This study presents a review of residual strength properties of normal and high strength
concrete exposed elevated temperatures: the implication of natural and recycled …

Cracks are one of the worsening reasons for concrete failure, which permits the penetration
of chemical solutions and could significantly impact the physical, mechanical, and durability …

Abstract Effect of plastic waste (PW) and graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) on properties of
high-volume fly ash (HVFA) concrete was investigated. Response surface methodology has …

Because of the recent progress in materials properties, specifically high-strength concrete,
further research is needed to evaluate its suitability, understanding, and performance in the …

There has been an increasing interest in the field of rehabilitation, mainly for repair and
strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. One of the most effective techniques …

The addition of nanomaterials to concrete efficiently fills the pores of the concrete, thereby
improving its hardening characteristics. However, no research is available in the literature …

As concrete is one of the most used construction materials, lowering its environmental
impacts is crucial for a more sustainable built environment. The incorporation of …

Plastic waste (PW) generation continuously increases every year due to the growing
population and demand for plastic materials. This situation poses a challenge to many …

In this work, the effects of nano-SiO 2 (NS), heating temperatures, and cooling measures on
the physical, mechanical, and microscopic properties of engineered cementitious …

Carbon nano fibers (CNFs) were added into high strength concrete (HSC) to evaluate the
fire endurance of incumbent matrix. The residual mechanical performance was evaluated by …
