Features

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.

Targeted Application(s)/Industry

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