Concrete Conference in Leipzig

On two days of lectures, the latest developments in concrete construction were presented at the 10th Concrete Conference in Leipzig. The Technical University of Dresden, the Leipzig University of Applied Sciences (HTWK) and the Dresden University of Applied Sciences (HTW) hosted this conference, which was accompanied by a large trade exhibition, on behalf of the Concrete Information Center.

The topics of carbon concrete and hybrid structures with wood composites and the new possibilities of construction using 3D printing were discussed on the first day in the Building Material Innovations session. In the field of 3D concrete printing, our ToniFORCE (fully automatic penetrometer apparatus) offers many advantages.
