Project detail

Novel bendable thermoplastic rebars for improved durability and sustainability of concrete structures

Duration: 1.5.2023 — 30.4.2026

Funding resources

On the project

Proposed project tends to intervene in the design and construction of new concrete structures. These new structures should have high durability high mechanical performance , with the aim of reaching a lifetime equal to or longer than the currently recommended by existing codes, in particular for aggressive environments.

Keywords
fibre-reinforced polymers, bendable, thermoplastic, concrete structures, durability, sustainability, recyclable materials
