Researchers have, for the first time, used a 'micropillar compression' technique to characterize the micro-scale strength of cement, allowing for the development of cement with desirable strength ...

Measuring the in-situ compressive strength of concrete in final structures is an essential but challenging process. Coring combined with non-destructive rebound hammer measurements provides the most ...

Concrete is an essential construction material that is used globally. Combining coring and rebound surveys provides the most efficient and cost-effective method of assessing in situ concrete strength, ...

Supervised machine learning improves predictions of compressive strength in industrial waste-modified concrete, supporting ...

Keywords: Engineered cementitious composite (ECC) materials. Seismic performance. Seismic strengthening. Retrofit. Infill panel systems. Abstract: The study presented in this MCEER report describes ...

A shortage of skilled labor continues to be the dominate issue in the construction industry, and rightfully so. However, delays in construction schedules have always been a thorn in the side of ...
