Concrete Structures Connecting Mainland and Island

Concrete structures play a very important role in connecting mainland and islands, as well as in bringing undeveloped islands to life. They are also very important in protecting people living in coastal areas from natural hazards. Design and construction of bridges, tunnels, harbors and similar structures will be dealt with in papers covering this topic.

Concrete Structures in Energy Production

Energy production plays a key role in modern life. Structures like dams, wind power plants and other are connected with energy production facilities in which concrete structures are of vital importance. Design and construction of energy production facilities will be dealt with in this section.

New Materials

An ongoing development of new materials in concrete production and construction of concrete structures plays an important role in optimizing construction, design and further use of the concrete structures, as well as improving construction techniques and material characteristics. Papers in this section will show new development in these activities.

Analysis

With a growing development of computer software, new analysis of the behavior of concrete structures becomes increasingly complex. Papers in this section will show recent developments in this field.

Durability, Inspection and Maintenance

In a lifecycle of concrete structures, durability, inspection and maintenance are becoming more important in determining and prolonging their service life. Papers will show the latest scientific developments in this field.
