Steel fiber reinforced concrete provides superior resistance to cracking and crack propagation due to increased tensile strength in concrete structures. Applications of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concr
Resifan is a self-leveling and colored coating ideal for places where a continuous and smooth finish is desired. It provides solid and consistent color, and demands low maintenance. The appearance
APPLICATION OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN CONSTRUCTION Nanotechnology is the engineering of functional systems at the molecular scale. Nanotechnology is concerned with objects between 1 and 100nm in size.(
Benefits of Using Steel Fibers in Concrete The use of steel fiber in concrete can improve its many properties. The benefits of using steel fibres in concrete are as follows: 1. Steel Fibers are gen
The behavior of concrete in extreme fire is dependent on the composition and properties of the concrete structure. The type of aggregates used, the mix design, the moisture condition, and age are t
A concrete mix is a proportionate mixture of components such as cement, sand, aggregates, and water. The mix ratios are determined based on the type of construction and mix designs. However, buildi
Bacterial concrete or self healing concrete fills up the cracks developed in structures by the help of bacterial reaction in the concrete after hardening.
Understanding the common concreting problems that can occur during concreting practice will help to minimize further mistakes during concreting. Most of the concreting problems arise due to: Improp
Architectural concrete provides higher aesthetic finish and serves the structural function for a building. Mix proportions, features and uses of architectural cast-in-place concrete is discussed.</
Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is a type of composite materials consist of carbon fiber and polymer. The carbon fiber provides the strength and stiffness while the polymer acts as cohesive
