RESHEALIENCE - Rethinking coastal defence and Green-Energy Service infrastructures through enHancEddurAbiLIty high-performance fiber reinforced cement-based materials

H2020-NMBP-2016-2017, RIA - G.A. n. 760824

 

 

The main goal of the project RESHEALIENCE - Rethinking coastal defence and Green-Energy Service infrastructures through enHancEddurAbiLIty high-performance fiber reinforced cement-based materials is to develop an Ultra High Durability Concrete (UHDC) and a Durability Assessment-based Design (DAD) methodology for structures, to improve durability and predict their long-term performance under Extremely Aggressive Exposures (EAE: XS-chloride induced corrosion, XA-chemical attack).

The improvement will be supported upgrading Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete with new functionalities. Focus will be on marine structures and infrastructures for geothermal/biomass energy plants, whose severe conditions challenge the performance, lead to quick deterioration and shorten the lifespan, resulting in billions Euro spent each year in repairs.

This goal will be achieved through the following activities (variations compared to current reinforced concrete):

The competence garnered by all the partners will put them in the forefront of the civil engineering field in order to provide sustainable solutions for the most challenging needs of our society.

 

Project Start: January 2017

Duration: 4 years

Total budget: 5,557,595.50 €
