Crack kinematics prediction in concrete structures and assessment of their criticality

Ludivine Menoud

The observation of cracks in normally functioning reinforced concrete (RC) structures is expected as the tensile strength of concrete is relatively low. However, one or more of those cracks can start to propagate with increasing crack openings, localizing ...

The elastic limit tensile stress of UHPFRC is governed by contributions of the cementitious matrix and the fibrous skeleton. This paper finds that fiber orientation has significant influence on the matrix tensile strength of UHPFRC, while this is not consi ...
