A recent article published in Engineering introduced green compression-casting for fabricating reinforced concrete structures. The article examined the effects of various inferior concrete ...

In a recent breakthrough, researchers have introduced a game-changing technology in the field of concrete ... reinforced polymer (FRP)/steel confinement, adding steel fibers, and increasing ...

depending on the load it's supporting on its top and the admissible tension of the concrete used (without taking into account its possible and probable flexo-compression). Only for the purposes ...

It was the French gardener, Joseph Monier who developed reinforced concrete by combining the traction resistance of metal and the compression ... undergoes high tension from external loads ...

One can easily perform the test on a Tinius Olsen 50K-T tension compression testing machine (Figure 1) utilizing a four point bend test grip called QS4531 grip. The test is performed on a reinforced ...

Interviewer: Dr. Phil Pannell has been studying concrete for over 15 years and I've come to find out how to solve the problem of it's weakness. [NOISE] Interviewer: So what is this trick?

Reinforced concrete is a perfect example. Concrete is great at putting up with stress in the form of compression. It can take a lot of squeezing abuse before it gives up. It's terrible at handling ...

Any substitutes for the concrete and ... This means the reinforced geopolymer resists breaking when squeezed (under compression loading) and when pulled apart (under tension loading).
