Part of this phenomenon is attributed to the widespread use of modern construction materials with low albedo, particularly for road pavements. While outdoor albedo measurement standards exist, there is currently no consensus on a standardized laboratory method. This article aims to develop a multi-material, laboratory-to-field scale law for predicting outdoor albedo using only laboratory tests. This predictive law is intended to facilitate the design of new light-colored pavements and surfaces, without the need for full-scale construction and testing. The American standard ASTM E1918 provides guidance for accurate and reliable albedo measurements on low-sloped surfaces; however, it presents several limitations, which are discussed in this paper, and it is demonstrated that albedo measurements can be reliably performed on-site under a broader range of conditions than those specified by the standard. Additionally, although some studies have explored laboratory-based albedo characterization, no agreement has been reached regarding the testing apparatus or conditions. In this work, a parametric study was conducted to develop a laboratory procedure. Special attention was given to the type of lighting and sensor sensitivity in order to accurately replicate solar illumination and ensure reliable measurements. Colorimetry was used to confirm material consistency across laboratory and field scales. The final transformation equation proposed is simple to apply and sufficiently accurate to provide reliable predictions of outdoor albedo.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1617/s11527-025-02787-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145078897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A hydro-chemo-mechanical constitutive modeling of cemented granular materials was developed using the Drucker-Prager strength criterion and the Weibull distribution as a basis. Three components of the granular material during chemical corrosion were focused on: depositional bond (DP) dissolution, diagenetic bond (DG) dissolution and grain dissolution. Under acidic conditions, the specimens exhibited progressively greater chemical damage with decreasing pH. Conversely, in alkaline solutions, damage progression was mitigated by the formation of new reaction products that filled surface fissures and pores. The chemical factor (<i>D</i><sub>c</sub>) was determined by considering the initial concentration and time of hydrogen and hydroxide ions. The degree of acidic damage or alkaline enhancement was obtained by calculating the chemical variables for chemical aqueous solutions at pH 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11, and the data showed that the acidic solution at pH 3 had the highest degree of deterioration. In addition, the constitutive model was compared with experimental data obtained by earlier researchers. The results show that the stress–strain behaviour of cemented granular materials, particularly sandstones, under different pH and peritectic conditions can be predicted by using a hydro-chemo-mechanical constitutive model incorporating chemical factors. This theoretical framework provides a valuable reference for geotechnical engineering in the presence of chemical corrosion.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145078912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although PSC has been widely adopted in large-scale constructions such as bridges, buildings, and tanks due to its long service life, the accurate long-term prediction of prestress (PS) losses remains a critical issue, as time-dependent reductions in prestressing force—caused by concrete creep, drying shrinkage, anchorage slip, and steel relaxation—can compromise structural integrity and durability. Despite its importance, most previous studies have relied on short-term laboratory tests or numerical simulations, and long-term field data—especially for ultra-high-strength tendons—remain extremely limited. In this study, PS losses were monitored continuously over approximately 10 years in post-tensioned PSC beams embedded with steel tendons of three different tensile strengths: 1860 MPa, 2160 MPa, and 2400 MPa. The measured strain data were compared against prediction equations provided in major design codes to assess their applicability to modern high-strength tendons. The experimental results demonstrated that tendons with higher tensile strengths (2160 MPa and 2400 MPa) exhibited distinct long-term PS loss characteristics, including smaller loss rates and different seasonal and spatial variation patterns, compared to lower-strength tendons. The existing code-based prediction equations, originally developed for 1860 MPa tendons, significantly underestimated the long-term losses in high-strength tendons, highlighting the need for model refinement. Based on the long-term measurements, the study proposes modified PS loss prediction equations that better reflect the time-dependent behavior of ultra-high-strength tendons. These findings not only offer rare empirical data for validation but also provide critical insight for improving code-based PS loss predictions, with the potential to influence future revisions of design provisions for PSC structures.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":691,"journal":{"name":"Materials and Structures","volume":"58 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145078896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, the study assesses the accuracy of existing analytical models that correlate concrete compressive strength with other mechanical properties, and existing formulations for modeling shrinkage and creep strains over time.

Shrinkage and creep deformations were assessed using specimens tested under constant temperature of 20 °C and relative humidity of 60%. The results showed that the use of seawater slightly reduced mechanical performance at an early age (up to 15% for compressive strength and 34% for tensile strength), with differences diminishing over time. Regarding shrinkage and creep, SWC exhibited reduced shrinkage but experienced higher creep strains than FWC. Furthermore, the ACI formulations demonstrated adequate accuracy in predicting shrinkage for both SWC and FWC compositions. These findings suggest that seawater can be used as mixing water in concrete without long-term detrimental effects.
