Strength, shrinkage, and permeability performance of seawater concrete
(
ISEC Press
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Given the increasing global concern of freshwater scarcity, the use of seawater in concrete mixtures appears to be a way forward towards achieving sustainable concrete, especially in the case of non-reinforced concrete ...
Microstructure investigation of seawater vs. Freshwater cement pastes
(
ISEC Press
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Recently, seawater has emerged as viable mixing water for concrete, especially in the case of non-reinforced concrete applications or with the use of non-corrosive reinforcement. Previous studies concerning seawater-mixed ...
Engineering students' approaches to learning and views on collaboration: How do both evolve in a PBL environment and what are their contributing and constraining factors?
(
Modestum LTD
, 2019 , Article)
Background: This study investigated the development of engineering students' approaches to learning and views on collaboration in a PBL environment. Material and methods: An explanatory mixed research approach was employed ...
Internal transverse reinforcement configuration effect of EB/NSE-FRCM shear strengthening of RC deep beams
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
This paper presents an experimental study carried out on the structural performance of shear-critical reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams internally reinforced with two different stirrups configurations; i.e. aligned and ...
Soffit and U-Wrap fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix strengthening for reinforced concrete beams
(
American Concrete Institute
, 2019 , Article)
The structural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) was investigated. Fourteen unstrengthened and strengthened beams were tested in flexure under ...
A strut and tie model for FRCM-strengthened reinforced concrete deep beams
(
ISEC Press
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Exiting literature revealed that fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) is a promising material for the strengthening of shear deficient reinforced concrete (RC) beams. However, most of the available experimental ...
