After the great success of the last conference in Montreal in 2017, the ACI (American Concrete Institute) and RILEM (Reunion Internationale des Laboratoires et Experts des Materiaux, Systemes de Construction et Outrages = International Union of Laboratories and Experts in Construction Materials, Systems, and Structures) invite all to submit an abstract for the “International Conference on Cementitious Materials and Alternative Binders for Sustainable Concrete (ICCM2020)” to be held June 29 to July 1st, 2020 in Toulouse, France!
Abstract DEADLINE is March 1, 2019!
The purpose of this international conference is to present the latest available scientific and technical information in the field of supplementary cementitious materials and novel binders for use in concrete. The new aspect of this edition is to highlight advances in the field of alternative and sustainable binders and supplementary cementitious materials, for which the research is growing in importance. Original papers on all aspects of pozzolans, mineral admixtures, standard and alternative supplementary cementitious materials are invited to be presented at the conference and be published in the proceedings. Key topics include:
- Microstructure and hydration
- Multi-component binder systems
- Alternative supplementary cementitious materials
- Alkali activated materials
- Alternative binders
- Nanomaterials
- Chemical admixtures
- Concrete mix designs for sustainable development
- Rheology
- Curing techniques
- Mechanical performances and durability
- Modeling of concrete properties
- Life-cycle analysis
- Service life
- Standard and test method development
- Case studies
- Special concrete
- Biosourced materials
- Recycled materials
