Civil engineers develop a computational modeling strategy to help plan effective repairs to damaged reinforced concrete columns. Steel-reinforced concrete columns that support many of the world's ...

A new study demonstrates that the behavior of fiber reinforced polymer reinforced concrete columns is very similar to that of the conventional steel counterpart. Thus, for structures that function in ...

To structural engineers, it’s no mystery why the earthquake in Mexico this week turned a school into a death trap: The building was made of brittle concrete. Such buildings don’t have enough steel ...

A corrosion-free composite rebar-reinforced floor slab, based on a lab-tested glass fiber-reinforced polymer rebar-specific punching shear equation, which performs like a steel-reinforced slab at a ...

As the demand for more sustainable construction grows and raw material shortages like steel continue to be a challenge, fiber-reinforced concrete has become an increasingly popular choice for flatwork ...

The skyline of modern cities is a testament to the rapid advancement of structural engineering. As buildings grow taller and ...
