The proposed solution of fasteners made of corrugated steel sheet and shot nails can be used as the connector for steel?concrete composite floor beams. The sheet provides stay-in-place formwork for a monolithic reinforced concrete slab. Furthermore, the ...

Although accurately estimating the early age compressive strength of concrete is essential for the timely removal of formwork and the advancement of construction processes, it is challenging to estimate it in cool, cold, hot, or unmanaged conditions. Var...

Formwork lateral pressures are critical with respect to engineering safety, and laboratory tests are often limited by time, height, etc. Formwork lateral pressures are related to early concrete fluid behavior (e.g., thixotropy). In this paper, we propose...

Active rheology control (ARC) or active stiffening control (ASC) is a concept with which the conflicting rheological requirements during different stages of concrete casting can be reconciled. For instance, formwork leakage could be reduced by actively c...

The interaction between concrete and steel occurs during concrete mixing and finishing processes, during filling of concrete moulds, formwork, composite columns and during pumping of concrete mixtures. More experimental investigation is required to predi...

The concrete formwork process is a critical component of construction project control because failing to gain the necessary concrete strength can lead to reworks and, consequently, project delays and cost overruns during the project?s execution. The goal...

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a type of concrete that is placed in the formwork under its own weight. Although there are many studies showing the behavior of SCC beams, most relate to the behavior of simple supported beams. Unlike those, this is a st...
