Externally prestressed ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) beams without stirrups
(EPUBs-WS) that simplify the reinforcement design and construction procedure are …

Precast ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) segmental bridges (PUSBs) have become
a competitive bridge type in modern civil engineering. To establish a thorough mechanistic …

In this study, ultrahigh-performance concrete (UHPC) was utilized in precast segmental
beams to reduce the self-weight, shorten the construction time, and improve the …

This study numerically examines the prospects of replacing steel tendons with fibre
reinforced polymer (FRP) tendons in precast segmental concrete girders/beams (PSCBs) for …

In prestressed concrete (PC) bridges, high-strength prestressing steel plays a key role in the
flexural response of girders. In both pre-stressed and post-tensioned PC bridge girders …

This paper investigates the feasibility of newly developed basalt fiber reinforced polymer
(BFRP) as prestressing material and the structural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) …

Precast concrete segmental bridges (PCSBs) with epoxy or dry joints offer significant
construction advantages, but their crack resistance and load-bearing capacity are typically …

This study numerically investigates the bending response of dry key-jointed precast
segmental concrete girders/beams (PSCBs) prestressed with external fiber reinforced …

Precast concrete segmental bridges with dry joints have the advantages of rapid
construction speed and low cost. The shear strength and shear behavior of dry joints with …

The preliminary findings of cyclic tests conducted on a series of half-scale unstrengthened
and strengthened masonry walls are presented. Reinforced walls were strengthened by (i) …
