In [1], an approach for determining the moment resistance of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) girders with mixed reinforcement is presented. This approach considers the contribution of the steel...
Point-supported slabs – flat slabs – allow for an efficient and variable room design and thus sustainable use of buildings. Due to the concentrated load application and the associated risk of punching...
The DafStb code of practice “Concrete floor slabs and roofs made of precast hollowcore slabs,” with date of issue January 2023, has been published by Beuth-Verlag in Berlin in three parts: Part 1:...
In 2021, the German Committee for Reinforced Concrete (DafStb) formulated, in a decision of principle, the goal that climate neutrality of concrete construction methods must be achieved by 2024 at the...
Successive reduction of CO2 emissions in production of precast elements is a central challenge for many manufacturers of precast elements and other concrete products. The means available in this...
The building industry and here, in particular, concrete construction, due to the CO2 emissions involved, significantly contribute to climate change. Although concrete, compared to other materials,...
As part of the “RebWeave” project, the universities of Aalen and Ulm are cooperating with Zweigart & Sawitzki GmbH & Co. KG and C-Con GmbH & Co. KG to develop a process suitable for the series...
Owner-managed FloorBridge International GmbH, based in Austria, has been manufacturing joint profiles for structural, movement and construction joints in carbon fiber composite design since 2012. This...
Non-metallic types of reinforcement currently available on the market are mainly offered in flat shapes such as straight bars or grids. Special non-metallic form reinforcements, which are required for...
C-UHPFRC is an innovative material that is characterized by its high strength and the formation of very fine multi-cracks. Non-metallic carbon fibers combined with a ultrahigh-strength concrete matrix...
