Currently, civil engineers find out the potential of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites as strengthening material for concrete structures damages in the marine environment for extending the service life of marine structures.
Also, these processes are certainly most simulative of harsh environmental conditions to which civil infrastructure is exposed.
Summary This paper has provided a review of research on RC structures exposed to harsh environmental condition and also application of externally bonded CFRPCs in civil construction in strengthening.

Finite Element Analysis on Frame Structure of Light Steel Temporary Buildings Zheng Zhang1, a, Xuefeng Cai1, b, Yongchao Ma1, c and Jizhong Zhou1, d 1Department of Civil Engineering, Fujian University of Technology, No.3 Xue Fu Road, University Town, Shangjie Minhou, Fuzhou, Fujian, P.R.
Just because of above characteristics, the temporary buildings are widely used in both civil and military fields.
Thus the temporary buildings not only used in civil fields but also in military fields.
With the development of Chinese economic level, there are more and more engineering constructions in everywhere, which increases the need for light steel temporary buildings.

The advantages of electric engineering machinery are also summarized.
Introduction As an important part of the engineering equipment industry, engineering machinery played a crucial role in the development and engineering of the country.
Engineering machineries are mainly used for industrial construction and production, agriculture, forestry, water conservancy engineering, industrial and civil buildings, urban construction, environmental protection and so on.
This volume and quality is a great constrain in engineering machines.
At last, we summarized the advantages of electric engineering machinery.

Experimental Study on Reliability of Wireless Sensors for Monitoring Corrosion of Reinforcing Bars Zhen Chen1, a, Jin Wu1,b and Zhe Wang1,c 1Department of Civil Engineering, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Nanjing, China a997502647@qq.com, bwujin@nuaa.edu.cn, cwangzyy@nuaa.edu.cn Keywords: corrosion of reinforcing bars; wireless sensors; temperature; impact; salt solution erosion; reliability Abstract.
However, the initiation corrosion process is quite complicated and concealed, and it is difficult for engineers to detect the presence of corrosion until significant structural damage has already occurred.
