Object

The deterioration model of the concrete structure is constructed, and the durability is predicted. Moreover, the durability of the concrete structure that will be constructed in the future is predicted, and an appropriate design and the repair time are clarified.


Strategy

It approaches from the material level that composes concrete. The deterioration prediction model from the microstructure model with the cement based materials is constructed, and it proposes the best material and the design for construction. Especially, the permeability of the cement based materials that greatly influences deterioration is examined, and the mechanism is clarified from microstructure.
