To whom it may concern:
In the online “preliminary registration form”, not all countires are shown in the list. The system should allow authors to add their own.

Abstract
Use of HSC has developed since many years ago in developed and developing countries also. Although HSC has a few lacks, but it has many benefits. The concrete that has CS amounts in limit 50 to100 Mpa is called HSC. One of the most important properties of HSC is CS that is used the 28-day CS in structural designs as a criteria. Sometimes due to limitation time of project performance, construction problems and rapid decision for high performance, estimation of 28-day CS based on 7-day CS can be very useful. Based on tests and analysis of results, three sets equations are determined with ANN and Regression methods then finally are compared results and introduce the best method.

ABSTRACT
The strengthening of reinforced concrete structures by means of externally bonded fiber reinforced polymers FRPs is becoming an attractive technique for upgrading existing structures. Although previous laboratory investigations have shown that the shear capacities of beams can be increased considerably with this strengthening technique, premature failure by debonding of the FRP reinforcement can often limit its effectiveness. The primary purpose of this paper is to propose a new methodology of determination failure criteria of the interface element between CFRP side face and concrete under shear loading. The test setup and supports are designed such that there are tangential and normal stresses at the CFRP-to-concrete interface. This paper describes the experimental setup and test parameters. Mathematical formulas represented the failure criteria of interface element were obtained.

CFRP, R.C beams, shear strengthening, interfacial, failure criteria

Dear sir,
I wanted to know about my abstract status after it’s acceptance. Title of my paper is “Selective withdrawal from two-layer fluid of a still-form bottom topography”. I just wanted to know if it is accepted for oral presentation or poster?
Regards,
Rozita Kian
