LafargeHolcim, a global leader in building solutions has partnered up with the Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad (IITH) to collaborate on the development of innovative and smart building solutions.
This new academic collaboration with one of the reputed institutes in the India will be imple-mented through a research project funded by LafargeHolcim Innovation Centre (LHIC), focus-ing on ‘Standardisation of Smart sensing technology for Continuous Assessment of Internal State and Compressive Strength of Concrete’.
This study will explore smart sensing technology for continuous on-site strength evaluation of a concrete structure that can eventually reduce the time cycle for construction of buildings and infrastructure and also ensure highly accurate real-time strength development.
