Sentence examples for use of concrete structures from inspiring English sources

A long-standing interest in the response of concrete subjected to dynamic loads stems from the widespread use of concrete structures in seismic region.

Nevertheless, certain limitations of the DIC technique exist when used in testing of concrete structures such as the sensitivity to external light sources and preparation of the measurement surface, loss of data points after spalling of cover concrete, and the inability of the used algorithm to identify cracks and report crack widths.

Until 2001 only the three first kilometers (two first miles) of the line were used, for transport of concrete structures, but then the Norwegian National Rail Administration stopped all traffic on the line.

Carbon fiber cement paste piezoresistive sensors (CFCPS) are made of piezoresistivity of carbon fiber cement paste and mainly used for local monitoring of concrete structures.

The first concept of microcracked band is often used during numerical computations of concrete structures and a crack band model can be applied in design practice where relatively simple methods of calculations are preferred.

In this context, this paper presents a study aiming to experimentally characterize the tensile creep behaviour of an epoxy-based adhesive currently used in the strengthening of concrete structures with carbon FRP (CFRP) systems.

Near-Surface mounted carbon fiber reinforced polymer (NSM CFRP) has been used efficiently to increase the load-carrying capacity of concrete structures using epoxy adhesives.

The structural performance of concrete structures reinforced using glass-fiber-reinforced-polymer (GFRP) rebars is sometime compromised by debonding failure.
