This project focuses on developing low-carbon concrete structures using geogrids instead of steel rebars to reduce CO2 emissions and enhance durability. The innovative methodology aims to improve construction sustainability and efficiency while minimizing environmental impact.
Currently, two main challenges in Civil Engineering are CO2 emissions and energy shortage, as buildings' construction, demolition, and reconstruction consume 10% of the world's total energy, resulting in high CO2 emissions.
Reducing the use of steel rebars can significantly improve the sustainability of construction, as the production of steel rebars is highly energy-intensive, polluting, and costly; and mild steel rebars are heavily susceptible to corrosion limiting concrete structures' lifespa…
