Concretes containing waste-based materials under active confinement

The newly developed waste-based concrete (WBC) is a viable eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to conventional concrete, which has the potential of decreasing the negative impact of concrete production on the eco-system. Therefore, understanding the behavior of WBCs in structural applications is important. To this effect, this paper presents the first study on the behavior of actively confined WBC under axial compression loading. Two...
