To investigate the damage characteristics and constitutive model of lightweight shale
ceramsite concrete (LWSCC) subjected to coupled static–dynamic loads, the LWSCC …

To promote the application of machine-made sand and shale ceramsite in self-compacting
concrete (SCC), this paper takes four kinds of SCC with different aggregates as the research …

In this study, experimental investigations were conducted on the self-healing potential of
concrete. Sulfoaluminate based expansive agents (CSA), crystalline admixture (CA), and …

In this paper, effects of fine lightweight aggregate (LWA) contents and their pretreatment
methods on mechanical performance, shrinkage and pore structure of ultra-high strength …

In order to reduce the drying shrinkage strain of traditional ECC and diminish the shrinkage
differences between concrete and PVA (PolyVinyl Alcohol) fiber, this paper designs …

Cementitious composites often crack because of their low tensile strength. The ability of self-
healing cementitious composite to automatically repair cracks has attracted widespread …

This paper provides a state-of-the-art review of uniaxial restraint tests for evaluation of
behavior and cracking potential of early-age cementitious systems in the last five decades …

Lightweight engineering geopolymer composites (LW-EGC) can contribute to green building
materials products by taking advantage of the advantages of man-made ceramsite and …

Due to resource constraints, there has been a growing demand for alternative sources of
water and sand in construction engineering. Recent advancements in technology, such as …

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the effect of nano-SiO 2 on the
compressive strength, shrinkage and early cracking sensitivity of lightweight aggregate …
