Australia needs to spend at least $500 million annually on the repair and upgrading of concrete structures alone just to maintain our existing civil infrastructure. Furthermore, it has been estimated that more than 500 deaths and $10 billion damage will be caused by a moderate earthquake in Sydney or Melbourne. Most of this damage will be due to the collapse of buildings. This research will develop a new form of ductile plating that will reduce the cost of retrofitting concrete bridges and buildings. This project will also help train two PhD students and one Research Associate and further enhance the existing collaboration between Australia and Italy.

澳大利亚每年至少需要花费5亿澳元用于修复和升级混凝土结构，以维持我们现有的民用基础设施。此外，据估计，如果悉尼或墨尔本发生中等地震，将造成500多人死亡和100亿美元的损失。大部分损失将是由于建筑物倒塌造成的。这项研究将开发出一种新型的韧性镀层，这将降低混凝土桥梁和建筑物的改造成本。该项目还将帮助培养两名博士生和一名研究助理，进一步加强澳大利亚和意大利之间现有的合作。
