Concrete, which supports human society, is the research target for developing various functions. For example, research targets include fiber-reinforced cementitious composite (FRCC) to improve mechanical properties, self-healing concrete to improve durability, and a concrete 3D printing system to enable free modeling. The functional concrete materials will be a means to meet the needs for concrete materials in recent years.

By imparting innovative functions to concrete, a common and ubiquitous material that literally supports human society, we aim to add significant value. This includes extending the service life of structures, enabling labor-saving construction, and achieving new designs and expressions that were previously unattainable.

• Self-healing concrete aims to prolong the service life of concrete structures by controlling cracks.
  
• Fiber-reinforced concrete enhances the toughness and safety of concrete materials, which are typically brittle and weak under tensile forces.
  
• Concrete 3D printing seeks to unmanned construction sites, which have long been criticized for their low productivity, while also exploring new possibilities in design.

Construction companies, maintenance management, building materials manufacturers, etc.
New construction and its maintenance management by new functional concrete materials will be Proposed.
