Mortar samples' strength and durability properties can be improved by adding different
pozzolanic materials and fibers to their mixtures against freeze–thaw (FT) periods. For this …

To improve the fatigue behaviour of the concrete, this paper explored a potential innovative
method: the joint addition of expansive agents (EA) and glass fibres (GF). It was envisaged …

Enormous quantities of unwanted industrial wastes are produced by various industries. As a
result, the issues related to the environment and land scarcity have been raised. The …

PVA fiber reinforced cementitious composites are becoming more and more popular. Due to
the difference in physical and chemical properties of the materials, there is a problem of …

Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), including industrial by-products or natural
pozzolans are widely used as a partial replacement of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in …

In seawater sea-sand concrete (SSSC), to avoid steel corrosion, the use of fibre-reinforced
polymer (FRP) bars as reinforcement has been proposed. However, FRP bars do not have …

The artificial concrete pillar (ACP) replacement technique is a safe and reliable method to
safely mine orebody pillar in room and pillar mining. In contrast to traditional ore pillar …

The prevalent overreliance on silica sand within strain-hardening cement-based composites
(SHCC) underscores the urgency to address the depletion of natural resource. To address …

One widely accepted strategy is to add fiber into recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) to
improve compressive strength. Few existing investigations have focused on the cyclic …

The increase in cement production has had a noteworthy impact on the emission of
greenhouse gases. As a result, it is essential to develop geopolymer concrete innovations to …
