Transcript of Possible samples
• SEM micrograph with indentation grid
• Indents spaced 10 μm horizontally and 20 μm vertically
• Wide variety within indent space• Transitions in mechanical
properties consistent with interphase regions
• Future work• Evaluate mechanisms of
degradation• Improve correlation
between phase and properties
• Elucidate interaction between indenter and surface

Concrete and Steel Reinforcement• Characterizing the interface
between concrete and steel reinforcement
• Interphases between materials not well defined
