SmartCreate CRC Postgraduate Scholarships

Development and Engineering Assessment of Specialty Concrete with Repurposed Wastes

These scholarships will support the research into improving the sustainability and durability of materials of constructions for civil infrastructure. This will involve the development and assessment of ‘new’ specialty concrete with repurposed wastes and in-service field testing to verify the performance of pre-commercial prototypes of high performing specialty and waste repurposed concrete as civil infrastructure assets (e.g., pipes, road & pavements, mine back fill)

Decision Tools in Managing Water Assets

These scholarships will support the research into the development of asset management decision tools to support medium and large water utilities in operating, upgrading, and rehabilitating physical water assets that balances risk, cost, and benefits.

Sensing Water Asset Conditions

These scholarships will support the research into the development of monitoring  and managing concrete assets/structures (e.g., pipes, roads & pavements, mine backfill). The aim is to create protocols and safe and reliable methods to non-destructively inspect/monitor and provide qualitative & quantitative assessments of asset health.
