Pathways for decarbonization of reinforced concrete through rebars based on steel scrap

Steel reinforcement bars are an essential structural material in construction and a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions. The review of published environmental production declarations (EPDs) based on India-specific life cycle assessment (LCA) shows considerable variability due to differences in technologies,...

Tensile creep behaviour of cracked textile reinforced concrete

Structural design of isolated footings using steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC)

This paper illustrates the structural behavior and performance of isolated footings designed using various material and reinforcement configurations. Specifically, the study focuses on four types of footings: plain concrete, conventionally reinforced concrete, steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC), and a combination o...
