This paper presents an extension of the validation domain of a previously validated three-dimensional probabilistic semi-explicit cracking numerical model, which was initially validated for a specific concrete mix design. This model is implemented in a f...

The wide use of multi-component cement of highly reduced Portland clinker factor is largely impeded by detrimental changes in the rheological properties of concrete mixes, a substantial reduction in the early rate of cement hardening, and sometimes the i...

Over the past few decades, numerous studies have explored the use of steel fiber (SF) as an alternative to transverse reinforcement rebars in reinforced concrete beams, either partially or completely replacing them. However, there are limited studies tha...

It is generally known that the two most crucial elements of concrete that depend on the slump value of the mixture are workability and compressive strength. In addition, slump retention is more delicate than the commonly used slump value since it reflect...

Cement with fly ash has rarely been used in Japan, mainly because its strength development is slower than ordinary Portland cement. In this research, the effect of the new type of fly ash (which was modified by the electrostatic belt separation method) w...

Bacterial concrete is a possible approach toward sustainability in concrete construction through crack-healing. Including a bacterial culture as an admixture in concrete can enhance the service life of a structure through the self-healing of cracks. Inco...
