Strain-hardening cement-based composites (SHCC) are high-performance fiber-reinforced composites with promising durability properties due to their considerably enhanced crack control under tensile load conditions. The knowledge of the transport properties of such composites in cracked state are crucial for estimating their durability...

Existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures can be strengthened using Strain Hardening Cementitious Composites (SHCC). The ability of SHCC in exhibiting a ductile response under tensile load due to strain­-hardening after crack initiation makes it a viable material to be used in, both, construction and retrofitting of concrete structures. The...

Hybrid concrete-SHCC beams are a new development in construction techniques. SHCC stands for Strain Hardening Cementitious Composite. In such beams, the tension zone could for example consist, next to the traditional reinforcement, of a material that shows strain hardening behaviour. That helps with controlling the crack width. In traditional ...

3D concrete printing is an additive manufacturing method that uses a printing robot to build 3D concrete elements. In the last decade, several 3D concrete printing techniques have been developed and extensive research has been conducted on suitable concrete mixes, the printing process and the material and mechanical properties of the finished...

Strain Hardening Cementitious Composite (SHCC) is a new type of concrete that is able to control the crack-width in concrete structures. The application of this material in the tension zone of hybrid concrete structures is thus of interest in practice. The interfacial behavior for these hybrid structures is something that is of importance for...

Starting from the late eighties induced seismic activity is present in the Northern part of the Netherlands. Cause of these earthquakes is the extraction of natural gas. In this region, most of the building stock comprises out of unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings. Multiple experimental campaigns are performed since 2014 to investigate the...

Strain Hardening Cementitious Composite (SHCC) is applied on the tension side of a flexural member in order to improve crack-width control of reinforced concrete and its effectiveness is investigated for varying treatment of the interface between SHCC and concrete. A four-point bending test configuration is used and the interface is varied...

Extrusion based additive manufacturing of cementitious materials has demonstrated strong potential to become widely used in the construction industry. However, the use of this technique in practice is conditioned by a feasible solution to implement reinforcement in such automated process. One of the most successful ductile materials in civil...

Over the past few years, several studies have shown the potential of three-dimensional concrete printing (3DCP) for applications in building and civil engineering. However, only a few studies have compared the properties of the fresh printing material and the quality of the printed elements from different printing facilities. Variations in the...

Infrastructure is ageing and we are facing a serious challenge on how to deal with it. One possible solution is to repair it, but the life of current concrete repairs, including all types of repairs and application of different materials, is not satisfactory and there is an urgent need for improvement. Understanding the damage development in a...

Strain Hardening Cementitious Composite (SHCC) is an innovative material which, due to the special material composition and the addition of fibres, exhibits a controlled microcracking behaviour under tensile stresses. As such it might be a promising material for improvement of durability of concrete structures.<br/><br/>An experimental study was...

A series of accelerated corrosion tests were done by SGS INTRON (commenced by Combinatie Aanpak Maastunnel, constructor of the Maastunnel project) to investigate for a proper repair material for the deteriorated concrete floor in the Maastunnel at Rotterdam. Five types of fiber reinforced mixtures with different tensile behavior ranging from...

Different analytical models exist to predict the shear strength of reinforced concrete members. Generally, each of these shear strength models consists of a formulation based on certain underlying theory and fitted model coefficients. The model fitting parameters are usually established from the comparison with test data. Hence, the predictive...

Strain hardening cementitious composite is a new generation material with increased ductility and improved cracking behaviour as compared to traditionally used Normal Strength Concrete (NSC). An important charactersitic of SHCC is the ability of the fibers (2% PVA) in the composite mixture to bridge the cracks and there by preventing...

Differential shrinkage between repair material and concrete substrate is considered to be the main cause of premature failure of repair systems. The magnitude of induced stresses depends on many factors, for example the degree of restraint, moisture gradients caused by curing and drying conditions, type of repair material, etc. Numerical...

Advanced Cementitious Materials (ACM’s) are products with materials found in conventional concrete (cement, silica fume, sand, superplasticizer, and water) plus distinctive materials like fibers (steel, carbon) and quartz. The superiority of ACM’s in terms of strength, ductility, and durability marks it as high potential replacement of...

Reinforcement corrosion is the most important deterioration mechanism affecting reinforced concrete infrastructures. After corrosion starts, expansive pressures are exerted onto the surrounding concrete, causing cracking and spalling of the cover concrete. The amount of cover cracking can possibly be reduced by using strain hardening...
