A Study of the Flexural Behavior of Fiber-Reinforced Concretes Exposed to Moderate Temperatures
Caballero-Jorna, Marta; Roig-Flores, Marta; SERNA, PEDRO Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (2021-06-24)The use of synthetic fibers in fiber-reinforced concretes (FRCs) is often avoided due to the mistrust of lower performance at changing temperatures. This work examines the effect of moderate temperatures on the flexural ... -
Characterization of Glass Powder from Glass Recycling Process Waste and Preliminary Testing
Roig-Flores, Marta; Gimenez-Carbo, Ester; Soriano, Lourdes; SERNA, PEDRO MDPI (2021)This work studies the possibility of incorporating different proportions of glass powder from the waste glass (rejected material called fine cullet) produced during the glass recycling process into the manufacturing of ... -
Effects of healing start time and duration on conventional and high-performance concretes incorporating SAP, crystalline admixture, and sepiolite: A comparative study
Doostkami, Hesam; Formagini, Sidiclei; SERNA, PEDRO; Roig-Flores, Marta Elsevier (2023-12-28)This research investigates the self-healing capability of conventional and high-performance concrete containing either a superabsorbent polymer (SAP), a crystalline admixture (CA), or water-encapsulated in sepiolite by ... -
Influence of short-term operating temperatures on compression and flexural behaviour of Macro Synthetic and Steel Fibre Reinforced Concretes
Caballero-Jorna, Marta; Roig-Flores, Marta; SERNA, PEDRO Elsevier (2023-01-21)This study investigates the influence of operating temperatures on the mechanical properties of Fibre Reinforced Concretes (FRCs) when exposed during short-term periods (3 days). The studied parameters include types of ... -
Multi-performance experimental assessment of autogenous and crystalline admixture-stimulated self-healing in UHPFRCCs: Validation and reliability analysis through an inter-laboratory study
Lo Monte, Francesco; Repesa, Lamija; Snoeck, Didier; Doostkami, Hesam; Roig-Flores, Marta; Jackson, Sam J.P.; Blanco, Ana; Lozano Násner, Albany Milena; Borg, Ruben Paul; Schröfl, Christof; Giménez, Mercedes; Alonso, Maria Cruz; SERNA, PEDRO; de Belie, Nele D.; Ferrara, Liberato Elsevier (2023-10-05)The huge benefits brought by the use of Ultra High-Performance Fibre-Reinforced Cementitious Composites (UHPFRCCs) include their high “intrinsic” durability, which is guaranteed by (1) the compact microstructure and (2) ... -
Preliminary Study of the Fresh and Hard Properties of UHPC That Is Used to Produce 3D Printed Mortar
Gimenez-Carbo, Ester; Torres, Raquel; Coll, Hugo; Roig-Flores, Marta; SERNA, PEDRO; Soriano, Lourdes MDPI (2022-04-04)Three-dimensional printed concrete (3DPC) is a relatively recent technology that may be very important in changing the traditional construction industry. The principal advantages of its use are more rapid construction, ... -
Preliminary study on the fresh and mechanical properties of UHPC made with recycled UHPC aggregates
Roig-Flores, Marta; Borg, Ruben Paul; Ruiz-Muñoz, Cecilia; Mezquida-Alcaraz, Eduardo J.; Gimenez-Carbo, Ester; Lozano Násner, Albany Milena; SERNA, PEDRO Taylor & Francis (2021-11-09)The recycling of construction and demolition waste material reduces disposal of material and also the consumption of resources, therefore promoting sustainability in construction. Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is ... -
Self-healing capability of conventional,high-performance, and Ultra High-Performance Concrete with commercial bacteria characterized by means of water and chloride penetration
Doostkami, Hesam; Estacio Cumberbatch, Javier de Jesús; Formagini, Sidiclei; SERNA, PEDRO; Roig-Flores, Marta Elsevier (2023-08-11)This study analyzes the self-healing capability of conventional, High-Performance, and Ultra High-Performance Concrete specimens, incorporating commercial bacteria products that are easily accessible, marketed, and affordable ... -
Self-healing efficiency of Ultra High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete through permeability to chlorides
Doostkami, Hesam; Roig-Flores, Marta; SERNA, PEDRO Elsevier (2021-12-06)This study presents a novel methodology to evaluate the self-healing capability of Ultra High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) designed to compare conventional concrete types. The procedure used combines ...
