Abstract
Workshop: Long Lasting Reinforced Concrete for Infrastructure under Severe Operating Conditions
The life of engineering structures depends on their use, the service environment, the constitutive materials, and the ways they are built.
New and existing technologies require materials to perform in increasingly extreme operating conditions. In this context, the development of high-performance and long lasting reinforced concrete structures if of utmost importance.
In this workshop different topics associated with degradation of reinforced concrete will be presented, from the development of new admixtures and characterization of the resulting materials to the modeling of corrosion processes in reinforced concrete.
