This paper summarises the research carried out to date on the impact resistance of concrete
subjected to different impact load regimes, with a focus on high-velocity projectile impact …

Composite materials employing cement-based mortars, usually known as fabric-reinforced
cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites, have recently emerged as an attractive solution for …

This paper investigates the effectiveness of Steel-Reinforced Grout (SRG) jackets to
strengthen shear critical reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Eleven RC beams were tested in …

A substantial fraction of the existing housing stock is built with low-quality reinforced
concrete that shows poor mechanical properties. Those concretes, labelled low-grade …

Salient features of lightweight aggregate concrete (LAC) include noticeable fire resistance,
high strength-to-weight ratio, and low magnitude of dead loads. Further, LAC has a low cost …

The effect of the shear span-to-depth (a/d) ratio on the shear behavior of steel reinforced
grout (SRG)-strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) beams is experimentally investigated …

This paper presents experimental and analytical studies on the uniaxial compressive
properties and failure mechanics of confined concrete columns with a novel strengthening …

The effectiveness of steel-reinforced grout (SRG) jacketing in improving the structural
performance of deficient reinforced concrete (RC) columns is experimentally investigated in …

In this paper, a new time-effective modeling approach is proposed for predicting the
response of shear-deficient reinforced concrete (R/C) beams strengthened with steel …

Moisture diffusion influences the durability and long-term performance of concrete and whilst
it predominantly occurs via the cement matrix and Interfacial Transition Zone, most existing …
