Dear all
May I ask you if you can recommend specific area of innovation for the Concrete Masonry Units?
In particular what I discovered so far is:
-investigating the embodied carbon of the CMU and propose alternative ways of reducing the GWP during the lifecycle.
-investigating the use of alternative aggregates
-investigating the use of supplementary cementitious materials via laboratory tests
-studying the coupled thermal and moisture transfer via simulation and laboratory tests
-testing different shapes and their impact on thermal and moisture transfer performance
-studying the interlocking features for dry stack masonry (without mortar joints)
and what else, like nespresso spot :) ?
Thanks in advance
