The offer for the industry

The Chair’s cooperation offer for the industry:

The offer of cooperation between the Chair of Building Materials Engineering (L-2) and the industry includes research and engineering works, scientific and technical opinions and expertise in the field of:

  • laboratory tests and evaluation of conventional (standard) and unconventional properties of materials and construction products; this applies, inter alia, to small-sized concrete, ceramic, bituminous products as well as mineral binders;
  • diagnostic tests (laboratory and in-situ) of materials in existing facilities, including destructive, partially destructive and non-destructive tests (UPV, Pull-off, Schmidt's hammer, Impact-echo);
  • assessment of environmental aggressiveness and the causes and degree of material destruction in
    existing facilities, including post-fire assessment of concrete and fire tests of concrete elements.

The Chair specializes in R&D works, especially in the field of specialized research on:

  • assessment of the concrete’s transport capacity for liquids, gases and chloride ions using laboratory methods (water permeability according to PN-EN 12390-8, nitrogen permeability by Cembureau method, chloride ion permeability by NT BUILD 443 method) and in situ (water permeability by GWT - Germann Water permeation Test, air permeability by the Torrent method);
  • determination of porosity and pore distribution in mineral materials using MIP and BET methods;
  • assessment of freeze-thaw resistance by the direct method according to PN-B-06250:1988 and freeze-thaw resistance under the influence of de-icing salts according to PKN-CEN / TS 12390-9: 2007;
  • determination of air void characteristics in hardened concrete. PN-EN 480-11:2000;
  • the behavior of concrete under fire conditions, including determination of concrete susceptibility to fire spalling, also under load conditions;
  • assessment of the resistance of organic coatings and paints under accelerated ageing conditions;
  • evaluation of mineral materials resistance to biological corrosion.

The team's experience in the implementation of R&D works allows for extensive cooperation in the development of new building materials as well as technological and material solutions for construction, including material solutions used in geotechnics. The team also specializes in designing the composition of the ordinary and lightweight aggregate high-strength concretes, self-compacting and special purpose concretes, including ultra-high-strength cement composites. The Chair develops the technology of binders with a reduced carbon footprint (geopolymers and mineral binders with a low proportion of Portland clinker).

Innovative ideas and solutions in the field of construction materials engineering developed by Chair’s employees are the subject of patent applications and obtained patents, of which six have been created in the last 5 years. Three solutions in the field of fiber reinforced soil-cement walls technology are currently implemented by the industry.

For many years, the Chair has been conducting dynamic cooperation with the industrial environment. This cooperation mainly concerns the implementation of R&D projects and technical assessment of construction materials and products.

Educational activity

Teaching is carried out at both the Faculty of Civil Engineering and the Faculty of Environmental Engineering. The teams teach obligatory subjects and optional subjects, forming part of full-time M. Sc. studies, vocational studies and M. Sc. complementary studies.

The scientific and research work

Characteristics of the main directions of scientific and research work:

Scientific and research work carried out by the Chair as part of its research, statutory activity, grants and research work for the industry covers a wide spectrum of issues related to the broadly understood civil engineering industry. First of all, these are issues in the field of structural materials and products, especially in the field of concrete and other cement materials. Besides, the team's competencies also include technological issues, designing properties and durability of materials and its conditions. The subject of technology, properties and broadly understood durability of mineral materials are particularly developed, including mainly such materials as concrete and cement mortars, geopolymer concretes and mortars, soil- cement, structural ceramics.

The research topics undertaken by the Chair's employees in recent years include extensive research on the possibility of utilization of sewage sludge, which, after thermal processing, is a valuable addition to cement concretes.

In the field of cement composites, tests are carried out on: ordinary concretes and new generation concretes (high-performance and ultra-high-performance, self-compacting, lightweight aggregate concrete, fibre-reinforced concrete, self-healing concretes). These tests concern both technological aspects (composition design, evaluation of technical properties, etc.) and durability in various operating conditions - from cyclic freezing and thawing to high-temperature impact studies. Also, the team is investigating the effects of corrosion of mineral materials caused by biological agents.

The team conducts numerous research works on geopolymer composites. The problems related to the influence of their composition (selection and evaluation of the impact of the use of various aggregates, precursors and alkaline activators) on the properties of the mixture as well as the usable properties and durability of the hardened material are analyzed. Work is ongoing to use the special resistance of these binders to high temperature and to determine their resistance to chloride.

When characterizing the research activity of the Chair's team, it should be emphasized that in all research conducted at the Chair, great emphasis is placed on the aspects of sustainable civil engineering.

The Chair's scientific and research activity is financed both from internal funds and, to an increasing extent, from external funds as a result of European and national competitions (ERA-NET, NCN, NAWA, NCBiR, etc.). Scientific and research work is carried out in international cooperation with scientific research centres and universities. Scientific and research activities constitute a strong basis for extensive didactic activity, primarily in the field of subjects important in the education of a civil engineer, related to the broadly understood structural materials science.

In the last decade, there has been significant development of the research and development staff of the Chair. Four of the employees have obtained the degree of habilitated doctor, and there are currently 10 doctorates, including one cotutelle in cooperation with the University of Nantes.

Thanks to the funding of the project Academic International Partnerships NAWA EMMAT which is coordinated by the Chair, the cooperation of its employees with research centres and universities with a similar profile of scientific activity regarding modern construction materials that meet the requirements of sustainable development is developed. Currently, the Chair conducts joint research and employee exchange with the following research centres, including Nantes University, GeM Laboratory, Saint Nazaire, France; University of Beira Interior, Portugal; Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic; Center Scientifique et Technique du Batiment, France; Universidad Católica del Uruguay, Uruguay; Dept. of Civil Engineering, National University, Taiwan; Pau et Pays d'Aldour University, France; School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, UNSW, Australia.
