Biography

René Veerman received his MSc degree in civil engineering at Delft University of Technology, Netherlands. Since 2009 he works for ARCADIS Netherlands as structural engineer of concrete bridges and tunnels. In 2011 he started a PhD study within the STW perspective program Integral Solutions for Sustainable Construction (IS2C).

Research

In the last decades, traffic intensity has increased significantly and initiated a large number of structural induced local damages to many infrastructures. In addition, material induced damages caused by degradation mechanisms such as chloride ingress, ASR, and carbonation have increased as well. These processes have turned out to reduce the expected service-life of concrete infrastructures to a large extend. The National STW perspective program called “Integral Solution for Sustainable Construction” (IS2C) is developed to generate advanced knowledge that will be used to develop a cutting edge predictive simulation model for service-file assessment of infrastructures. One of the key projects within the IS2C program is the project called “InfraWatch”, which is a joint research initiative between Leiden University and Delft University of Technology with the main objective to scrutinize real time data received from bridges and other infrastructures. The data analysis and data mining results are generated by researchers from Leiden University while the physical interpretation and agreement with structural simulations is conducted at TU Delft.
