CANADA-VANCOUVER-CONCRETE WALL

A researcher takes a closer look to the concrete wall coated with eco-friendly ductile cementitious composite (EDCC) at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, Canada. Oct. 10, 2017. A new seismic-resistant, fibre-reinforced concrete was developed at the UBC. Researchers coated the concrete wall with a 10 millimetre-thick layer of EDCC, which is sufficient to reinforce most interior walls against seismic shocks. (Xinhua/Liang Sen)
