For this reason, the articles highlighted in this editorial relate to different aspects of testing of different materials and elements in civil engineering, from building materials to building structures. The current trend in the development of testing of materials and elements in civil engineering is mainly concerned with the detection of flaws and defects in concrete elements and structures, and acoustic methods predominate in this field. As in medicine, the trend is towards designing test equipment that allows one to obtain a picture of the inside of the tested element and materials. Interesting results with significance for building practices were obtained.Technologyrock boltgrouting qualitydynamic responsenatural frequencyfinite element methodmonitoringhistorical masonry wallhygrothermal processesinternal insulationtesting of building materialstest uncertaintyvalidation of test methodssustainable test methodsrecyclingfoamed asphalt mixtures with cement (FAC)base layerreclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP)fatigue durabilityGFRPFRP reinforcementshearcapacityreinforced concrete beamscolumnstiffnessFRCMPBO meshPBO–FRCMcarpentry jointsscarf and splice jointsstop-splayed scarf joints (‘bolt of lightning’)static behaviourexperimental researchconcretenon-destructive testingultrasoundsultrasonic tomographyacoustic methodsdefectsdiagnosticdetectionconvolutional neural networkstransfer learningmonitoring FBGpower transmission towercivil engineeringX-ray microtomographymicrostructure characteristicsinfiltration damagehigh-strength concretesteel fibresflexural tensile strengthfracture energynumerical analysisconcrete floorscompressive strengthstrength distributionindustrial floorsultrasound testsventilated facadeslarge-scale facade modelfire safetyfiber cement boardlarge-slab ceramic tileplasterboardsmoisture contenthydration processesmechanical propertiesultrasound measurementsESD resinexpansion jointquasi-plastic materialenergy absorptionasphalt mixcompaction indexvolumetric parametersstiffness modulusmoisture resistanceroughnesstextureclose-range photogrammetrybond strengthrandom field generationsemivariogramshybrid truss bridgesteel–concrete connection jointmechanical behaviorfailure modestrainstatic teststatic elastic modulusdynamic elastic modulusmachine learningP-waveS-waveresonance frequency testnondestructive methodAl–Ti laminatefractureacoustic emission diagnosticpattern recognitionclustering AE signalstorage systemstab connectorflexural testcapable design momentrestrained ring testautogenous shrinkage crackingconcrete cracking testconcrete shrinkage cracking testrestrined ring calibrationcement–fiber boardsacoustic emission methodk-means algorithmwavelet analysisfiber compositesground penetrating radar (GPR)HMA dielectric constantroad pavement thickness estimationearly age concretedamage processes detection before loadingstrength of structuresaggregateclassificationwire meshroundnesstilting angleopening sizeconcrete centrifugationmorphologyimage processingporositycementwaste paper sludge ash (WPSA)controlled low-strength material (CLSM)unconfined compressive strengthbearing capacitybackfill materialP-wave velocityamplitude attenuationresistivityCT scansandstonedamage variablenuclear magnetic resonancespin-lattice relaxometryprotonhydration kineticssuperplasticizerready-mixed concreteconstruction materialquality assessmentconformity criteriastatistical-fuzzy methodFRTPrivetconnectionpolyethylene pipemechanical properties of polyethyleneresistance straincomputer simulationresidual shear stressparticle crushingring shear testparticle flow code (PFC2D)frictional workfibre-reinforced concreterecycled steel fibresmicro-computed tomographyscanning electron microscopytensile strengthreinforced concretediagnostic testingcorrosioncarbonationgalvanostatic pulse methodphase composition analysisX-ray analysisthermal analysisquasi-brittle cement compositeslow-module polypropylene fibreselastic rangedigital image correlationArcan shear testwoodorthotropic shear moduluselastic-plastic materialshear wave velocitysandbender elements testgrain-size characteristicscomplex modulusshrinkage analysisreclaimed asphaltmineral–cement emulsion mixturescement dusty by-products (UCPPs)degradation of glass panelseffective area ratiorelative mass lossvisible light transmittancewindblown sandwood-plastic compositesmethods of testing resistance to fungimethods of assessmentground-penetrating radar (GPR)non-destructive techniques (NDT)corrosion of reinforcementslip resistancegranite floorslip resistance valueramp testacceptance anglesliding friction coefficientcomparability of test methodswall temperaturefibre bragg grating sensorsfreeze-thaw cyclessignal analysisshort-time Fourier transformfast Fourier transformbrinesodium chlorideX-raypartition wallsbrick wallsbending strengthcrackingpost-tensioncablegirderdestructive testnon-destructive teststructural health monitoringsafetymonitoring fibre Bragg gratingmining areasstrain/stress distributiongeopolymer concretefly-ashbottom-ashneural networksustainabilityindustrial waste managementflexural strengthcladdingAE acoustic emissionmicro-eventssound spectrumtraditional and quasi-brittle cement compositesresidual-state creepsaturation frontlandslideserosional stabilitylaboratory testinggrout mixturesgroundwatertest apparatustestingbuilding materialselementsTechnology.Schabowicz KrzysztofBOOK9910557365603321Testing of Materials and Elements in Civil Engineering3565922UNINA
