| Abstract: |
Concrete engineers and researchers have been developed durable reinforce concrete technologies for long time. However, we have not reached the goal which gives us a perfect technology against deterioration of reinforced concrete. Basically concrete itself is high durable material. And we recognize this fact when we see Roman concrete structures are still working now. The technologies described in this paper are the challenge to derive the solution against deterioration of reinforced concrete. This research and development has been taking for about 30 years. Then a non-metallic highway bridge is under design and will be built in 2020 with the key technologies of aramid fiber tendons, fiber reinforced concrete and butterfly web. |
