The construction materials industry is a major user of the world’s resources. While enormous progress has been made towards sustainability, the scope and opportunities for further improvements are significant. This conference is intended to highlight case studies and research that show new and innovative ways of achieving sustainability of construction materials and technologies.

Over 180 papers from over 40 countries will be presented which will be of interest to:Civil EngineersArchitectsConstruction Managersand all other professions related to the construction industry.

VenueThe conference will be held at Coventry University. The campus is in the City-Centre within easy walking distance of a wide range of shops and other facilities. The City of Coventry is in the centre of England and is just 15 minutes from Birmingham airport and 90 minutes from London Heathrow by car.

Coventry was the original centre of the British car industry and, in particular, Jaguar cars. The City-Centre has numerous shops, cafes, pubs, and museums and many historic buildings including the three cathedrals. The first one was demolished during the dissolution of the monasteries and only the foundations remain. The second one was bombed in the great raid of 1940 and the walls and tower remain. The third one is one of the most famous examples of 20th century architecture and a major tourist attraction.

On each day of the conference lunch will be served in St Mary’s Guildhall. This spectacular medieval hall is just 3 minutes walk from the conference venue.

St Mary’s Guildhall served as the centre of King Henry VI’s court during the Wars of the Roses and as a prison to Mary, Queen of Scots. William Shakespeare is thought to have staged his plays here and writer George Elliot, who knew the hall well, used it as the setting for a scene in one of her novels. Its kitchens have prepared banquets for visiting monarchs and have fed starving weavers. It has been the good-humoured starting point for the famous Godiva Processions and been damaged in violent election riots. It was scarred by, but survived, the Blitz of Coventry during the Second World War and it continues to this day to welcome visitors from all over the world.

Daily ProgrammeTours will be subject to an additional charge. Please note that

tours may be cancelled if under-subscribed and that tickets

may not be available if they are over-subscribed.

Sunday 10 June 20079.00 am- 12.00 pm Pre-conference tour to Stoneleigh Abbey Founded in 1154 by a group of Cistercian monks, Stoneleigh Abbey reflects a rich mixture of more than 800 years of history. The estate was the home of the Leigh family from 1561 until the late twentieth century. Many famous people have connections with the Abbey: Charles I was entertained here when the gates of Coventry were closed against him, Jane Austen stayed at the Abbey and uses descriptions of its grand interiors and gardens in two of her novels, and in 1858 Queen Victoria and Prince Albert stayed at Stoneleigh.

2.00 pm-4.00 pm Pre-conference walking tour of Coventry The city of three cathedrals, a medieval Guildhall where Mary Queen of Scots was held, the legend of Lady Godiva, and the largest transport museum in the World will be featured in the tour. Coventry was also the place where a Parliament was held and was once the capital of England, whilst writers such as George Eliot were educated here and she later used the city as a backdrop to two of her novels.

Opening Reception , from 5 pm: Coventry Transport MuseumWelcoming addresses from the Vice Chancellor of Coventry University

and the Lord Mayor of Coventry. A buffet will be served. Entertainment

with ‘Lady Godiva’ and visit to the Coventry Transport Museum

exhibits.

Although Britain is home to several motor/transport museums, none

is more appropriately sited than that this one in Coventry - the city

in which Britain’s road transport industry was born and which, more

than any other, has helped to get this country mobile. Originally

opened as the Museum of British Road Transport in 1980, it has

recently been renamed Coventry Transport Museum following a four

year £ 7.5 million revamp carried out as part of Coventry’s city centre

regeneration program. The result is the largest collection of British

road transport exhibits in the world, with over 500 machines on exhibit

in the impressive new facility which boasts 125,000 square feet of floor

space. As the name suggests, there is more to the museum than just

cars, with the exhibits also including bikes and commercial vehicles

and with period sets and audio-visual presentations helping to convey

the history of British road transport and Coventry’s important - and

continuing - part in it.

Monday 11 JuneConference presentations: Opening plenary session followed by four parallel sessions Lunch in St Mary’s Guildhall

Accompanying persons tour: Warwick and Stratford upon Avon WarwickWarwick Castle was the home of the Earls of Warwick and is now owned by Madame Tussauds.

Professor Moriconi of Universita Politecnica Delle Marche has contributed to the state-of-the-art in the area of concrete durability and sustainable construction. His contributions had the advantage of the opportunity he had as a professional engineer to connect research activity to experience in the field. As a professional engineer he was able to implement an effective technology transfer policy as applied to research and the construction industry in a synergistic sense. Over time, this methodology resulted in

improved standards for civil engineering construction projects and a culture of high-grade training for the work force in the construction industries.
