SERVICE LIFE DESIGN – A TOOL FOR SUSTAINABLE APPLICATION OF CONCRETE
Abstract eng: Sustainable structural engineering is based on the basic principle that the energy and resources consumption due to the construction and operation of a structure must be minimized. Relating to concrete structures this principle could be realized by the use of the material in the most efficient way considering its strength and durability within the service life of the structure. On this background this paper deals with the subjects of the performance concept for durability design, the potential of this approach in view of sustainable design and some basic considerations related to green concrete and ultra high strength concrete, respectively. Selected examples illustrate the topics of the paper.
