7th fib Congress

The congress motto – “Structural Concrete 2050: Towards Carbon Neutrality, AI Design, and Robotic Construction” – aims to highlight the ultimate goal of sustainability and the opportunities that emerging technologies will bring to concrete structures.

 

Scope and topics

With the congress motto “Structural Concrete 2050: Towards Carbon Neutrality, AI Design, and Robotic Construction,” we invite delegates to submit papers that will help shape the future of structural concrete.

Topics can include recent advancements in materials for structural concrete, innovative construction and prefabrication methods, new tools for design and analysis, novel approaches for existing concrete structures, cutting-edge projects, and noteworthy case studies, as well as recently approved or ongoing work related to codes, standards, pre-norms, and guidelines for concrete structures.
