The program
CACRCS 2023
Capacity assessment of corroded reinforced concrete structures: from research to daily engineering evaluation
the Program 2023
Preliminary Program
Special sessions are organised during the workshop. Authors are invited to kindly select the session at which they will present their papers. Each session will include both research and engineering applications focussing on what is needed for the evaluation of corroded structures.
CACRCS DAYS 2023 includes a Round table to promote discussions.
The workshop offers didactic material for engineers, practitioners, scientists, concrete technologists, researchers, and academics to further knowledge about corrosion of reinforced concrete structures.
