Concrete Innovations: Sustainability and the Role of Concrete in Net Zero Design

Learning Objectives:

1. Understand the basics of embodied carbon in concrete and its impact on the environment
2. Describe effective methodologies for specifying concrete products to create a long-lasting, durable building and sustainable architecture
3. Explain how material innovations in the concrete industry are moving towards zero carbon concrete
4. List two design solutions presented that demonstrate concrete’s role in improved building safety and resiliency

This webinar is part of the Concrete Academy

Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world. In this webinar, panelists will discuss material innovations in concrete and the growing role of concrete in sustainable development. Demand for building construction shows no sign of decreasing and the demand for concrete will likely increase. With sustainability and environmental considerations at the forefront of the industry, the panel will also discuss ways to reduce concrete’s carbon footprint.
