Applied Science University Laboratories Reveal Engineering Innovation to Reduce Corrosion and Lower Maintenance Costs in Bahrain Infrastructure
A researcher from the University of Applied Sciences in Bahrain developed engineering solutions to the problem of reinforcing steel corrosion in concrete structures, especially in coastal environments. This was achieved through the use of self-compacting concrete reinforced with fibers and basalt fiber-reinforced polymer bars. Studies have shown that this technique improves load-bearing capacity and reduces cracking, thereby increasing the lifespan of structures and lowering maintenance costs. It also contributes to enhancing the sustainability of infrastructure projects in Bahrain and the region.
