IES Virtual Classroom - Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM) For Reinforced Concrete - 22nd Run (Registration closed)

With the rapid global infrastructure development, there is a new focus on sustainable usage of concrete. Using Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM) like silica fume, pulverized fuel ash or ground granulated blast furnace slag to replace or compliment cement is one practical area to achieve sustainability which is gaining importance.

Target Audiences - Owners, Architects, Engineers, Resident Technical Officers, Site Supervisors will experience handling more demanding and complex projects in current development projects and may involve working with SCM. This course also provide information on the nature of these SCM and the resulting properties of concrete batched using such materials to participants to allow them to better execute their projects.
