10th international conference on CONcrete under Severe Conditions – Environment and Loading (CONSEC) will be held on 25-27th of September 2024 at IIT Madras. This conference focuses on the advancements in the areas related to the design, construction, testing, and preservation of various construction materials and systems exposed to severe environmental and loading conditions. Earlier CONSECs were held in Japan (1995), Norway (1998), Canada (2001), South Korea (2004), France (2007), Mexico (2010), China (2013), Italy (2016), and Brazil (2019).

Now, the Centre of Excellence on Technologies for Low-Carbon and Lean Construction (TLC2) at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras feels proud and privileged to organize the 10th CONSEC in Chennai, India (named as CONSEC24). We have also planned pre- and post-conference workshops on allied topics. CONSEC24 will provide a single platform for exchanging ideas in both focussed and holistic manner for the design, construction and conservation of reinforced concrete structures experiencing severe conditions. We invite students, researchers, faculty members, and practitioners working in the relevant areas of structural engineering and construction materials to attend CONSEC24 and make it a huge success.

Posted on: December 12, 2023   We are delighted to announce the PhD Symposium on Technologies for Low-Carbon & Lean Construction (TLC2) to be held (in-person) on Sunday, 28th January 2024. The symposium will provide a premium forum for young researchers to present advances and research results in the construction materials and management sector, interact with peers and experts, and network during the event. Based on abstract submission and five minute videos about the PhD work of Senior PhD students and recent graduates, we have selected 14 YRS speakers for this year.
