The thermal effects on the Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) behavior are still not completely known. Under high temperatures, the processes that interact at early age are thermo-activated. All the experimental results obtained with ...
Alexandre Sarrasin (1895-1976) studied at Zürich Federal Swiss Institute of Technology (ETH) from 1913 to 1918. Despite First World War's conflicts surrounding the neutral Switzerland, the intellectual climate inside ETH was cosmopolitan and liberal. As un ...
Material characterization tests of an Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) were performed at various ages. A linear relationship was obtained between the mechanical properties and the degree of hydration. In parallel, the influence of ...
The curing temperature is known to influence the strength and durability of concrete. In general, curing at elevated temperature results in high early strength gain, but impairs the long-term strength and transport properties. Previous investigations have ...
Temperature variations are particularly harmful to wearing courses with asphalt mixture. During wintertime, and especially, at very low temperatures, a surface cracking may appear and propagate more or less rapidly. An experimental investigation has been c ...
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites offer several advantages in relation to traditional materials, such as high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, low thermal conductivity and rapid component installation. Despite the great potential of th ...
In the summer of 2005, after eight years of use as a temporary bridge during the winter, the Pontresina Bridge for pedestrians was transported to the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne for a detailed assessment of the structural safety, service ...
When building new bridge structures, or widening or replacing existing bridges, the duration of on site work has a significant influence not only on the costs, but also on the potentially harmful effects (noise, pollution, traffic jam, deviation) of the co ...
The management of existing road infrastructures is a multidisciplinary activity that involves structural engineering, material science, management, economics and ecology. The objective is to achieve maximum availability of road links at minimum societal co ...
The curing reaction of an epoxy resin [diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA)] combined with a methyl-hexahydrophtalic anhydride (MHHPA) hardener and a benzyldimethylamine (BDMA) accelerator was studied over a temperature range of 60140°C to build its is ...
