The 9th international conference on advanced composites in construction, ACIC 2019, is inviting abstracts on relevant subjects.
The conference takes place from 3-5 September 2019 at the University of Birmingham, UK and features topics within the construction industry that highlight the use of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials in all-FRP structures as well as strengthening, refurbishment and reinforcement applications in traditional infrastructure.
Prospective participants are invited to submit a short abstract, to include the contact details of the corresponding author and affiliation of co-authors here by 9 November 2018.
Proposed sessions for the conference should include, but are not limited to:
- Strengthening of concrete and masonry structures
- Strengthening of metallic and timber structures
- Internal reinforcement and prestressing
- Wholly polymeric structures
- FRP materials and systems
- Long term performance and durability
- Damage mechanics and failure criteria
- Analysis and design
- Inspection and monitoring
The event will also feature a poster competition for the next generation of structural engineers to showcase their research.
