This study primarily aims at investigating the impact of incorporating volcanic pumice
powder (VPP), with different steel fibers on self-compacting concrete (SCC) beams' …

In the current investigation, four reinforced concrete beams with square cross sectional area
were poured and tested up to failure under the action of three-point loads. Three of them …

The concrete structures deterioration in the last few decades required effective methods for
evaluating and maintaining the structure condition. Currently, assessing the performance …

Preserving natural resources and implementing the concepts of sustainable engineering to
approach the zero waste concept helped in reducing the detrimental environmental effects …

This paper demonstrates an experimental and numerical study aimed at comparing the
influence of openings of different configurations on the flexural behavior of reinforced …

Cement mortar is a binding material that is made of cement, sand and water. In general,
mixes of mortar are made of raw materials. However, using raw materials in producing …

This paper presents numerical simulation performed by using a commercial finite element
program package of ABAQUS/CAE version 2018 to investigate the flexural behavior of 13 …

The behavior of hollow-core columns composed of reactive powder concrete (RPC)
contained by a circular carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) tube is investigated …

This paper presents a comparison designed to manipulate performance characteristics of
ten reinforced concrete beams with and without openings under a single monotonic …

The technique of replacing the cement with other alternative materials focuses on the
production of materials with similar performance and reduced environmental impacts …
