As jointed plain concrete pavements (JPCP) age in South Korea, the cost of pavement maintenance is increasing annually. To extend the life of jointed concrete pavements through preventive maintenance, this study used 2017 pavement management system data to analyze the effects of traffic volume, alkali–silica reaction (ASR) grade, age, smoothness, and damaged area on the remodeling index (RMI—a measure of expressway pavement condition). In addition, this study evaluates the final RMI as well as the corresponding pavement condition and change in RMI value after conducting preventive maintenance in lieu of resurfacing or overlaying. The results demonstrated that the effect of ASR grade increased as the RMI forecast year increased and that change in surface distress (△SD) increased with age (most intensively when the pavement was 15–20 years of age). Moreover, change in international roughness index (△IRI) increased with age and traffic volume (similarly within 15–20 years of pavement age). Hence, preventive maintenance is a must for sections with high traffic volume and age even if the RMI is low. Finally, performing repairs through preventive maintenance decreases the number of expressway sections requiring resurfacing and overlaying, thus extending the life of the concrete pavement.

Many researchers have studied explosion prevention and fire resistance of high-strength concrete mixed with organic fiber and steel fibers. The fire resistance of high-performance fiber reinforced cement composites is desirable in terms of physical and mechanical properties. However, the use of a polymer as an alternative to organic fiber has not been clearly studied. In this study, a slurry infiltration method was used to obtain slurry-infiltrated fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (SIFRCCs) specimens. Powder polymer was used instead of organic fibers during mixing of the slurry. The compressive and flexural strengths of the specimens after 1 hr of high temperature exposure according to the KS F 2257 (ISO 834) standard fire-temperature curve were measured. The addition of the polymer before and after high temperature (about 945 °C) exposure affected the strength of the SIFRCCs. The compressive and flexural strengths were decreased after exposure to high temperature in comparison with SIFRCCs without polymer because polymer create capillary pores due to melting and burning when exposure to high temperature. This minimizes the vapor pressure inside the concrete model and reduces the failure of the concrete model. The experimental results showed that the flexural strength at a high temperature for 1.0 % polymer content was the highest at 53.8 MPa. The flexural strength was reduced by 40~50% when compared to the flexural strength before high temperature exposure and comparing to SIFRCCs without polymer, the compressive strength in 1.5% polymer is lower, owing to voids that are created in the SIFRCCs after exposure to a high temperature.

The recent abnormal temperature phenomena such as the rise of global mean temperature and sea level due to global climate change are clear threats that can no longer be overlooked to the human beings who have pursued indiscriminate development and rapid growth. Climate change has emerged as a serious risk that threatens the survival of the entire human race from the environmental and ecological aspects, despite international efforts for several decades. The CO2 concentration in the atmosphere has increased by approximately 39% since the industrial revolution. Even if carbon emissions are stopped right now, it is expected to take at least 50–200 years to return to the CO2 level before the industrial revolution. Therefore, we conducted an experimental study to develop a carbon-capturing concrete that has active as well as passive carbon reduction functions using blast-furnace slag, an industrial byproduct, instead of cement. For active carbon reduction, we used calcium hydroxide and sodium silicate as carbon capture activators, and conducted tests on mechanical properties and durability characteristics.

Conventional concrete is a brittle material with a very low tensile strength as a result of compressive strength and tensile strain. In this study, the flexural behavior characteristics of slurry-infiltrated fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (SIFRCCs) based on slurry-infiltrated fiber concrete (SIFCON), such as high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs), were analyzed to maximize the fiber volume fraction and increase resistance to loads with very short working times (such as explosions or impacts). For extensive experimental variables, one fiber aspect ratio and three fiber volume fractions (6%, 5%, and 4%) were designed, and the flexural toughness and strength were figured out with respect to variables. A maximum flexural strength of 45 MPa was presented for a fiber volume fraction of 6%, and it was found that by increasing the fiber volume fraction the flexural strength and toughness increased. The test results with respect to fiber volume fraction revealed that after the initial crack, the load of SIFRCCs frequently increased because of the high fiber volume fraction. In addition to maximum strength, acceptable strength was found, which could have a positive effect on brittle fractures in structures where an accidental load is applied (such as an impact or explosion).

The compressive stress of concrete is used as a design variable for reinforced concrete structures in design standards. However, as the performance-based design is being used with increasing varieties and strengths of concrete and reinforcement bars, mechanical properties other than the compressive stress of concrete are sometimes used as major design variables. In particular, the evaluation of the mechanical properties of concrete is crucial when using fiber-reinforced concrete. Studies of high volume fractions in established compressive behavior prediction equations are insufficient compared to studies of conventional fiber-reinforced concrete. Furthermore, existing prediction equations for the mechanical properties of high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composite and high-strength concrete have limitations in terms of the strength and characteristics of contained fibers (diameter, length, volume fraction) even though the stress-strain relationship is determined by these factors. Therefore, this study developed a high-performance slurry-infiltrated fiber-reinforced cementitious composite that could prevent the fiber ball phenomenon, a disadvantage of conventional fiber-reinforced concrete, and maximize the fiber volume fraction. Then, the behavior characteristics under compressive stress were analyzed for fiber volume fractions of 4%, 5%, and 6%.

Fire in a tunnel or an underground structure is characterized by a rise in temperature above 1000 °C in 5–10 min, which is due to the characteristics of the closed space. The Permanent International Association of Road Congresses has reported that serious damage can occur in an underground structure as a consequence of high temperatures of up to 1400 °C when a fire accident involving a tank lorry occurs in an underground space. In these circumstances, it is difficult to approach the scene and extinguish the fire, and the result is often casualties and damage to facilities. When a concrete structure is exposed to a high temperature, spalling or dehydration occurs. As a result, the cross section of the structure is lost, and the structural stability declines to a great extent. Furthermore, the mechanical and thermal properties of concrete are degraded by the temperature hysteresis that occurs at high temperatures. Consequently, interest in the fire safety of underground structures, including tunnels, has steadily increased. This study conducted a fire simulation to analyze the effects of a fire caused by dangerous-goods vehicles on the tunnel structure. In addition, a fire exposure test of reinforced-concrete members was conducted using the Richtlinien für die Ausstattung und den Betrieb von Straßentunneln (RABT) fire curve, which is used to simulate a tunnel fire.

Concrete has high compressive strength, but low tensile strength, bending strength, toughness, low resistance to cracking, and brittle fracture characteristics. To overcome these problems, fiber-reinforced concrete, in which the strength of concrete is improved by inserting fibers, is being used. Recently, high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) have been extensively researched. The disadvantages of conventional concrete such as low tensile stress, strain capacity, and energy absorption capacity, have been overcome using HPFRCCs, but they have a weakness in that the fiber reinforcement has only 2% fiber volume fraction. In this study, slurry infiltrated fiber reinforced cementitious composites (SIFRCCs), which can maximize the fiber volume fraction (up to 8%), was developed, and an experimental study on the tensile behavior of SIFRCCs with varying fiber volume fractions (4%, 5%, and 6%) was carried out through direct tensile tests. The results showed that the specimen with high fiber volume fraction exhibited high direct tensile strength and improved brittleness. As per the results, the direct tensile strength is approximately 15.5 MPa, and the energy absorption capacity was excellent. Furthermore, the bridging effect of steel fibers induced strain hardening behavior and multiple cracks, which increased the direct tensile strength and energy absorption capacity.

In this paper, comparative assessment of failure fatigue lives of thin laminated cementitious composites (LCCs) modeled by two modeling approaches—double-parameter Weibull distribution model and triple-parameter distribution model—was carried out. LCCs were fabricated of ordinary Portland cement (OPC), fly ash cenosphere (FAC), quartz sand, and reinforcing meshes and fibers. The failure fatigue life assessment at various probabilities by the two-parameter model was based on numerical calculations whereas the three-parameter model was applied by an open source program—ProFatigue®. Respective parameters, shape and scale parameters in the two-parameter Weibull distribution model while shape, scale, and location parameters in three-parameter model were determined, and the corresponding probabilistic fatigue lives at various failure probabilities were calculated. It is concluded that the two-parameter model is more accurate in probabilistic fatigue life assessment of double-layer mesh-reinforced LCCs, whereas for single-layer reinforced LCCs, both models could be used at a fair confidence level.

This paper investigates the properties of steam cured recycled aggregate concrete (RAC), in an attempt to determine the optimum conditions of the steam-curing cycle for RAC, and incorporating high early strength cement (HESC). Varying conditions of steam curing were employed. The steam-curing cycle was set based on the peak temperature, and the duration for which the peak temperature was maintained. Three peak temperatures were used for steam curing, 50 °C, 60 °C, and 70 °C, maintained for up to two hours. The compressive strength results indicated that the steam-curing cycle employing the peak temperature of 50 °C maintained for one hour with a total duration of four hours was the optimum for strength development, both at the early and late stages of hydration. Determining the optimum steam-curing temperature and duration will help reduce the associated curing cost, thus further economizing the production cost of recycled aggregate concrete.

This study investigated the punching shear behavior of full-scale, two-way concrete slabs reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars, which are known as noncorrosive reinforcement. The relatively low modulus of elasticity of GFRP bars affects the large deflection of flexural members, however, applying these to two-way concrete slabs can compensate the weakness of the flexural stiffness due to an arching action with supporting girders. The test results demonstrated that the two-way concrete slabs with GFRP bars satisfied the allowable deflection and crack width under the service load specified by the design specification even in the state of the minimum reinforcement ratio. Previous predicting equations and design equations largely overestimated the measured punching shear strength when the slab was supported by reinforced concrete (RC) girders. The strength difference can be explained by the fact that the flexural behavior of the supporting RC beam girders reduces the punching shear strength because of the additional deflection of RC beam girders. Therefore, for more realistic estimations of the punching shear strength of two-way concrete slabs with GFRP bars, the boundary conditions of the concrete slabs should be carefully considered. This is because the stiffness degradation of supporting RC beam girders may influence the punching shear strength.

This study introduces a glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP)-steel hybrid bar with a core of a deformed steel bar (steel core). Six types of the hybrid cross section were considered, and a total of 48 tensile specimens were tested by the uniaxial tensile test to measure the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity of the GFRP hybrid bar. The results of the uniaxial tensile test revealed that the GFRP hybrid bar showed higher modulus of elasticity and lesser ultimate tensile strength than those shown by a normal GFRP bar. The stress–strain relationship showed a bi-linear behavior indicating good ductility against the brittle failure of a normal GFRP bar. Among all the steel core having a diameter of 19.1 mm, the bar with a core diameter of 9.53 mm exhibited the highest tangent modulus of elasticity. A tensile stress–strain model was suggested for the GFRP hybrid bar having an outer diameter of 19.1 mm and a core diameter of 9.53 mm. This was in good agreement with the experimental results. The suggested stress–strain model can be applied for structural design or analysis of concrete structures such as bridge deck slabs.

The combined effects of preexposure to high temperature and alkalinity on the tensile performance of structural GFRP reinforcing bars are experimentally investigated. A total of 105 GFRP bar specimens are preexposed to high temperature between 120°C and 200°C and then immersed into pH of 12.6 alkaline solution for 100, 300, and 660 days. From the test results, the elastic modulus obtained at 300 immersion days is almost the same as those of 660 immersion days. For all alkali immersion days considered in the test, the preheated specimens provide slightly lower elastic modulus than the unpreheated specimens, showing only 8% maximum difference. The tensile strength decreases for all testing cases as the increase of the alkaline immersing time, regardless of the prehearing levels. The tensile strength of the preheated specimens is about 90% of the unpreheated specimen for 300 alkali immersion days. However, after 300 alkali immersion days the tensile strengths are almost identical to each other. Such results indicate that the tensile strength and elastic modulus of the structural GFRP reinforcing bars are closely related to alkali immersion days, not much related to the preheating levels. The specimens show a typical tensile failure around the preheated location.

High-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) are characterized by unique tensile strain hardening and multiple microcracking behaviors. The HPFRCC, which demonstrates remarkable properties such as strength, ductility, toughness, durability, stiffness, and thermal resistance, is a class of fiber cement composite with fine aggregates. It can withstand tensile stresses by forming distributed microcracks owing to the embedded fibers in the concrete, which improve the energy absorption capacity and apparent ductility. This high energy absorbing capacity can be enhanced further by an external stiff fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP). Basalt fabric is externally bonded as a sheet on concrete materials to enhance the durability and resistance to fire and other environmental attacks. This study investigates the flexural performance of an HPFRCC that is externally reinforced with multiple layers of basalt FRP. The HPFRCC considered in the study contains steel fibers at a volume fraction of 8%.

High-performance fibre-reinforced cementitious composite (HPFRCC) is characterized by multiple functioning composite materials comprising fibre and cement matrix. HPFRCC is able to withstand tensile stress forming distributed micro-cracks since embedded fibres in concrete are to improve energy-absorption capacity and apparent ductility. This characteristic can be applied to protect structures under an extreme state of loading, such as blast or impact. In order to determine a mix proportion, this study considered various variables in the mix. Following experimental results, this study suggests an optimum mix proportion of HPFRCC and investigated fundamental properties of the considered mixes. Flexural performance is one of the representing characteristics of the high-fracture energy-absorbing materials. This study investigated the flexural performance of HPFRCC, which used high-strength steel fibres with volume fraction 8%. Under ASTM 1609, load–deflection curves were obtained. The major test variables include silica fume replacement ratio 0 and 15% and exposure temperature, ambient and 400 °C. The flexural strength was similar to the compressive strength and the absorbed fracture energy was relatively greater than other typical HPFRCC. This may be a composite reaction of the strong bonding between fibre and matrix and high-compressive strength of the matrix itself.
