The SmartCrete Cooperative Research Centre has committed $3.2 million in funding to six industry-led research projects aligned to its mission of transitioning concrete for a sustainable Australia.
The six projects, co-funded by industry, research and SmartCrete CRC, will explore novel approaches to sustainable design, use and management of concrete. Representing a total investment of $14 million (cash and in-kind) in research and development, the projects aim to advance Australia’s concrete capabilities to deliver the material and technology change needed to abate the sector and achieve net zero by 2050.
SmartCrete CRC CEO Clare Tubolets said that the six projects, which have emerged through SmartCrete CRC’s latest funding round, will focus on developing innovative materials, technologies and building techniques that will improve the long-term performance and sustainability of Australia’s concrete infrastructure.
“As we strive towards net zero, adopting sustainable solutions that minimise the environmental impact of concrete while securing the sector’s long-term viability is crucial.
“We invest in homegrown concrete innovations that have the potential to transform how we design, use and manage concrete infrastructure,” Tubolets said.
The six projects leverage technologies such as 3D printing and computer vision systems, addressing the efficiency, productivity and cost challenges of concrete construction and maintenance. They represent key steps towards a more efficient and sustainable concrete ecosystem.
