Description of the initiative

The use of new reinforced cementitious composites with non-metallic fiber fabrics of various kinds called FRCM (Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrix) and TRC (Textile Reinforced Concrete) is becoming a very effective practice to reinforce existing concrete structures and weakly reinforced masonry. Rilem has published several state of art intended to clarify the characteristics of these materials and the ideal test conditions. After extensive testing following the recent earthquake Aquila and Emilia, the National Superior Council of Public Works has approved a provision which will allow the practitioners for a Technical Qualification Certification that will make them to make use freely in the market respecting essential qualification criteria. The same material is also suitable to make a qualitative leap in prefabrication to propose structural and non-structural elements characterized by high performance and light weight with problems typical of aerospace structures and little notes in the civil framework. The course makes use of Italian and foreign experts of international renown is an opportunity to learn about the characteristics of these materials, the limits of current knowledge and horizons of the so far unexplored applications, establishing relationships with some players in the innovation process that is among the most vibrant in the research on new construction materials. The course has to be followed as a whole. At the end of the course a design example will be proposed to judge the overpassing of the activity.
