Hands-On Research at the SMAR 2026 Pre-Conference Tour!

In the lead-up to the 8th International Conference on Smart Monitoring, Assessment, and Rehabilitation of Civil Structures, the ITM at TU Dresden supported the organization of the Pre-Conference Tour.

During their tour through Dresden and the surrounding region, participants gained exclusive insights into research infrastructures and large-scale testing procedures. In addition to the Institute of Building Materials at TU Dresden and the Leibniz Institute for Polymer Research Dresden e. V., the ITM also opened its doors and presented current research from the fields of textile machinery and high-performance textile materials engineering.

SMAR 2026 brings together international researchers, engineers, companies, and infrastructure operators to discuss the latest developments in monitoring, structural modeling, and innovative materials for building rehabilitation.

We would like to thank everyone involved for the successful exchange!
