Abstract:

While completing concrete repairs, is it necessary to remove sound concrete if a nearby reinforcing bar exhibits rust? Can terms like corrosion or rust be used interchangeably? This month’s Q&A provides answers to these questions as well as a discussion on various factors influencing the extent of a repair of corrosion-related damage in concrete structures.

Abstract:

This article introduces the latest fiber-reinforced polymer panel system developed by the author—SPiRe®+. These panels can serve as formwork, corrosion resistant reinforcement, and waterproofing. With their flat and smooth exterior face and protruding T-profiles on the interior face, the panels act as reinforcing elements for strengthening beams, slabs, and walls.

Symposium Papers

Volume:

365

Abstract:

This Symposium Volume reports on the latest advancements related to the various facets of modeling and performance assessment of concrete structures. The volume contains 10 papers that were presented at the ACI Convention held in Toronto on April 1st, 2025. The symposium was dedicated to celebrate Prof. Frank J. Vecchio’s extraordinary research contributions and accomplishments in the development of behavioral models and analytical tools for the assessment of concrete structures. The papers cover different aspects related to modeling and performance assessment of concrete structures including developments of the Modified Compression Field Theory, finite element modeling of punching shear in slabs, behavior and modeling of steel fiber reinforced concrete members subjected to torsion, modeling of concrete structures subjected to impact loading, behavior and modeling of slender walls, modeling of concrete frame elements, behavior and modeling of GFRP reinforced members, crack-based assessment of concrete structures, and advancements in modeling deterioration mechanisms and repaired concrete structures. Sincere acknowledgements are extended to all authors, speakers and reviewers as well as to ACI staff for making this symposium a success. Anca-Cristina Ferche, Editor Vahid Sadeghian, Editor
