About the Conference

Over the past three decades, extensive deterioration has been reported in numerous concrete structures, notably in Canada, the USA and Ireland, due to deleterious oxidation reactions in sulfide-bearing aggregates and subsequent internal sulfate attack. This conference will focus on discussing, evolve diverse ideas and try to address these issues to better concrete buildings. It is vital to identify additional crucial issues and help understand why they occur. In addition to the structural implications, this serious concrete pathology has had a profound impact on the lives of individuals and families living or working in affected buildings. In response, it has spurred extensive scientific research and engineering developments to better understand the mechanisms involved, identify the critical influential parameters, develop practical solutions to deal with structures affected and propose recommendations for preventing potential (future) cases.
