The deadline for submission of abstracts for the 9th International Symposium on Sprayed Concrete – to be held at Scandic Park, Sandefjord, Norway June 17th – 20th 2024 – is fast approaching with final entries to be with the event committee by March 1st! The full Paper deadline follows two months later on 1st May 2024.
The event, organized by The Norwegian Concrete Society, is a calendar favorite for all involved in the sprayed concrete discipline, and already looks set to continue the event’s reputation for high quality presentations and thought provoking discussions and debates.
The themes for the 2024 event are:
– Low-carbon solutions
– Waterproofing (including injection)
– Equipment technology
– Materials development
– Projects and cases
– Application, quality control, documentation
– Other topics are also welcome
Of the event the Norwegian Concrete Society says:
“For many decades now wet mix sprayed concrete has been a prerequisite for safe under-ground space works, and in many cases also for the permanent support condition. There has been a constant development and improvement of the technology, such as: fibre reinforcement, introduction of alkali-free accelerators, more automatic spraying robots, laser scanning systems, etc. And today, for instance, there is a strive against greener (and slower) cements – can the industry cope with this development?
“Today the focus is on United Nation’s Sustainable Goals. Concrete, being the most used construction material in the world, has naturally gained great attention in this picture. Concrete mix-design and -solutions is therefore important keywords of today’s development trends, and this includes sprayed concrete.
“There is a constant need for innovation, and it is therefore necessary to meet frequently and exchange ideas and information about novel technology developments.
“There is a hope that the development is still going on for full speed in the sprayed concrete industry. So please, if you represent a university, material supplier, contractor, project owner, consultant, research company or others, you are very welcome to join the 9th International Symposium on Sprayed Concrete, either as audience only or as a presenter of a paper.”
