Participants will gain insights into the fundamental principles required to design and construct high-quality, durable, and sustainable concrete structures. It also covers the management of concrete performance in service and introduces the concept of life cycle analysis as a means of reducing carbon footprint and improving whole-life cost efficiency.
The programme is tailored for construction professionals currently involved in the production, application, and quality control of concrete, as well as those engaged in educational activities related to concrete construction. It is also well suited to recent graduates looking to specialise in concrete technology and construction.
