Several costly precautions for reducing temperature of concrete are specified in construction specifications for concreting in hot weather so that workability and compressive strength of concrete are not adversely affected. This paper presents the results of tests conducted for modulus of rupture a

Experimental data relating to standard rates of loading are studied on concrete control specimens 28 days after casting. Normal concrete with an oven-dry density in the range 2000-2800 kg/m3 is used for the specimens. The rates of compression are about 0.3 N/mm\*/sec, or a strain rate of about 30 x
This article presents a simulation scheme to predict the effect of fibre anisotropy on composite tensile failure strength at room and low temperatures. The simulation model combines the shear lag equation with the chain of bundles probability model to describe the composite failure behaviour. The ef
