If structural engineers have their way, building codes will take a leap forward in the next couple of years to allow the use of higher-strength 80-ksi reinforcing steel in concrete shear walls in high ...
A new study demonstrates that the behavior of fiber reinforced polymer reinforced concrete columns is very similar to that of the conventional steel counterpart. Thus, for structures that function in ...
To structural engineers, it’s no mystery why the earthquake in Mexico this week turned a school into a death trap: The building was made of brittle concrete. Such buildings don’t have enough steel ...
When concrete contractors need rebar cut or bent, they have three choices. They can have a fabricator pre-cut or pre-bend the rebar to the specs. They can have their crews use manual tools to hand cut ...
