Environmental pollution is one of the most serious and global problems for humans. Photocatalysis is a promising technology to control environmental pollution via the utilization of semiconductor materials as a photocatalyst. In this study, iron-dope...
Early-age cracking during the plastic stage is unsightly and a cause of future durability problems. This paper investigates the effects of various simple curing methods used in practice to enhance early-age concrete cracking performance, including co...
Alkali–silica reactivity (ASR) is one of multiple reactions responsible for premature loss in concrete infrastructure service life. ASR results in the formation of expansive, white-colored gel-like material which results in internal stresses wi...
Additive manufacturing is becoming increasingly important in the construction industry. Wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) can be integrated into the selective paste intrusion (SPI) to enable the simultaneous printing of reinforced concrete. The...
Analysis of the use of reinforced concrete structures confirmed the destruction of reinforced products based on Portland cement due to stray currents, which makes it impossible to achieve the required durability and reliability of structures. The pre...
Dehydration of concrete floor slabs is a critical step to ensure that the flooring material adheres properly and that there is no moisture-related damage to the floor after installation. Dehydration in a cold climate is often a slow process, which ca...
The bleeding of cementitious materials corresponds to the settlement of the granular skeleton accompanied by the accumulation of water at the surface (bleed water). Part of this water (internal bleeding) remains trapped under the aggregates (sand or...
Earthen construction is one of the world’s oldest and most popular construction methods, and it is still the target of prejudice due to the loss of ancestral knowledge. Due to the need for more effective and healthy building solutions, this stu...
