Low-grade RC beams strengthened with TRM composite based on basalt, carbon and steel textiles: Experimental and analytical study
(Elsevier, 2022-06)
This study develops an easy-to-conduct numerical calculation method to assess the effect of Textile Reinforced Mortar when used as externally bonded flexural strengthening technique in low-grade reinforced concrete beams ...
The patents in the introduction of reinforced concrete in Spain: "Alhondiga de Bilbao" case study
(Instituto de Ciencias de la Construcción Eduardo Torroja, 2014-06)
Reinforced concrete structures are introduced in Spain mainly by French influence. This happens in the late nineteenth century, following the scheme operating through proprietary systems prevailing in Europe. Systems ...
Educating Future Agricultural Engineers at the University of Burgos, Spain, through a Service-Learning Project on Rural Depopulation and Its Social Consequences
(MDPI, 2023-03-02)
A Service-Learning Project (S-LP) is a teaching experience through which the concepts covered during an educational course can practically be applied to address a given social problem. It is therefore a useful teaching ...
Bond between steel reinforcement bars and electric arc furnace slag concrete
(Springer, 2017-04-21)
This paper deals with the bond between steel reinforcement and recycled aggregate concrete, including Electric arc furnace (EAF) slag as full replacement of natural coarse aggregates. Pull-out tests were carried out according ...
Comparison between experimental values and standards on natural stone masonry mechanical properties
(Elsevier, 2012-03-01)
[EN] The research presented in this paper investigates the mechanical properties under compressive loads of a natural stone masonry. Selected materials and arrangement are typical from the Romanesque period, the main ...
Rehabilitation of masonry arches with compatible advanced composite material
(Elsevier, 2011-12-01)
Stone masonry arches are structures of great functional and architectural importance as they may be found in a large number of constructions that are mainly historic buildings. Although relatively solid structures, time ...
Non-linear analytical model of composites based on basalt textile reinforced mortar under uniaxial tension
(Elsevier, 2013-12-01)
[EN] The recent development of inorganic based composites as low-cost materials in reinforced concrete structural strengthening and precast thin-walled components, requires the creation of models that predict the mechanical ...
Experimental and numerical modeling of basalt textile reinforced mortar behavior under uniaxial tensile stress
(Elsevier, 2014-03-01)
During the last years several projects and studies have improved the knowledge about textile reinforced mortar (TRM) technology. TRM has already been used in strengthening masonry and reinforced concrete structural elements ...
Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) as a Promising Technology for the Development of High-Performance Coatings on Cast Al-Si Alloys: A Review
(MDPI, 2024-02-09)
Cast Al-Si alloys, recognized for their excellent mechanical properties, constitute one of the most widely employed non-ferrous substrates in several sectors, and are particularly relevant in the transport industry. ...
