Anaclet TURATSINZE is a senior lecturer at – Habilité à diriger des recherches (HDR), he teaches in the Civil Engineering department of the IUT A , Université Paul SABATIER (Toulouse III) and carries out his research work at the Materials and Durability of Constructions Laboratory (LMDC) of the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées and the Université Paul Sabatier de Toulouse.

Inexpensive and easy to process, cementitious materials dominate the building materials market. Nevertheless, their low tensile strength combined with their low deformation capacity make them very brittle and susceptible to cracking. Cracking due to imposed deformations is a case in point, limiting the durability of applications. Mechanical tests have confirmed that the incorporation of aggregates with...
