Just look around. Concrete columns hold up potted plants, drip water or turn modern landscapes into ancient ruins. So why not make one of your own? Don't hesitate because you think concrete is ...

A new study demonstrates that the behavior of fiber reinforced polymer reinforced concrete columns is very similar to that of the conventional steel counterpart. Thus, for structures that function in ...

Conventional bridge construction involves a time-consuming process associated with traffic delays and risk to public safety. In contrast, prefabricated bridge systems can expedite construction, thus ...

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns represent a mature yet evolving area of structural engineering. By encasing concrete within a steel tube, these composite members harness the compressive ...

Engineers at Washington University have developed a design for the framework of columns and beams that support reinforced concrete bridges so they will better resist earthquakes and be erected faster ...

Lee Cowen, managing director of Milbank Concrete Products, explores how innovations in precast concrete columns and stairs are transforming how the construction industry operates Data from ...
