Life Cycle Assessment on the use of Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concretes with enhanced durability for structures in extremely aggressive environments: case study analyses
Abstract
Last decades have been characterized by growing attention on sustainable development. The European Commission interest in this topic is evident considering the global agreements and the related massive investments that have been, and still are, carried out to guarantee a sustainable approach to global growth. A contribution to pursue this challenging goal is provided by the EUfunded ReSHEALience Project (GA n° 760824). ReSHEALience Project aims at developing Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concretes with enhanced durability (Ultra High Durability Concrete – UHDC) that will be characterized by at least 30% longer service life as compared to traditional concretes. The increase of durability will be analyzed also from a sustainability point of view taking into account all the environmental, economic and social impacts, associated to the longer life-cycle of the structures. ; Funded by the European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under GA No 760824. ; Peer reviewed
