It could, therefore, be used to monitor traffic levels even to the extent of distinguishing between cars and lorries.There are further possible applications for strain-sensitive concrete.
Dr Chung suggests that it would cost much less to pave the middle of each lane with her concrete, which would be detected by bouncing radio waves off it.Another use for strain-sensitive concrete might be to detect (and then to mitigate the effects of) earthquakes.
For conventional carbon steel, the time to corrosion initiation is found to be most sensitive to concrete cover depth, followed by chloride diffusion coefficient, with normalized sensitivity coefficients of about 2 and − 1.
Under Elia Kazan's sensitive but concrete direction, the theatre has solved them admirably.
It can be concluded that the proposed damage detection method was quite effective and sensitive to concrete.
When failure is governed by fiber rupture, the torsional strength was not sensitive to concrete compressive strength.
Sensitive components of concrete structures are construction joints that appear both at "in situ" and pre-cast structures.
John Hix, an architect from Canada, is providing an example of what a renewed Vieques could look like: spare, environmentally sensitive buildings of concrete, equipped with wooden shutters or overhead steel security doors.
This study provides an example for seascape architecture of coastal structures using ecologically sensitive designs and concrete technologies that enhance the structures' biological and ecological value while contributing to structural integrity.
The maximum temperatures of the fuel compact and the reactor vessel are less sensitive to the concrete and surrounding soil properties, those are the thermal conductivity and volumetric heat capacity, when the insulation material is used.
On the other hand, they are less sensitive to the applied concrete class.
