The utilization of ferronickel slag into the alkali-activated system is promising to mitigate
environmental pollution. Due to slower reaction rate and satisfactory strength, a combined …

The effect of casting and curing temperature on concrete-epoxy-concrete interfacial bond
strength was evaluated. To cover a wide range of climatic conditions, six different …

Thermal characteristics of concrete are one of the main topics in concrete technology
researches. They were extensively studied since the 1980s to predict the behavior of the …

The concrete hydration heat and different construction methods directly affects the early
crack resistance of massive concrete structures and may lead to concrete cracks. In this …

Cementitious materials composed entirely of solid waste are expected to replace cement
and alleviate environmental pollution problems. Due to limitations in reaction rate and …

High-altitude and cold regions (HACR) have extremely low temperatures accompanied by
frequent cold currents in winter, causing significant thermal stress and cracking in concrete …

Cement-based materials encompass a broad spectrum of construction materials that utilize
cement as the primary binding agent. Among these materials, concrete stands out as the …

Analyzing and modeling the thermal behavior of mass concrete elements has been widely
investigated by several researchers. Lately, many contemporary finite element packages …

The paper deals with the prediction of early-age concrete temperature of cast-in-place
stemwall of the bridge abutment. The considered object is an arch bridge located in Gdańsk …

Mass concrete members such as thick foundation slabs and blocks have always been an
integral part of our human-created environment. Building with mass concrete is a …
