UU defective concrete block research exploration to Canada hailed a success

A defective concrete block research exploration to Canada by Ulster University has been hailed a success.

During a week long visit, Dr Eileen Doherty and Professor Paul Dunlop witnessed first hand cutting-edge experiments that are being done on Donegal aggregates at Laval University.

They also travelled to a city where 8000 homes have been affected by defective concrete.
