Efficient nano materials for consolidation, cleaning and hydrophobization of porous historic materials have been developed in several European and national research proje [...]

Waste concrete accounts for a substantial fraction of construction waste, and the recycling of waste concrete as concrete aggregate for construction is an important chall [...]

The gallery wall on which the Bas-reliefs are etched of the Bayon temple in Angkor is made of sandstones. The deterioration caused by penetration of rainwater or groundwa [...]

Properties of a molten slag and concrete containing the molten slag as a fine aggregate were investigated, which was emitted in Kure City in Hiroshima Prefecture. Water t [...]

Neoclassical “stucco” decorations were added in 1840 to the 14th century church of San Francesco in Fano (Italy) in order to decorate its interior, but, as a conseque [...]

The effective design of a mortar for repairing masonry depends on a clear understanding of its function within masonry. The functions of mortar materials in masonry are c [...]

Iron-welding slag is one of industrial wastes discharged in large quantities from shipyards. This study aimed at proposing an idea of utilizing the iron-welding slag as a [...]

Reinforced concrete structures are widely constructed in the Persian Gulf region for infrastructures of ports and oil exploration. But these structures are increasingly b [...]

Fracture energy tests were carried out on Portland blast furnace cement-type B (BB) concrete where as an internal curing material, partial replacement of course aggregate [...]

An entire concrete waste reuse model for producing recycled aggregate class H concrete was established with the objective of recycling concrete waste generated during ant [...]

Elastic properties of carbon-incorporated AFm (Al2O3-Fe2O3-mono) phases are experimentally and theoretically calculated. From high-pressure x-ray diffraction, the bulk mo [...]

Demolished concrete is often recycled as a crusher-run in Japan. It captures CO2 as the new surface is exposed to the air. This uptake is caused by carbonations of hydrat [...]

This study aims to clarify the amount of CO2 fixation in demolished concrete under different exposure conditions, and in addition, it aims at computing the LCCO2 (Life Cy [...]
