Construction Materials

Associate Professor Tomoyuki Koyama

Laboratory of Building Materials: The building is made of materials, the beauty of the building is realized by the mastery of this building material, and people can be safely and comfortably protected in it. In order to continue this activity in harmony with the natural environment, it is indispensable to effectively utilize by-products generated in other industries, for example, concrete has sufficient capacity for the purpose. In addition, buildings undergo various deteriorating conditions in the natural environment, but long life of buildings is also important for achieving a sustainable society, we research durability of materials under various environments through decades of exposure experiments. Meanwhile, global warming is progressing steadily, and how to manage quality at the harsh construction site for both materials and workers is a future important issue, and we are also conducting research at the construction site level.

Main Research Topic

  1. Production system to realize recycling society.
  2. Durability design of building against various degraded environments.
  3. Quality control on construction under global warming.
  4. Research and preservation of historical concrete structures
