Repair and rehabilitation solutions
Our research in this area is designed to enable us to condition monitor, inspect and survey infrastructure, e.g. bridges, buildings, heritage structures, underground systems, water retaining structures, and give expert advice on their repair and maintenance.
Fictional human and real robot: sharing spaces with robots (interactive display, scriptwriting workshop and filmmaking session)
Over the course of the weekend, on the 19 and 20 November, researchers from Sheffield Hallam University's Materials and Engineering Research Institute will present an interactive display of their latest work in robot, AI and VR technology developed at Sheffield Robotics
Product development
The Centre for Infrastructure Management has an extensive expertise in assisting organisations to develop innovative products to remain competitive, including concept generation, novel pipe couplings, accelerated concrete curing technology and corrosion prevention systems.

Structural testing
This PhD aims to develop work by means of the relatively new Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) that permits a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of fracture and crack propagation in advanced composite structures
CIM PhD Research Opportunities
The Centre for Infrastructure Management has a number of research topics available for PhD projects in the structural concrete, structural steel, cementitious and non-cementitious materials, conservation of heritage structures, and energy efficiency infrastructure areas.
Forensic investigation of lightbulbs CPD course (Dates TBC)
This short course will explore opportunities and limitations of forensic failure investigation of automotive light bulbs.
Building insulation testing
At the Centre for Infrastructure Management, we are able to evaluate and test the comparative thermal performance of reflective and multi-foil insulations.
Hardness Testing
Hardness of materials has probably long been assessed by resistance to scratching or cutting
