The research topics of the expert centre include:

  • Seawater affected concrete structure’s long-term durability
  • Models for chloride binding
  • The influence of casting defects as well as unavoidable structural weaknesses on long-term durability
  • Influence of rheology and casting method on durability of structures cast with SCC
  • The influence of micro defects on durability
  • Chloride threshold values for initiation of corrosion and corrosion rates in the propagation phase. Influence of binder system and environmental conditions.
  • Models for cracks, including understanding damage formation in and through the interface between reinforcement and concrete.
  • Numerical service life models based on chloride driven reinforcement corrosion and later expanded to other degradation mechanisms.
