Abstract:
Currently Timber-Concrete Composite (TCC) Constructions are often applied for strengthening existing timber beam slabs. The load bearing capacity of the composite construction is primarily affected by the material properties of the timber beam and the concrete slab. But the type of bond between both parts is also of high importance. The concrete slab has to perform several tasks, not only in load carrying direction of the ceiling but also perpendicular to the direction of span or for stiffening the whole building. These tasks will be pointed out in this paper. Furthermore the working process (

When constructing tunnels in mountainous areas, the drilling and blasting method is the most commonly used because of its economy. Ordinary reinforced concrete itself has defects such as poor crack resistance and brittleness. Therefore, when using the drilling and blasting method for ordinary reinforced concrete double-line tunnels, vibration phenomena will occur and cause cracks in the first-line tunnels, which will have adverse effects on the durability and safety of the tunnel. As a response, scholars have proposed the use of steel fiber-reinforced concrete as tunnel lining. In this paper,

Introduction. The important condition ensuring the monolithicity of the erected massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures, divided in compliance with the standards into the heat-shrinkable blocks, is the quality of construction joints in terms of the new-to-old concrete bonding. The research on the bonding strength dependence on the technological parameters of the construction joints formation using the widely spread in recent years self-compacting concretes is a relevant task, because the number of publications on the respective topic is insufficient. The aim of the present paper is t

Abstract:
In the construction practice, various concretes are used which, depending on the purpose, meet different requirements in terms of reliability, resistance to external environmental factors and other equally important parameters. In this article, as a coarse aggregate, crushed stone obtained in the process of crushing concrete waste from fragments of destroyed buildings and structures is considered. The results of experimental studies by various scientists have shown that the use of concrete rubble as aggregate is a promising direction. Thus, the economic effect of the use of crushed concrete as

Due to the acceleration of urbanization in China, construction technology in the construction field has also been continuously developed. The fair-faced concrete is often referred to as decorative concrete. It is a new type of concrete that has been continuously developed as people's demands for architectural decoration and it becomes more widely used in modern construction projects. In this paper, by introducing the types and composition of fair-faced concrete, a series of fair-faced concrete construction technical measures, as well as pouring and conservation measures, have been proposed in

Day to day a large development in construction activities are happening. All constructions require huge quantity of concrete. All we know that conventional concrete has density 2400 kg/m3.This type of concrete is not at all required in all aspects. So that new era concretes are developed to solve more problems. In general Components of buildings have concrete density 2400 kg/m3. In high rise buildings the components are large in size. Thus, by making the components lighter, a concrete needs to have a lesser density while still retaining its adequate compressive capacity. Lightweight aggregate

Abstract:
In recent years, a shortage of development space in many cities has led to a rise in the construction of tall buildings. This article looks at the role special concrete mixes – high-early-strength concrete and self-compacting concrete – have to play in the design and construction of medium-rise and tall buildings. Using research case studies, the article considers the potential savings in construction costs offered by the use of special concretes, as well as added value that may be realised through an increase in floor area.

The expressive generation of construction and demolition waste is stimulating several studies for reusing this material. The improvement of soft soils by concrete compaction piles has been widely applied for 40 years in some Brazilian cities. This technique is used to improve the bearing capacity of soft soils, allowing executing shallow foundations instead of deep foundations. The compaction piles use a high volume of material. This article explored the possibility of using recycled aggregates from construction waste to replace the natural aggregates in order to improve the bearing capacity o

Abstract:
The high-strength concrete is a cement composite reaching high compressive strength, namely, pursuant to the legislation, higher than 60 MPa in the terms of cube compressive strength. The development of high-strength concretes exceeding 100 MPa is still an up-to-date issue and the production of these concretes is still limited only to a prefabrication. Contemporary construction industry and projecting activity have begun to focus on a construction of statically demanding buildings, which can include e.g. high-rise buildings. Such projecting often requires using of the state-of-the-art material

Concrete is the second frequently used material in our planet. Being the most consumed construction material for infrastructures and buildings, the demand for concrete is very high at present and expected to have the same significance in the future. On the other hand, conventional concrete could not be considered as an environmentally friendly construction material. This comes from the perspectives of reducing natural resources, high energy consumption, and produce a huge amounts of construction waste. 3D printing construction with earth materials provide the potential solutions to reshape the
