SUMMARY:ECSN Webinar: Durability & Sustainability: Europe’s Next Steps Forward
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the 5th ECSN Webinar\n\nDownload presentation slides here (Dropbox) »\n  \nDurability & Sustainability: Europe’s Next Steps Forward\nThis webinar is organized by the European Concrete Societies Network (ECSN)\n📅 26 February 2026\n⏰ 10:00–16:00 CET\n🎥 Live from Oslo – broadcast directly from the Tekna Studio \nJoin us for a dynamic full-day webinar exploring how Europe is strengthening the future of its built environment while accelerating the transition to low-carbon materials. Featuring experts\, real-world cases\, and industry insights\, this event is designed for anyone working with concrete\, construction\, infrastructure\, or sustainability. \nWhat to Expect\n🔹 Part 1 — Durability of Concrete Structures \nEurope’s infrastructure is aging—and the need to preserve\, strengthen\, and repair existing concrete structures is important. In this session\, leading experts will share the latest research\, challenges\, and practical approaches to extending service life and improving resilience. \n🔹 Part 2 — Scaling Up Industrial Decarbonization \nCement and concrete producers across Europe are adopting next-generation materials\, technologies\, and processes to cut emissions. This session brings together the whole concrete sector to discuss what’s working\, what’s next\, and how the sector is progressing toward carbon neutrality. \nModerators: Cecilie Hagby – Chair of ECSN & Managing Director of the Norwegian Concrete Association and Børge Johannes Wigum – Former Chair of Icelandic Concrete Association. \nProgram\n\n\n\n10.00-10.10\nOpening: Welcome\, practical information and presentation about ECSN\nCecilie Hagby\, ECSN Chair\, Norwegian Concrete Association\nNorway\n\n\nPart 1 — Durability of Concrete Structures\n\n\n10.10-10.30\nRestraint-induced Cracking in Service Life Design: Limitations of Current Models and Emerging Research Directions\nProf. Agnieszka Jedrzejewska\, Silesian University of Technology\nPoland\n\n\n10.30-10.50\nTechnical Condition of Existing Precast Concrete Sandwich Panels\nKristo Paalandi\, Tallinn University of Technology\, Building structures research group\nEstonia\n\n\n10.50-11.10\nStructural Assessment and Rehabilitation of Concrete Bridges in Greece\nDr Panagiotis Panetsos\, Head of Structures Inspection & Maintenance in Egnatia Motorway S.A.\nGreece\n\n\n11.10-11.30\nOn-site Corrosion Condition Assessment\, Monitoring and Prediction\nCarmen Andrade\, Chair of RILEM TC-314-OCM\nRILEM\n\n\n11.30-12.00\nBreak\n\n\n\n\n12.00-12.20\nIs there a contradiction between Durability and Sustainability?\nChristian Munch-Petersen\, Project manager\, emcon\nDenmark\n\n\n12.20-12.40\nSustainable by Design\, Durable by Data: Mastering In-Transit Quality Control for the Next Generation of Concrete\nDr. David Alós Shepherd \, Alcemy\nGermany\n\n\n12-40-13.00\nDiscussion and break\n\n\n\n\nPart 2 — Scaling Up Industrial Decarbonization\n\n\n13.00-13.20\nNext Generation Concrete: the CCUS Precast Plant\nMs Niina Haapasalo Chief Technology Officer\nFinland\n\n\n13.20-13.40\nIndustrial Scale Ups of Decarbonization Strategies\nJohn Reddy\, Ecocem\nIrland\n\n\n13.40-14.00\nX-clinker: An Innovative Eco-efficient Solution for Cement Production\nRogério Colaço\, Professor\, Instituto Superior Técnico\, University of Lisbon\nPortugal\n\n\n14.00-14.20\nCCS at the Heidelberg Materials -Brevik Cement Plant and Further Plans\nCecilie Nødtvedt\, Sustainability Manager Heidelberg Materials\nNorway\n\n\n14.20-14.30\nBreak\n\n\n\n\n14.30-14.50\nProduct Development of a New Pozzolan SCM Concept\nÅke Roos\, Product Manager\, Boliden\nSweden\n\n\n14.50-15.10\nDecarbonization Strategies of Pre-cast Concrete Products from Latvia\nMr. Ernests Ozolins of company MB Betons\nLatvia\n\n\n15.10-15.30\nFrom Knowledge to Practice: How the fib Model Code 2020 Shapes Sustainable Concrete Structures\nDr.ir.
