On 0+876. 5 - 0+906. 5 section in No. 2 diversion tunnel of Tianshengqiao I hydropower station, for many reasons, the serious defects on the surface of reinforced concrete lead the strength not to meet the requirement of designers.
The concrete construction is then utilized for analysis of two portfolio optimization problems for financial market models driven by stable-like processes.
The correlations are established between the direct UPV and indirect UPV in the concrete casting direction as well as in the horizontal direction and semi-direct UPV measurements via statistical analysis.
These values were suggested as references of engineering applications and of the amendment of the current Chinese design code of steel reinforced concrete composite structures.
Four-point bending flexural tests were conducted to one full-size reinforced concrete (RC) beam and three full-size RC beams strengthened with carbon fiber plates (CFPs).
In this paper, two reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) and attached with thick-painted fire resistant coating were tested for fire resistance following the standard fire testing procedures.
