Lehrinhalte
Durability is an essential design and evaluation parameter for concrete. First, comprehensive knowledge of damage mechanisms in concrete is taught. On this basis you will learn practical methods to increase the durability of concrete.
The main topics are:
1. Fundamentals of concrete durability (microstructure, capillary transport mechanisms, cracking and crack propagation).
2. Attacks on concrete and reinforcement (based on the exposure classes according to DIN EN 206 and DIN 1045-2).
3. Increasing the durability of concrete (both through recipe adjustments and on the finished component).
Voraussetzungen
Construction Materials (or comparable basic module on concrete)
Official Course Description
On successful completition of this module, students should be able to:
1. Understand and evaluate chemical and physical interactions between concretes and their environmental conditions.
2. Develop concretes with a specified service life in an engineering manner and with scientific expertise.
3. Propose measures for the subsequent increase of the durability of concrete.
