Comprehensive sustainability strategy for the emerging ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) industry
Lande, Ingrid; Thorstensen, Rein Terje (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The concrete industry is facing significant challenges in substantially reducing CO2 emissions, recycling waste materials and limiting the use of resources. Using ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is one of the many ... -
Evaluating the effect of mineralogy and mechanical stability of recycled excavation materials by Los Angeles and micro-Deval test
Adomako, Solomon; Thorstensen, Rein Terje; Akhtar, Naureen; Norby, Mariann; Engelsen, Christian John; Danner, Tobias; Barbieri, Diego Maria (Chapter, 2021) -
From Waste to Resource – Utilising Residue from Ready-Made Concrete as New Aggregate
Adomako, Solomon; Heimdal, Anette; Thorstensen, Rein Terje (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A new admixture is available, to reduce the sludge produced from the cleansing of production and transportation equipment in the fresh concrete industry. The result is agglomerations of hardening concrete, that might be ... -
Hydration Chemistry of Cement Studied by Near Infrared Spectroscopy
Christy, Alfred Antony; Thorstensen, Rein Terje; Prathumsuwan, Thitarat (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Inconsistencies in the pozzolanic strength activity index (SAI) for silica fume according to EN and ASTM
Thorstensen, Rein Terje; Fidjestøl, Per (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)New supplementary cementitious materials claimed to possess pozzolan properties emerge frequently. This development is driven both by economic and environmental pressures. Properties of new materials are compared with those ... -
The influence of steel fibres on compressive and tensile strength of ultra high performance concrete : A review
Lande, Ingrid; Thorstensen, Rein Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020) -
Locally Produced UHPC : The Influence of Type and Content of Steel Fibres
Lande, Ingrid; Thorstensen, Rein Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Ultra-high performance concrete might be a competitive alternative to normal concrete for some purposes. But despite research efforts during decades, utilisation is still not widespread. Reasons include limited competence ... -
Preventing early age chloride migration into low-carbon concrete
Thorstensen, Rein Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The use of substituting cementitious materials (SCMs) to produce low-carbon concrete is escalating. This contributes to reducing the anthropogenic emission of CO2, and to reduce harmful temperature gradients during cement ... -

Towards Efficient Use of Cement in Ultra High Performance Concrete
Lande, Ingrid; Thorstensen, Rein Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This paper presents an investigation on substituting the cement content with an inert material, in a typical locally produced UHPC mix. A structured literature review was performed to enrichen the discussion and to benchmark ... -
Use of Concrete for Road Infrastructure : A SWOT Analysis Related to the three Catchwords Sustainability, Industrialisation and Digitalisation.
Lande, Ingrid; Terjesen, Otto; Thorstensen, Rein Terje; Kanstad, Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper aims at identifying the direction for more sustainable development of the use of concrete in road infrastructure in an industrialised context. The increase in the global mean temperature is one of the most severe ...
