NRMCA Seeks Abstracts for 2016 Sustainability Conference, Deadline is October 30

NRMCA is seeking abstracts for the 2016 International Concrete Sustainability Conference (2016 ICSC) scheduled for May 15-18 in Washington, DC. Engineers, architects, public works officials, material suppliers, researchers, academics, students, contractors and concrete industry professionals are invited to share their research, experiences and accomplishments in advancing sustainable concrete design, manufacturing and construction by submitting abstracts.

The 11th annual International Concrete Sustainability Conference makes its way to the U.S. capital for the first time and will again feature a wide range of topics related to innovations in concrete sustainability. Abstracts are encouraged on topics ranging from resilience and low impact development to life cycle assessment and material science. Topics related to corporate social responsibility are also encouraged. Accepted abstracts, both papers and presentations, will be published online.

This is the first time the International Concrete Sustainability Conference will be co-located with the International Self-Consolidating Concrete (SCC) Conference. The primary sponsors, NRMCA and Missouri S&T, hope that combining these important conferences will provide learning and networking opportunities on the latest advances, technical knowledge, continuing research, tools and solutions for sustainable concrete and SCC design, manufacturing and construction.

Submit online at www.2016icsc.org by Friday, October 30. For more information, contact Lionel Lemay at LLemay@nrmca.org or 847-918-7101.
