Facilities
- Weathering chambers to carry out accelerated testing for a wide range of materials (metals, cement-based, polymers, timber) and sizes to study their long-term performance and changing climate effects (e.g. temp rise, higher UV intensity, increased CO2, higher intensity dry-wet cycles etc)
- Carbonation chambers to carry out CCUS studies and the effect of carbonation on materials
- Corrosion workstation to study the durability of metals
- Concrete durability test equipment for the full suite of durability performance (e.g. chloride penetration test, sulphate resistance test, alkali-silica reaction test, etc)
- Mechanical testing equipment with a capacity of up to 2000 tons (largest capacity in Singapore) and with simultaneous mechanical and thermal loading capability (high-temperature in fire scenarios and freezing temperature for arctic applications)
- Material characterization equipment
- Advanced imaging technologies
