The comprehensive research program of the GREEN CONCRETE project is performed at 4 testing locations, which are briefly described below:
Testing location Erfurt / Germany |
|
climate data (10 years average)
36 test sites on the property of the Fachhochschule Erfurt Investigations At 12 test giant lysimeters have been installed. The amount of seepage water is quantified exactly.
