All: Please see the attached email. Thanks, Alan From: David M Rater <dmrater(a)purdue.edu> Sent: Tuesday, July 8, 2025 9:59 AM To: Alan Holtman <aeholtman(a)purdue.edu> Subject: RE: Building Flood FYI. Send out this updated version. Thanks. From: David M Rater Sent: Tuesday, July 8, 2025 8:08 AM To: Alan Holtman <aeholtman(a)purdue.edu<mailto:aeholtman@purdue.edu>> Subject: Building Flood To those affected by the building flood, EHS encourages you to work from home if your job allows. The damage from the flood was far greater than originally determined and could take the rest of the week to dry out. The fans that are positioned throughout the building need to stay running. If you need to turn the fan off briefly for a meeting or phone call, that's fine, please be sure to turn them back on immediately. The contractor, accompanied with Purdue staff, will be going around to the affected areas to remove drywall, cove base or poke holes in the walls to speed up drying. If you have any questions, please email Dave Rater at dmrater(a)purdue.edu<mailto:dmrater@purdue.edu> and I will try to get your questions answered as soon as possible. Thanks for your cooperation during this time. Alan - please send out this memo to occupants when you arrive.

We hope you’ll be able to join for this insightful presentation. "Exploring the use of multi-scale plant-based fibers in 3D concrete printing" [https://mailimages.purdue.edu/eng-construction-engineering-management/3d_pr…] Date: July 2, 2025 Time: 10:00 AM-11:00 AM Location: HAMP G212 Abstract This presentation discusses a Fulbright-funded preliminary study on the use of multiscale plant-based fibers in 3D concrete printing, focusing on their potential reinforcing effects and internal curing properties. Micronized hemp, millimeter-sized hemp particles, and 6mm long natural fibers are incorporated into the cementitious matrix. The effects of pre-treatment with sodium hydroxide solution and silica fume slurry are studied. Printability, mechanical properties, and microstructure of the selected materials are analyzed. Future research plans are outlined to better understand the behavior of these materials and investigate their role in advancing sustainable 3D printed concrete. Bio Dr. Rajczakowska has obtained her master’s degree in civil engineering from Wroclaw University of Technology, Poland, and her PhD in building materials from Luleå University of Technology, Sweden. She is currently a post-doctoral researcher in the Building Materials group at Luleå University of Technology. Her work encompasses various aspects of sustainable building materials, including self-healing concrete, mechanochemical activation of recycled concrete fines, alkali-activated materials, and multifunctional concrete, including nuclear shielding properties. She has been a 2025 Fulbright Scholar at Purdue University, working with 3D printing cementitious composites. Dr Rajczakowska has authored over twenty peer-reviewed papers, serves on RILEM technical committees, and collaborates on eco-efficient infrastructure projects with Swedish industry and academia in Sweden, Poland, and Australia.
