“…Extensive research was carried out over the past decades, among others at the Universities of Stuttgart (Sobek, 1987;Bögle et al, 2003), Delft (Schipper, 2015), and Graz (Peters et al, 2017) to reduce formwork costs and to allow for a resurgence of these impressive structures -the overall objective being to avoid intensive formwork installation by using innovative fabrication methods. Despite these efforts, there are only a few projects (for instance Stuttgart's new railway station S21 (Blandini et al, 2011) that have gone beyond an experimental character (Kovaleva et al, 2019;Popescu et al, 2019). Kuwait International Airport Terminal 2 defines a turning point with regard to the large-scale use of wide-span reinforced concrete shells.…”

As the editors of FABRICATE 2020, we have many people to thank. We received over 250 submissions from 45 countries; we would like to thank everyone who responded to the call for works, for the extraordinary breadth, depth and quality of the work submitted that made the exacting process of review, selection and curatorship so challenging. We are grateful to all authors and collaborators on every selected project, and everyone who generously agreed to present their work.We are indebted to more than 50 distinguished peer reviewers, listed below, who fulfilled their duties with impeccable professionalism and care during the early northern hemisphere summer/southern hemisphere winter 2019. Thank you also to our wonderful 2020 keynote presenters and 2017 keynote presenters, not only for your respective provocative orations, but also for your generosity in participating in the considered in-depth conversations published in this book, often at strange hours of the night; and to Chairs of our 2011, 2014, and 2017 outings for their counsel.For its fourth iteration, the FABRICATE conference has returned to The Bartlett, UCL, where it is co-chaired by Jane Burry and Jenny Sabin with Bob Sheil, a partnership between three universities on three continents: UCL,

“…Found in many shells of gastropods and bivalves, nacre is composed of ~95% aragonite and ~5% protein and polysaccharide polymers [11][12][13][14] . Its formation starts with an ordered layered framework composed of a small amount of insoluble chitin bers and proteins.…”

Mortar" and "brick" structure is a general model to construct nanocomposites. A lm with "brick-andmortar" structure was prepared by LBL (Layer-by-Layer) technique using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) as the exible material or "mortar" and mica as the rigid material or "brick". The lm deposited on a glass slide after self-assembly cycles was ~3μm thick with an uneven, wavy surface. The lm showed enhanced mechanical properties with the hardness and indentation modulus values up to 6.14 GPa and 68.41 GPa, respectively. It was found that the hardness and elastic toughness depended on the ratio of mica, the number of self-assembly cycles, and the pretreatment method of the mica suspension. The self-assembly process was believed to be attributable to the hydrogen bonds between the silanol groups of mica and the hydroxyl groups of PVA and carbonyl groups of PMMA.

“…Strieder et al (2018) constructed a simplified mass concrete structure model and found that the gradient concrete can reduce cracking risk during hardening. Kovaleva et al (2019) used the FGC shell in Rosenstein Pavilion and found that the FGC material application can reduce the weight of structural components. Chan et al (2020) studied the influences of aggregate type, reinforcement layer thickness, fiber content, and other variables on the mechanical properties of the FGC.…”

Mechanical Behavior of the Novel Gradient Concrete Tower of a Cable-Stayed Bridge

In this paper, the novel gradient concrete is innovatively applied to the bridge towers of Chizhou Yangtze River Bridge to solve the cracking and insufficient durability problems of concrete towers. Fiber-reinforced concrete is used in the outer functional area of the bridge tower, to significantly improve its crack resistance during construction and service. Moreover, the integrated design of anti-cracking and mechanical properties of tower materials is achieved. To study the performance of the novel functional gradient concrete (FGC) tower, the mechanical properties of the FGC tower material are tested, and the overall finite element stress is analyzed. Based on the material properties, the mechanical behavior of the cable-stayed bridge tower is studied. The temperature and stress of the FGC tower during the generation of the hydration heat are compared with that of the ordinary concrete tower. The crack resistance of the FGC tower is analyzed by the finite element method. The results show that the FGC tower has good mechanical properties and durability for the cable-stayed bridge towers.
