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 ...

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 ...

Some of Washington state's busiest bridges have a surprising design feature deep inside their massive structures. It's air. The concrete columns supporting these bridges are hollow, and it could mean ...

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 ...
