Editorial
We are now releasing the June 2013 issue of IBRACON Structures and Materials Journal (Volume 6, Number 3). This issue contains eight articles on remarkable topics of concrete materials and structures. The flexibility modeling of reinforced concrete frame joints is the topic for the first article. The second article discusses numerical and experimental study of a waffle slab designed to serve as a tennis court floor. The next article addresses the evaluation of nonconventional concrete hollow blocks by destructive and non-destructive testing. The fourth article draws on the influential factors on the rheological behavior of adhesive mortar available in the market. An Image-based method for monitoring of crack opening on masonry and concrete using mobile platform is presented in the fifth article.
The sixth article presents a numerical analysis of two-pile caps with embedded sockets, subject to eccentric compression. The seventh article describes an application of photogrammetry in the analysis of plastic rotation and tension stiffening effect in beams. The issue closes with an article on a numerical approach of the bond stress behavior of steel bars embedded in self-compacting concrete and in ordinary concrete using beam models
We acknowledge the authors' and reviewers' contribution to this issue.
