Determination of Axial Capacity for Enhanced Normal and Ultra - High Performance Concrete Columns

Experimental Study on Performance of Fiber Concrete-filled Tube Columns under Axial Loading

There have been great developments in the area of civil engineering in the recent few decades and among these, construction and material innovation are quite prominent. Steel-concrete composite construction has emerged as one of the fastest methods of construction. Even though considerable research efforts on conventional reinforced concrete columns have been executed prior to now, concrete fil...

Ultra High Performance Self Compacting Concrete

Experiences in the development of Ultra High Performance Concrete found a very high flowability in concrete with low water powder ratio. Because of the high viscosity of the cement paste, compaction was necessary. To improve the compaction characteristics of the concrete the idea of adding coarse aggregate was developed. The first tests showed a good workability of the fresh concrete and a good...

An Analytical Method for the Evaluation of the RC Columns Capacity Strengthened by Concrete Overlays

Effect of Reinforcement Type on the Tension Stiffening Model of Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC)

Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is a developing concrete and today is increasing to interest using it in structures due to its advantages such as high-compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, highly durability and low-permeability. Therefore, it is necessary to provide models for prediction of nonlinear behavior of this material. This study is aimed to investigate the tension-stiffen...
