7th International Conference on Concrete Repair, Rehabilitation and Retrofitting
The 7th International Conference on Concrete Repair, Rehabilitation and Retrofitting (ICCRRR 2024) will focus on service life extension of existing infrastructure and durability design of new concrete structures. The fields of concrete repair, rehabilitation and retrofitting, as well as concrete durability and structural performance remain some of the most relevant for modern civil and structural engineering. To master the challenges arising from this it is important to remain updated on recent developments in material technology, construction methods, performance assessment and non-destructive testing, as well as design, specifications and guidelines, and service life prediction models for both new and repaired/rehabilitated structures.
The ICCRRR 2024 intends to bring together researchers, practicing engineers, infrastructure managers, concrete technologists, students, and the supporting industry from around the world to share knowledge and experience on current developments in concrete technology, durability design and service life management, condition assessment of concrete structures, and concrete repair, rehabilitation and retrofitting.
