LAST CHANCE TO SUBMIT YOUR ABSTRACT to the 14th International Symposium on Concrete Roads!!

17/02/2022

Anyone interested is invited to submit an abstract – around 300 words, written in English – related to the themes listed below.

The participant has to fill in the abstract submission form by 10 April 2022 at the latest.

Themes:

1. Concrete roads and the green deal (CO₂ reduction – LCA – new binders – albedo – fuel consumption – energy – air and water quality)
2. Concrete roads and the circular economy (Circular concepts – recycling – cradle to cradle)
3. Concrete roads and economic aspects (LCCA – tendering procedures – price stability – competition)
4. Concrete roads and society (Driving comfort – noise – safety – skid resistance – safety barriers)
5. Innovative concepts for concrete roads (Big data – BIM – ITS – sensors – energy harvesting roads – electric roads)
6. Materials and pavement design (Materials, cement/concrete for various paving applications, concrete road materials for a minimum carbon footprint)

7. Highways (Motorways – expressways – CRCP and JPCP – overlays)
8. High axle-load areas (Truck parking area – airport pavements – industrial pavements)
9. Urban applications (Urban roads and streets – intersections and roundabouts – pedestrian pavements – cycling paths – decorative concrete)
10. Maintenance and preservation strategies and techniques (Preservation – repair – maintenance – surface treatments – structural capacity assessment and instrumentation – surface characteristics)
11. Case studies (General reports on project applications)

And the 2 special sessions:

S-1. Baselayers (Hydraulically bound base layers – soil stabilization – in‑situ pavement recycling)
S-2. Concrete block paving (Concrete paving blocks – tiles – slabs – removable pavements)

The Symposium will be held in Krakow, Poland from 25 till 29 June 2023.
