Abstract Ultra-High Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) is, due to its
superior mechanical properties and low permeability, a promising material for the restoration …

Encapsulation‐based self‐healing technology is an effective method for healing the crack‐
deteriorated cementitious material. Encapsulation‐based self‐healing initiates by crack …

Sufficient bonding at concrete–rock interfaces is an important prerequisite when designing
supports using concrete or shotcrete. However, the bonding between concrete and rock is …

The rapid construction of prefabricated components of reinforced concrete structures using
3D printing concrete as a permanent formwork is a promising way to organically combine 3D …

Coal gangue is a kind of solid waste produced in the coal mining and preparation. Abundant
SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 are contained in coal gangue, which has potential cementitious activity …

New/old concrete interface is usually the weakest zone in repair of concrete substrate, wet-
joint of precast elements and overlay of concrete bridge. In this study, superplasticizers with …

Concrete-to-concrete interfaces present both in new and existing construction, are
commonly regarded as the weak link. Durability research of interfaces is a vital prerequisite …

Surface damages usually occur in concrete structures. In order to restore the functions and
prolong the service life of concrete structures, their surface damages should be repaired in …

In the present paper different external surface treatments published in the literature as
preventive solutions for improving the performance of existing concrete constructions are …

The reinforced concrete structures that support transport, energy and urban networks in
developed countries are over half a century old, and are facing widespread deterioration …
