Abstract Recently the Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHFRC) presents
remarkable advantages compared to the other types of concrete. Compared to the ordinary …

The service performance of concrete structures in a water environment differs from that in a
normal environment. An accurate evaluation of the mechanical properties and service status …

Due to the large-scale infrastructure construction and environmental protection pressure in
China, the demanded cement is in short supply and the price is rising, and the overcapacity …

This article discusses the effects of self-healing on self consolidating concretes incorporating
high volumes of fly ash (HVFA–SCC) when subjected to continuous water exposure. For this …

Pores, voids correspond to inevitable products in the formation of concrete and significantly
affect its macroscopic effective strength. A lot of researches show that both porosity and pore …

For concrete under humid conditions, the mechanical properties of concrete are significantly
affected by the moisture content, which differs in terms of different immersion times. This …

Free water in a concrete medium significantly influences its bearing capacity and failure
mechanism. In this study, the mechanical properties and failure mechanism in concrete …

In this study, the effects of the water–cement (W–C) ratio and plastic aggregates (PAs)
recycled from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) …

Reef limestone was used as a coarse–fine aggregate to prepare concrete with a strength
class of C30. The mechanism of influences of water-saturated state on dynamic compressive …
