ULMA Construction supplied its MK underground tunnel carriage system for the construction of the Air Cushion Surge Chamber at the San Gabán III Hydroelectric Project. The structure, executed by China ...

The integration of textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) and reinforced concrete (RC) has recently emerged as a promising strategy for developing hybrid structures. This study examines the flexural and ...

The removal of concrete formwork also called as strike-off or stripping of formwork should be carried out only after the time when concrete has gained sufficient strength, at least twice the stress to ...

Concrete is the backbone of modern construction, but its heavy environmental footprint has long been a challenge for environmentalists. Cement production alone accounts for nearly eight percent of ...

Concrete's strength and structural integrity come not only in its material properties, but also from how it's molded during construction. An architecture student has devised a clever way to build ...

Abstract: The method using ANSYS software to design simple fair-faced concrete Formwork is introduced. The structural deformation of Formwork panel, wood ribs, steel pipe main ribs, backing, steel ...

An architecture PhD student at ETH Zurich has developed a simple solution for building concrete floors in a more climate-friendly way. Significant amounts of concrete and steel can be saved thanks to ...

With concrete the most utilized construction material on Earth, the drive to find more efficient methods drives engineering and architecture researchers worldwide forward. According to an announcement ...

"Unfold Form" is a lightweight and reusable formwork system for vaulted concrete structures. This type of formwork uses geometry to shape a floor that uses up to 60 percent less concrete and 90 ...
