Presentations in your office
The Concrete Centre is staffed by architects,
structural engineers, building physicists and material specialists
and our aim is to enable designers to realise the potential of
concrete for their projects.
Project assistance
If you are at the design stage of your project and need generic
guidance on concrete solutions we can help. By providing access to
our own knowledge, as well as our technical best practice guidance,
we can assist you.
For more information please email info@concretecentre.com with
your question, and include 'Project Assistance' in the subject
line.
Regional clubs
The Concrete Centre team can provide CPD
presentations to regional clubs, for example RIBA, IStructE, ICE
and The Concrete Society.
If you would like to discuss our availability
for speaking engagements in your region, please email cpd@concretecentre.com and
include 'Regional Club' in the subject line.
Online learning
The Concrete Centre is working with the
Building Academy to improve the provision of online learning for
designers. For more information visit www.thebuildingacademy.com.
In addition, on this site we have a number of
project videos, webcasts and case studies that contain useful
guidance for the design and construction of concrete.
Alternatively, visit our Publications Library, or I’HS for technical
guidance from The Concrete Centre.
Training and CPD
The Concrete Centre offer lectures, seminars
and short courses throughout the year. Visit the Events Calendar for more information.
For larger groups, who would prefer a
presentation in their office, we can come to you. Please be aware
that demand is very high for these presentations, and we cannot
fulfil every request. A list of available topics is below.
