Overview

The International Conference on the Durability of Concrete Structures (ICDCS) series brings together leading experts in the field of concrete durability from around the world. It presents and discusses recent progress and latest developments in materials technology, assessment of performance both in laboratories and on site, service life concepts and reuse and recycling of construction materials and products to enable concrete construction to be durable and sustainable. This conference at the University of Leeds is the sixth in the ICDCS series and comprises over 110 papers covering seven key themes, preceded by plenary and keynote contributions.
