Abstract: Abstract The effectiveness and durability of a concrete repair or retrofit is mostly affected by its bond and compatibility to the existing substrate. Although our understanding of concrete-concrete bond has advanced greatly, there remains a… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Recent research has shown that reinforced concrete (RC) beams with concrete-to-concrete casting interfaces where plastic hinges are likely to develop, may experience reduced ductility in comparison to similar structural elements casted at once, due… read more here.
