The 16th High Performance Concrete Symposium Pre-notification

As a core foundational material in engineering construction, high-performance concrete's energy-saving, consumption-reducing, environmentally friendly, and intelligent high-efficiency technological innovations are key supports for promoting the transformation and upgrading of the construction industry and achieving ecologically harmonious development. To focus on green and low-carbon technological innovation in the concrete field, address industry challenges such as high resource consumption, high energy use, complex construction, and insufficient environmental adaptability in engineering applications, and to build a platform for domestic and international academic exchange, technical discussion, and achievement transformation. In 2026, the 16th High-Performance Concrete Academic Symposium will be held in Jinan, Shandong.

This academic symposium will gather the expertise of domestic and international experts to share cutting-edge research results and major engineering practices, promote the development and advancement of high-performance concrete technology, and facilitate the application and development of new theories, new methods, new equipment, and new performance testing and evaluation technologies of high-performance concrete in construction projects, collectively injecting new green and intelligent momentum into various engineering constructions.
