were 100 mm. The purity of CO2 used in ...
Fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) are well-accepted materials for the repair and rehabilitation of concrete and steel structures. The rapidly growing use of FRPs for strengthening, retrofitting, and even as structural members for new construction can be attributed to the advantages of these materials,...
