The object of the project is the procurement of equipment for the Building Materials Laboratory of the Department of Civil Engineering of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), aiming at the correct characterisation of materials through their mineralogical identification (XRD) and the finding of secondary phases and trace elements (XRF). Within the framework of the project, the network of collaborations of the Building Materials Laboratory will be used for the updating of the new institutions and the promotion of research. The official website of the workshop will also be updated and enriched with the new possibilities it will have. The ability of the laboratory to cooperate with stakeholders in the Region of Central Macedonia to carry out technical projects, will strengthen the interdisciplinary partnership and enable the exploitation of both equipment and human resources through the contact of research with real problems of the local community.
