Architectural material research needs to understand the mechanical tung and accessibility of various materials through a multidimensional research approach that extends local analysis and scientific interpretation from atoms to macroscopic studies. Multi-Scale Construction Materials Laboratory (MCM-Lab) conducts research on the microstructure and deformation behavior of cement hydration in concrete, fire resistance, chemical properties, durability and performance of various building materials including concrete.
