43rd ICT Convention/Symposium
Concrete: Innovation and Practical Applications
26th March 2015
Concrete is a highly adaptable material and capable of variation and development. It is only
limited by our knowledge, imagination and willingness to accept practical change.
There is no obvious and available substitute and making the best use of the materials performance
capability is in our own self- interest.
Both materials and applicational aspects will be presented by those involved in these emerging
changes. There will be opportunity to question and discuss current developments. The symposium
will appeal and be relevant to both those that are interested in concrete’s versatility as well as
those that make a livelihood from it.
