“…It is well known that construction industry is responsible for solid waste production, large consumption of non-renewable resources for several materials production and release of green house effect gases to the atmosphere [1,2], being responsible for the generation of approximately 30% of CO 2 world emissions [2]. Thus, a necessity of minimizing environmental and health problems arose which stimulated different research studies to develop new materials from alternative raw material sources, remarking vegetable fibers as reinforcement materials in cementitious matrices [3,4].…”

h i g h l i g h t sHornification treatment does not deteriorate the fiber quality. Hornificated pulps show good behavior as reinforcement for composites at early ages. Hornification process presents potential to be used as a treatment for cellulosic pulps. a b s t r a c tThis study evaluated the effect of the hornification process on cellulosic fibers of bleached pine and unbleached eucalyptus with in order to improve its durability and volume stability to be used as reinforcement in cementitious matrices. The study indicated that the treatment did not deteriorate the properties of viscosity and index of crystallinity and decreased the capacity of water retention. Composites reinforced with hornificated and untreated pulps with thermal curing or accelerated aging were produced and evaluated to assess their physical and mechanical behavior. The use of hornificated fibers as reinforcement generated improvements in the modulus of rupture and specific energy of the composites.

“…This theory suggests that interactions between actors such as stakeholders enable the transfer or exchange of value, for example, information. Stakeholder relationship structure researchers seek to understand the nature of inter‐ and intragroup relationships between and among stakeholders () as these relationships may provide an explanation for the nature of influence that such groups can exert. This perspective adopts methods and metrics adopted from graph theory, which include the degree of dependence, the position within the network of a particular stakeholder, or the pattern of information flow between stakeholders (Frooman & Murrell, ).…”

The purpose of this paper is to examine the network structure of online stakeholder discussions in the planning stage of a UK public mega project, High Speed Rail. By providing new rail connections between London, Birmingham and Manchester, this project is highly complex as it is embedded in a network of stakeholder relationships that may support or oppose the project.Data drawn from Twitter was analyzed using Social Network Analysis and inductive analysis of user profiles and content. Findings indicate that the majority of online stakeholders oppose the project and form stable clusters. Larger clusters within this network may attempt to deploy power directly in the form of a manipulation strategy while smaller clusters may seek to ally themselves with more powerful groups, a pathway strategy. Overall, the methodology is a useful complement to existing methods and may provide real time insights into the complex, evolving discussions around mega projects.
