Global analysis on the number of faulty bridges, together with continuing corrosion
procedure is kept on by deicing chemicals in various climates that create a necessity toward …

The degree of restraint is a useful concept for characterisation of early-age thermal–
shrinkage stresses occurring in externally-restrained concrete elements such as walls. It can …

In addition to cement, sand, gravel, and water, the current investigation of the influence of
additives on the compressive strength of concrete at 28 days includes fly ash, silica fume …

Recent experiences have shown that thermal-shrinkage cracks in reinforced concrete walls
are a common phenomenon. The cracks appear above the joint between the wall and the …

Estimation of restraint is very important for accurate prediction of the risk of concrete cracking
at early age. This study predicts the restraint in 324 walls and 972 roofs of concrete culverts …

Estimation of restraint is very important for accurately predicting the risk of early thermal and
shrinkage cracking in concrete structures. The stress in young concrete is affected by …

Massive foundation slabs are one of the structures in which early age effects play a
significant role. These effects are mainly related to the exothermic nature of cement …

This study examines the impact of different curing methods on the compressive strength of
concrete. It investigates techniques such as air curing, periodic water spraying, full water …

Volumetric changes in early-age concrete that are restrained might lead to cracks. The
degree of restraint is influenced by the casting sequence and the dimensions of the castings …

Potassium alum is an aluminum and sulphate compound. When added to the concrete
mixing water, it accelerates the cement hydration. This paper is aimed at investigating the …
