Currently, the rebound hammer is widely used for estimation of compressive strength of concrete as general testing method. Although rebound hammer has made great contribution for compressive strength ...

Extensive laboratory testing and data analyses reveal that the oil and gas industry can reliably estimate foamed-cement sample compressive strength, if the design engineer knows the compressive ...

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 ...

High-performance concrete with recycled aggregates maintains structural strength, promoting resource-efficient construction and reducing environmental impact.

Concrete suppliers and contractors are sometimes accused of producing or placing low-strength concrete. While low-strength concrete does occasionally occur, many times reported cylinder strengths are ...
