The conference is established as a final discussion around COST Action TU1404 (open to any interested person/party), which is centred in early age behaviour and its interaction with service life of cement-based materials and structures. A strong focus is given to interdisciplinary approaches and towards new exciting fields of research that inherently require collaborative work among scientific disciplines. This conference counts on the simultaneous support of fib, COST, RILEM, ACI and JCI. Therefore, in view of this global reasoning the following set of sub-topics is envisaged: Concrete technology and advanced material testing, Multi-scale in time and space modelling and experiments, Multi-physics simulation and structural design, BIM and structural concrete, Robotics and cement-based materials, Digital fabrication, On-site monitoring and structural condition assessment, Scientific insights vs. standardisation, New materials : bio-based, geopolymers and alkali-activated materials and Fibre-reinforced concrete and non-metallic reinforcement.
