Spike anchors are a promising way to enhance the maximum capacity and post-peak load-strain response of externally-bonded fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials for retrofitting of concrete structures. Although laboratory...
Decarbonisation of the energy industry and enforcement of strict targets for operational energy consumption means that non-operational greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions, also known as embodied carbon (EC), will soon represent...

This paper explores the potential of thin concrete shells as low-carbon alternatives to floor slabs and beams, which typically make up the majority of structural material in multi-storey buildings. A simple and practical...
There is no reason why concrete elements should be prismatic. Concrete is mouldable and can be cast in efficient forms which follow the stresses varying along the length of a concrete element. One option to achieve this is to...
The construction industry has received attention due to its significant contribution to global carbon emissions. In this paper, conventional design and construction practices of reinforced concrete beams are scrutinised to...
