INFRASTRUCTURE RENEWAL

Deteriorating and damaged infrastructure is a critical problem throughout the world, and bringing these structures up to modern standards will require massive expenditures for most countries. With the US, EU, and India (among others) planning to invest billions in infrastructure renewal over the next few years it is crucial that a systematic, holistic approach be implemented to effectively address the existing deficiencies while designing durable structures for the future.

The aim of Anna Maria Workshop XXI will be to examine these issues and more. We are therefore inviting presentations dealing with (but not necessarily limited to) the following topic areas:

• Service life prediction
• Specification changes
• Repair materials
• Novel materials
• Ultra High Performance Concrete
• Material characterization
• Carbon reduction
• In situ monitoring and testing
• Durability design
• Other related topics

We look forward to seeing you on beautiful Anna Maria Island in November.
