* Research in AMT
Research in AMT is consist of the following three viewpoints.
 |
AMT seeks for the application of new materials and researches the new performance evaluation method and usage of materials. |
 |
AMT researches the durability and the prevention of rust technology of materials.
In addition, AMT researches the reduction of the life-cycle cost and long-term durability evaluation methods. |
 |
AMT researches the toxic substance of materials and the reduction of the environmental load material.
Besides, AMT researches switch to materials reducing environmental load and environmental assessment methods. |
These issues will be solved and materials will be enhanced in terms of chemistry mainly.
