SUMMARY:ECSN webinar: Concrete and sustainability – an update on ongoing efforts in Europe – Part 2
DESCRIPTION:﻿﻿ \nECSN is a network of European concrete societies comprising of 15 members. In this webinar\, we have brought together experts from within ECSN circles to present examples from various European countries on how the concrete construction sector can reduce its impact on the climate. This is the third webinar that ECSN has organised in the field of sustainable concrete. The first webinar was arranged on 25 November 2021 on the topic ”Concrete and sustainability – an update on ongoing efforts in Europe” and the second was arranged on 29 March 2023 on the topic “Binders and concrete for the next decade”. \nThe cement and concrete industry contribute significantly to global CO2 emissions. Concrete research on sustainability involves exploring various aspects of sustainability and finding practical solutions to address environmental\, social and economic challenges. In this webinar focus will be both on the design aspects as well as materials. In some countries there is already a change in legislation\, and it is important to design in a more optimal way where CO2 emission will be an important side condition which includes changing strength\, using prestressed concrete\, alternative cement based materials\, recycling and new production techniques. Examples of all these efforts will be presented and discussed in this webinar. \nWelcome!\nECSN – European Concrete Societies Network \nWebinar: Concrete and sustainability – an update on ongoing efforts in Europe – Part 2\nTime: 28 February 2024\, 11.00 – 16:30 (CET) \nThe webinar is free\, but registration is needed for participation. \n  \nProgram\n\n\n\n11:00\nIntroduction: European Concrete Societies Network\nRichard McCarthy\, Chairman\n\n\n11:10\nThe Globe Consensus – a Global Initiative for Decarbonization of the Construction Sector\nMichael Havbro Faber\, Aalborg University (Denmark) and Harbin Institute of Technology (China)\n\n\n11:40\nHow standards can support sustainability of cement and concrete\nChristoph Müller\, Managing Director\, VDZ Technology (Germany)\n\n\n12:00\nFuture and emerging Supplementary Cementing Materials (SCMs)\nProfessor Ruben Snellings\, KU Leuven (Belgium)\n\n\n12:20\nA natural sedimentary pozzolan for future green cements in Northern Europe\nUrs Müller\, Technical Manager\, Schwenk Sweden (Latvia)\n\n\n12:40\nBreak\n\n\n13:10\nClimate-driven Structural Design in Early Design Phases – Concrete bridges\nRasmus Rempling\, Associate Professor\, Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden)\n\n\n13:30\nPartnership for sustainability goal 17: The Alo building – a case study\nBjørnar Hamstad\, Head of Construction Section\, Multiconsult (Norway)\n\n\n13:50\nReturned readymixed concrete\, washing equipment and recycling\nLauri Labe\, Quality Manager\, Betoonimeister AS (Estonia)\n\n\n14:10\nElectromobility in the concrete industry\nKai Westphal\, Manager of concrete production and distribution\, Steypustöðin RMC-producer (Iceland)\n\n\n14:30\nBreak\n\n\n14:40\n(P)RECAST – reuse of precast concrete elements\nKatja Udbye Christensen\, Business Manager\, Danish Technological Institute (Denmark)\n\n\n15:00\nReusing prefabricated concrete for a circular economy\nProfessor Satu Huuhka (Finland)\n\n\n15:20\nRecycled aggregates\, green product\,  green opportunities\nWalter Speelman\, Manager Technology & Sustainability Beton\, Heidelberg Materials (The Netherlands)\n\n\n15:40\nMeasuring the Life Cycle GHG Emissions of High Performance Concretes\nDr William Wilson\, Sustainability Manager\, Ireland Materials\, Roadstone (Ireland)\n\n\n16:00\nUK Concrete Sustainable Construction Strategic Priorities\nDr Noushin Khosravi\, Sustainable Construction Manager\, UK Concrete\, MPA (UK)\n\n\n\n16:20\nSummary and general discussions\n\n\n16:30\nClosing\n\n\n\n
