Sustainability is the leading construction industry initiative striving to achieve net zero carbon impact and improve environmental responsibility in the built environment. It is an initiative that is proving to be a disruptive force inspiring innovation, collaboration, creativity, versatility, change and a return to fundamental best practices. Professionals throughout the concrete industry face an onslaught of new materials and information that can be daunting to effectively evaluate.
This informative webinar will review key essential materials being used in today’s concreting and grouting applications to meet sustainable design requirements and discuss their compatibility with and complement to shrinkage-compensating concrete and grout designs. We’ll cover how shrinkage-compensating concrete helps improve overall durability, performance, and structural behavior, overcome negative volume change, and improve constructability and project efficiencies. Designed versatility and the engineered systems approach will be presented, as well as information to assist in developing successful specifications using today’s high-performance materials.
Join us to learn how shrinkage-compensating cement concrete and grouts complement today’s sustainable materials and helps you achieve optimum performance, constructability, value and sustainable design.
