Textile Reinforced Concrete design: material and structural behaviour
1st-6th July 2016
New advanced cement based materials have attracted the major interest
of the researchers and structural designers who are investigating on light
design solutions, sustainability and advanced retrofitting techniques.
The interest comes from the experience of durability of thin layers of fibre
reinforced materials which mix cement-based and geopolymer matrix,
random fibres and fibres organized in fabrics made with different
materials.
The research on these topics is in progress and the strong effort devoted
to these materials by a growing international community is changing
quickly the reference parameters.
After a survey at the state of the art of this subject the course would give
to all the attendants the main bases to operate in the field applied to
structural design of new structures and retrofitting of existing
constructions, both in the framework of building technology and civil
infrastructures. The course would also represent an opportunity for all the
Ph.D. students who are researching in this field to fully understand the
possibilities offered by the developing of these new materials. In order to
favour this action and a successful transfer of knowledge, a mix of several
national and international schools involved in these topics are jointed
together.
