An architecture PhD student at ETH Zurich has developed a simple solution for building concrete floors in a more ...

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 ...

When positioned in the upper or top portion of the slab thickness, steel reinforcement limits the widths of random cracks that may occur because of concrete shrinkage and temperature restraints ...

One of those modern concepts is Cobiax technology, which utilises a unique hollow-core slab system to reduce the amount of ...

"A great deal of the concrete we use today has the function to act as a protective layer to prevent the steel reinforcement from corroding. If we can use textile reinforcement instead, we can ...

As per the information mentioned in the release, the pre-cast reinforced concrete track slabs are typically 2,200 mm wide, 4,900 mm long, and 190 mm thick, with each slab weighing approximately 3. ...

Abstract: Site measurements have shown that slab loads re-distribute, between the slabs during the concrete curing, while the external loadings and structural geometry remain the same. Some have ...
