It leads to expansive corrosion products, cracking, staining, spalling from the surface and ultimately structural weakness and health and safety concerns. C-Probe (working with Sheffield Hallam University) has developed a low carbon geopolymer cement binder for use
as a concrete repair mortar and new build concrete. The project will explore the potential of using the geopolymer as a pre-cast material for construction integrated with structural health care technology thereby futureproofing construction.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
