COST Action TU1207

Action TU1207 leverages the already large amount of work carried out on the use of composite reinforcement for structural applications by individual research teams and existing learned groups. Action TU1207 was established in 2013 and operated until 2017. During these four years the Action aimed: to coordinate European research in...
Anagennisi

Anagennisi: Innovative Use of all Tyre Components in Concrete An estimated one billion tyres are discarded each year. Post-Consumer tyre arisings for EU countries (2010) are 3.4M tonnes per year. At the moment nearly 50% of all recycled tyres/components still end up as fuel, in low grade applications or in...
Seismic-Resistant Highly Deformable Structures SHDS

Seismic-Resistant Highly Deformable Structures (SHDS) is a research project funded by H2020 trough the Marie Slodovska Curie Programme. The recent earthquakes that have struck Europe the last decade, L'Aquila (2009) and Lorca (2011) (see picture on the left) have shown that even for a moderate seismic hazard level the seismic...
