INTRODUCTION Application of wet lay-up Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) systems in the repair industry is well accepted. These applications include structural strengthening of structures such as parking garages, buildings, bridges, etc. which have experience some form of structural deficiency, many...
The IRIS project is part of a wider project looking at re-engineering the processes of in-situ concrete frame construction funded under the Partner in Technology (PIT) scheme. Although the IRIS project is part of the wider project it is not directly dependent on the construction for the in-situ...
Provides guidelines on field inspection of rust on reinforcing steel (rebar). Includes a basic overview on corrosion, surface contaminants, mill scale and bond strength of rusted rebar
INTRODUCTION Three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) calculations for concrete structures are now commonplace in many applications. Common applications range from academic studies of structural behaviors under transient loads to informing designs for new structures or retrofits. The objective...

This guide covers the repair of concrete structures in the splash zone and underwater portions of structures located in lakes, rivers, seas, oceans, and groundwater. Concrete deterioration, investigation and testing procedures, preparation, materials and methodology, and inspection procedures are...
This Specification covers construction of pervious concrete pavement. This Specification is incorporated by Contract Documents and provides requirements for the Contractor. This Specification governs for construction within its scope, except project-specific Contract Documents govern if there is a...
INTRODUCTION This guide provides recommendations for proportioning normalweight concrete with ground calcium carbonate (GCC) and dust-of-fracture aggregate mineral fillers (AMF). It also provides background information on these materials, techniques for their characterization, and their effects on...
This Specification covers construction of polished concrete slab finishes. This Specification is incorporated by Contract Documents and provides requirements for Contractor. This Specification governs for construction within its scope, except project-specific Contract Documents govern if there is a...
Heavyweight concrete is used in counterweights of bascule, lift, and cable-stay bridges. It is used for counterweights for both cranes and concrete-conveying equipment. It has also been used for sound and vibration attenuation in subway systems where extra mass helps in protecting sensitive...
The principal causes of deflections taken into account in this report are those due to elastic deformation, flexural cracking, creep, shrinkage, and temperature effects. This document is composed of two introductory chapters and four main chapters that provide information on calculating and...
Note that this guide is based on the most recent knowledge and interactions with other technical organizations, such as the working group of the Italian National Research Council (CNR), which was established for the development of guidelines for both the qualification of FRCM/SRG composites and the...
