Contractors need to know how to correctly evaluate the in-place strength of concrete so they can determine to proper time to remove formwork, backfill or open up a pavement to traffic. Concrete must ...

Consider the following scenarios for a project on which the specified compressive strength (fc’) is 3,500 psi at 28 days. These are all examples of incorrect interpretations of the acceptance criteria ...

Not all damage to a load-bearing structure is immediately apparent. So how do civil engineers find out that a bridge or a large hall is no longer safe? Many clues form a picture. Concrete structures ...

Researchers have created a graphene-enhanced, 3D-printable concrete that improves strength and reduces carbon emissions by 31%, advancing sustainable construction. Researchers from the University of ...
