The International Conference STRAIN-HARDENING CEMENT-BASED COMPOSITES (SHCC 4) will take place in Dresden, 18-20 September 2017. 

As a follow-up to its three successful international events in Stellenbosch, Rio de Janeiro and Dordrecht the conference focuses on the latest developments of new materials that exhibit pseudo-ductile behavior resulting from the formation of multiple, fine cracks when subject to tensile loading. The use of such types of fibre-reinforced concrete could revolutionise the planning, development, dimensioning, structural and architectural design, construction of new and strengthening and repair of existing buildings and structures in many areas of application.
