Notice Information

Notice Title

3D Tomography System

Notice Description

The School of Civil Engineering at the University of Leeds is seeking tenders for Micro X-ray Computed Tomography (uXCT) capabilities, with the option to view large samples, and with the possibility of controlling the sample environment (be that temperature, load, gaseous environment, or similar). These capabilities may be met through more than one instrument, if necessary, but single instruments would be preferred. The new instrument will be a facility within a National Centre for Infrastructure Materials funded as part of UKCRIC (UK Collaboratorium for Research in Infrastructure and Cities). This National Centre will be a focus for research on the deterioration of infrastructure materials (cement, concrete, metals, masonry, timber, glass and soils) and will build on the University of Leeds' reputation for work on cement and concrete.
