New modelling reveals that low-carbon concrete developed at RMIT University can recycle double the amount of coal ash compared to current standards, halve the amount of cement required and perform exceptionally well over time.
Engineers from RMIT University have teamed up with Visy, Australia's largest recycling company, to develop bricks containing at least 15% waste glass and 20% combusted solid waste (ash) instead of clay.
The National Asset Centre of Excellence (NACOE) have released a recent webinar summarising the results of their trials into recycled concrete, recycled asphalt, and coal combustion products (CCPs).
Research conducted by Rice University researchers revealed that graphene obtained from metallurgical coke, a coal-derived product, has the potential to function not just as a strengthening additive in cement but also as a substitute for sand in concrete.
There have been a number of Transport for NSW test methods updated via their Activity Report.
A new "Tech Brief" published by the National Concrete Pavement Technology Center at the University of Iowa supports the use of harvested fly ash in highway infrastructure.
The Technical Committee for Concrete 2021 is now welcoming abstract submissions
Join us at the Venture Cafe to hear four of our industry members present the challenges they would like SmartCrete CRC to address, and what makes for a winning project proposal.
The event will include opportunities for networking with the presenters and road-testing your research ideas.
Experts and engineers from Boral, Southern Highland Concrete Construction and UTS are taking part in a new two-year manufacturing research project. The project aims to overcome the current technological barriers of low-carbon concrete manufacturing and accelerate the development of Boral’s lower carbon ENVISIA® concrete
