Test the behavior of structures in a wave flume on a physical model
France · FR
Who can apply Commune · Etablissement public dont services de l'Etat
Your need Rising sea levels will exacerbate coastal protection problems . Coastal structures will be subjected to more severe swell conditions. More stressed, these structures will experience greater damage and will see the level of protection they offer decrease, in particular their ability to limit wave overtopping. Consequently, depending on the safety stakes for property and people, local authorities may be led to study reinforcements or adaptations of their protection structures . Similarly, in the context of calls for coastal engineering works, companies might want to test variants of structures in the hope of benefiting from an economic advantage compared to the basic solution. Finally, these companies may need to use physical modeling tools as part of their own R&D. Cerema's response Pre-dimensioning studies of coastal structures are based on very unreliable analytical formulas. As soon as the structure is important, due to its size or because of the stakes it represents in terms of public safety, the realization of physical tests to simulate the action of swells and the…
Develop the use of alternative materials in road construction
France · FR
Who can apply Commune · Collectivité d’outre-mer à statut particulier · Etablissement public dont services de l'Etat
Your need The use of alternative materials as a substitute for natural materials represents a major challenge for construction stakeholders. Road construction, in particular, due to the quantities of material involved, is a prime sector for valorizing alternative materials. > Road construction project owners The Energy Transition for Green Growth Law (LTECV) commits the State and local authorities, as project owners for road construction and maintenance, to a reasoned consumption of granular natural resources by promoting reuse and recycling or all other forms of material recovery, within the meaning of European Parliament Directive 2008/98/EC on waste. The LTECV thus sets ambitious objectives for the State and local authorities for their road construction and maintenance projects: the priority for the use of materials from reuse, re-use or recycling of waste in contracts, high rates of reuse, re-use or recycling of waste: at least 50% by mass in 2017 and 60% in 2020. The needs of project owners therefore mainly concern technical assistance for...
