Concrete’s versatility, durability, sustainability and economy have made it the world’s most widely used construction material. The strength, stiffness, workability and durability of modern concrete can all be influenced by raw material types, mix recipe, handling and placement techniques, etc. As well, these factors can affect the concrete’s appearance, weather and wear resistance and susceptibility to chemical attack and undesirable reactions within the concrete.
This four-part series is intended for construction professionals who want to know more about the world’s most common building material. The series focuses on how concrete and cement technologies impact sustainability, constructability and life-cycle of the finished concrete/concrete product.
Since the 1st edition was published by PCA in the 1920’s, the Design and Control of Concrete manual has become a primary cement and concrete industry reference.
Local and National industry professionals will guide you through this reference standard, sharing their experiences and the latest advances in concrete technologies.
This Program will be taught in Four (4) Sessions:
