5th RILEM International Conference on Concrete and Digital Fabrication (DC 2026)

The RILEM International Conference on Concrete and Digital Fabrication, known as Digital Concrete, is a biennial event that brings together experts from academia and industry to discuss advancements in digital fabrication technologies in construction. Starting with ETH Zurich in 2018, the conference series continued at Eindhoven University of Technology (2020), Loughborough University (2022), and Technical University of Munich (2024).

Each Digital Concrete conference has significantly contributed to the advancement of digital fabrication technologies in construction, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange among experts worldwide. Following the successful previous events, we are delighted to announce the upcoming 5th RILEM International Conference on Concrete and Digital Fabrication (DC2026), which will take place from 18th to 21st of October 2026 in Nanjing, China. The 6th International Conference on 3D Printing Concrete Materials and Structures (3DPCMS-2026) will be held alongside DC2026.

The joint conference will be hosted by Southeast University and co-organized by the State Key Laboratory of Engineering Materials for Major Infrastructure, the China Concrete & Cement-based Products Association (CCPA), and Sobute New Materials Co., Ltd..

Before the formal conference, Doctoral Course will be provided for graduate and PhD students on 16th to 17th of October 2026.

We look forward to welcoming researchers, practitioners, industry leaders, and policymakers from around the world to foster deeper collaboration, networking, and knowledge sharing in the exciting journey towards a digitally driven and sustainable future in construction.
