Techniques and Procedures for Bonded Concrete Overlays

Investigating the Performance Characteristics of Asphaltic Concrete Containing Nano-Silica

Using nano-technology materials in the asphalt pavement industry is new compared with Portland cement concrete. The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of nano-silica modification on some properties of a penetration grade asphalt cement and a typical asphalt concrete. 60/70 penetration grade bitumen was modified with different percentages of nano-silica (i.e. 1, 3 and 5%,...

Durability of the Bonding Performance of Frp-concrete Interface Externally Bonded with Frp Composite Sheet

The strengthening of concrete structures externally bonded with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheet is increasingly being used for repair and rehabilitation of existing structures. This paper provides information in the area of long-term durability of FRP-concrete interface externally bonded with FRP composite sheet. It mainly discusses and summarizes the influence of harsh environmental expos...
