Evaluation of Fly Ash in Portland Cement Concrete Paving

This has resulted in an increased volume of high quality fly ash that is considered a waste product or a by-product that can be utilized in products such as portland cement concrete. There are several sources of the high quality fly ash located in Iowa currently producing a combined total of 281,000 tons of material annually.

Finite Element Analysis of FRP-Reinforced Concrete Beams

In this paper, several FRP-reinforced concrete beams are modelled using a recently developed one-dimensional two-node layered composite beam element which accounts for the bond-slip between reinforcing bars and the surrounding concrete. Effect of different surfaces of FRP reinforcing bars on the structural response of FRP-reinforced concrete beams with bond-slip effect is also investigated.

PDF Steel fibre reinforced concrete for elements failing in

The replacement of ordinary steel reinforcement by steel fibres can represent a great advance in this industry. The use of discrete steel fibres as a reinforcement system for cement based materials is now a current practice for several applications (di Prisco et al. 2004). The resulting material is designated Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete (SFRC).
