This project investigates roofing slates using X-ray micro-Computed Tomography to understand their mechanical behavior, production challenges, and mineral changes during weathering. The research aims to enhance the use of slates in construction and support the economy of European slate-producing regions.
Europe is nowadays the world’s leading producer and consumer of roofing slate.
Slate quarries are found in most European countries.
However, despite their importance as a building stone, roofing slates are a relatively unexamined material.
In comparison with other building stones, there is a lack of research and scientific publications on roofing slates.Applying expertise in X-ray micro-Computed Tomography (MCT) for the study of roofing slates will make it possible to determine several unresolve…
