During past two decades, much research has been carried out on shear and flexural strengthening of reinforced concrete beams using different types of fibre reinforced polymers and adhesives.

Fundamentals of reinforced concrete theory and design. Analysis and design of beams, slabs, and columns. Concurrent familiarization with current building codes ...

Reinforced concrete is the miracle material which made possible so many of the twentieth century’s most iconic structures, but here in this century its environmental footprint makes it something ...

Even concrete reinforced with steel requires ongoing repair ... most processes rely on the placement of key materials like beams or rebars, limiting the automation that 3D printing should offer.

Mark Miodownik puts the properties of reinforced concrete to the test. He watches as a beam of concrete withstands a load of 2.5 tonnes. Even though cracks are present in the lower portion of the ...
