The accelerating climate crisis results in a rising demand for ecologically driven concepts. Regarding construction, this does not only include environmentally friendly materials but also the establishment of greenery in urban regions.
This contribution presents the progress of two projects in which textured concrete slabs were designed to grow a stable biofilm of photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms. The greened panels represent an alternative to classic fa9ade greening with plants. Current literature suggests that the development of bioreceptive surface materials in the construction sector is difficult because there are no standardized methodological approaches for measuring said bioreceptivity. Therefore, the long-term. ahn is proposing a suitable measurement concept combining material Science and biology. Among other things, the intrinsic Substrate property pH value is expected to have a significant influence on biological colonization. In the current contribution the focus lies on the theoretical approach and design of experiment regarding this parameter.
Available experimental data will be presented.
Materials that support natural biodiversity on their surfaces can compensate for human activities that have a negative impact on nature and thus contribute to a carbon-neutral and nature-positive world. Specifically designing bioreceptive materials which favor the growth of biofilms on their surface is an approach complementing conventional, macroscopic green façades. But what exactly characterizes a bioreceptive substrate and how do biofilm and substrate interact? How and why does a spontaneous colonization and the formation of biofilms take place? What are biofilms and how can they be established in a laboratory setting? How can this existing knowledge be transferred to the artificial stone concrete so that this material can be tuned to increase (or decrease) its bioreceptivity?
This review paper aims at summarizing the existing state of knowledge on bioreceptive concrete and pointing out inconsistencies and contradictions which can only be removed by more interdisciplinary research in the field.
Die Klimakrise führt zu einer steigenden Nachfrage nach ökologisch orientierten Konzepten. Dazu gehören im Baubereich nicht nur umweltfreundliche Materialien, sondern auch die Begrünung städtischer Gebiete.
Vor diesem Hintergrund wird ein Projekt vorgestellt, dass eine Fassadenbegrünung mithilfe von mikrobiellen Organismen wie Algen statt höheren Pflanzen realisieren will. Die Entwicklung von sogenannten biorezeptiven Materialien ist eine Herausforderung, weil es aktuell noch keine standardisierten Methoden zur Bestimmung der Biorezeptivität gibt. Um ein grundlegendes Verständnis für die Prozesse und Interaktionen zwischen Organismen und Substrat zu gewinnen, werden Betonplatten unterschiedlich strukturiert und ihre Oberflächencharakteristiken dokumentiert. Anschließend werden die Platten unter verschiedensten Bedingungen bewittert und auf ihre Biorezeptivität untersucht.
Von besonderem Interesse sind hierbei Einfluss der materialintrinsischen Oberflächenparameter sowie der Umwelt. Langfristig wird geplant ein geeignetes Messkonzept vorzuschlagen, das Materialwissenschaft und Biologie verbindet und verlässliche Vorhersagen zur Biorezeptivität eines Materials treffen kann.
In der vorliegenden Arbeit liegt der Schwerpunkt auf dem theoretischen Ansatz und der Versuchsplanung.
In recent years, the demand for new and sustainable products has been constantly rising. Especially cementitious materials are known for their high carbon footprint and novel approaches will be needed to counterbalance that. The BAM departments 7.1 (building materials) and 4.0 (Material and the environment) try to improve the sustainability of concrete panels by establishing a biofilm on the weather protection layer. Using an ultra-high-performance-concrete allows the production of very thin facade tiles with a small carbon footprint. Furthermore, the durability of these tiles is expected to surpass the one of “normal” concrete facades and offer the possibility of modular renewing of defective tiles instead of a wall, or even remodeling a whole building. The controlled application of biofilms on facades aims to improve biodiversity, microclimate, and air quality in cities. Furthermore, the greening of typically gray surfaces could improve the mental health of the residents. The project focuses on testing a multiplicity of concrete samples, varying e.g., in roughness or pH. The bioreceptivity is analyzed via laboratory tests, as well as in perennial outdoor experiments.
Understanding the fundamentals of bioreceptivity enables the developement of functionalized materials. Concrete as the most used building material worldwide is of special interest as microbially greened panels may represent an alternative to classic façade greening with plants. This project includes extensive outdoor experiments, in which eight differently structured concrete panels are weathered under different conditions, aiming to grow a stable biofilm of photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms. Documentation and data analysis of this experiment will be demonstrated using an example of one of the surfaces.

As standards are not ye established, material characterization in context as well as bioreceptivity assessment itself has been proven to be difficult. The presentation reviews first results of methods adapted for this application.
For centuries, churches, secular buildings and museums have been furnished with valuable works of art. Many works of art are UV- and light-sensitive. It is well known that especially UV radiation causes damage and discoloration in paintings, textiles, plastics, wood and other materials. In particular, the wavelengths between 280 and 410 nm cause color changes, embrittlement or destruction of e.g. plastics over time. Therefore, strongly UV-absorbing glasses are advantageous for architecture and are necessary for the protection of cultural assets. As restorers in all disciplines become more and more aware, the demands placed on buildings and their furnishings in terms of climate are becoming increasingly detailed and precise. The aim in each case is to preserve the valuable artwork.
For some years now, the industry has been offering the protection of cultural objects by installing special UV-protective glasses. Currently, UV protection for church buildings is realized by laminated safety glass equipped with appropriate UV-protective plastic films. Technically, this always means a second pane of glass in front of the windows, which is installed outside the building. This creates climatic gaps that are difficult to control and deterioration due to ageing effects can be expected. At the same time, this protective glazing is not invisible and has a considerable aesthetic influence on the interior and exterior appearance of the building. Meanwhile, the preservation of historical monuments accepts such aesthetic cuts on buildings in order to protect the artwork in the interior from UV light. To this day, however, the long-term durability of UV protection provided by inserted plastic films is still controversial.
To date the only available alternative on the market is a mouth-blown UV protection glass which uses a so-called overlay to provide UV protection. This shows that UV protection can also be achieved by glasses without plastic films thus realizing an exclusive inorganic protection which normally is more stable than a polymeric one. So far there are not enough studies to prove long-term durability.
The aim of this project is to provide existing glazing or new glazing to be created with a highly transparent layer that ensures this UV-protective filter function below 400 nm. The glass coating is to be applied to the glass over a large area and fired into the surface like a classic ceramic enamel paint with the same technics. In addition, it should be long-term durable in its function. It means, that the glass has to be fused at temperatures below 630 °C during the firing process, its chemical durability has to be high, its coefficient of thermal expansion has to be as close as the one of the substrate (usually float glass) and the glass has to absorb the UV-radiation within a thin thickness (thinner as 100 µm).
In this project, the long-term durability of commercial UV-protective glasses is examined. New low melting glasses containing UV-absorbing ions are being developed. Their UV-absorption as a thin layer is analyzed as well as their chemical durability and their thermal properties.

Interlaboratory studies are common tools for collecting comparable data to implement standards for new materials or testing technologies. In the case of construction materials, these studies form the basis for recommendations and design codes. Depending on the study, the amount of data collected can be enormous, making manual handling and evaluation difficult. On the other hand, the importance of the FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable) principles for scientific data management, published by Wilkinson et al. in 2016, is constantly growing and changing the view on data usage.
The benefits of using data management tools such as data stores/repositories or electronic laboratory notebooks are many. Data is stored in a structured and accessible way (at least within a group) and data loss due to staff turnover is reduced. Tools usually support data publishing and analysis interfaces. In this way, data can be reused years later to generate new knowledge with future insights. On the other hand, there are many challenges in setting up a data repository, such as selecting suitable software tools, defining the data structure, enabling data access, and understanding by others and
ensuring maintenance, among others.
This talk discusses the advantages and challenges of setting up and applying a data repository using the interlaboratory study on the mechanical properties of printed concrete structures carried out in RILEM TC 304-ADC as example. First, the definition of a suitable data structure including all information is discussed. The tool-dependent upload process is then described. Here, the data
management system openBIS (open source software developed by ETH Zurich) is used. Since in most cases an open compute platform allowing access from different organisations is not possible or available due to data protection and maintenance issues, tool-independent export options are discussed and compared. Finally, the different query and analysis possibilities are demonstrated.
Biodiesel (FAME) from rapeseed is an environmentally friendly alternative to common fossil fuels. It is also suitable to serve as blending component to fuels like heating oil. If the fuel composition is changed, materials compatibility must be guaranteed. Adding polar biodiesel to nonpolar heating oil, changes the blend’s solvency and might cause swelling, extraction and solvation of polymers. The objective of this research was to investigate the compatibility of polymeric materials, which are commonly used for components in middle distillate facilities, along with blends of heating oil and 20 % biodiesel (B20). For this propose, ACM, HNBR, FKM, PE, PA 6, POM, PUR and PVC were exposed to heating oil and B20 for 42 and 84 days at 40 °C. In addition, the polymers HNBR, FKM, PA, POM and PVC were also exposed at 70 °C. Furthermore, the resistance of polymers in eight-year aged B10 at 40 °C was evaluated. Ageing of biodiesel increases acidity which might propagate polymer corrosion. The materials were evaluated as resistant, if the loss in tensile properties (tensile strength and elongation at break) and Shore hardness remained under 15 % compared to the initial unexposed material values. For investigations under compressed conditions, the compression set was determined for specimens of ACM, FKM and HNBR after exposure in heating oil B0 and B20 for 3,7,14, 28, 56 and 90 days at 40 °C according to ISO 815-1. It was found that the resistance in B20 at 40 °C was given for all tested polymers except PUR. In the 8 years aged B10, PUR and POM were not compatible and ACM just conditionally compatible. At 70 °C, FKM and PVC were resistant in B20, whereas HNBR and PA 6 were not compatible. Swelling occurred for the elastomers ACM, HNBR and PUR.
Recent studies have shown that even at a very low concentration of impurities (less than 100 ppmv of SO2, NO2, O2 and H2O) the droplet formation and condensation of sulfuric and nitric acids in dense phase CO2 are possible and observable. To reveal the mechanism of droplet corrosion in dense phase CO2 at high pressure and low temperature, further studies on factors that affect wettability and resulting corrosion behaviors of transport pipeline steels are needed. In this study, effects of surface morphology were investigated by varying surface roughness of carbon steel coupons exposed to CO2 stream containing impurities to measure the wettability by contact angle and to observe the condensation as well as possible droplet corrosion that followed. Other considered factors were: pH of the droplet, temperature, droplet volume, and exposure time.
