Next Technical Seminar

Date: 11th March 2024 | Venue: Simon Perry Building, Trinity College Dublin

Embark on a journey through the evolving landscape of concrete technology. The latest developments in 3D concrete printing and its challenges will be shown as well as the AI-controlled optimisation of concrete mix designs from normal concrete to ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) based on raw material parameters. In combination with this, the future role of AI-controlled in-process quality control with sensor systems and prediction of concrete quality. This trifecta of innovations demonstrates a paradigm shift in the concrete industry that promises sustainable, efficient and high-performance concrete solutions.

Who should attend

This free to attend lecture will be of interest to all those who are involved in the design, specification, production and construction of concrete. Those who should attend include ready-mixed and precast concrete producers, concrete technologists, cement producers, design engineers, consulting engineers and engineers in contracting and sub-contracting firms.
