Concrete cracking is aesthetically unpleasing and can lead to structural defects. A new modelling tool is designed to address this.
Concrete durability issues such as delayed ettringite formation make things difficult for engineers working in construction.
Dr Ali Nezhad, Head of Head of Sustainability and Innovation at Boral, illustrated to create the importance of minimising cracking to maximise long-term performance.
He also shared the rationale for EVOLVE, a modelling tool developed by Boral to predict the temperature differential of concrete more effectively.
