July6th International Conference on Bridge Maintenance, Safety and Management (IABMAS 2012)8th – 12th July 2012 Stresa, Lake Maggiore, ItalyThe aim of IABMAS 2012 is to bring together all the very best work that has been done in the field of bridge maintenance, safety, management and related topics to stimulate and promote research into this field, and to bridge the gap between theory and practice.Website: http://www.iabmas2012.org8th International Conference: Concrete in the Low Carbon Era9th – 11the July 2012Dundee, ScotlandThe University of Dundee and, specifically, the Concrete Technology Unit has played a dominant role in the exchange of information and professional interaction between all involved in concrete whatever the disciplines. The themes of the 8th International Conference: Concrete in the Low Carbon Era will address causes and solutions with regard to the manufacture, use, design, longevity and sustainability of concrete and other cementitious products. In the near future, there would seem to be little doubt that carbon-based economies and infrastructure-driven activities will have to increasingly address these issues. This conference promises to be equally relevant and informative and an opportunity to consolidate progress and to discuss options and experience.Website: http://www.ctucongress.co.uk/#welcomeInternational Symposium on Life Cycle Assessment and Construction: Civil Engineering and Construction 10th – 12 July 2012 Nantes, FranceThis symposium will aim at grouping disparate research communities to create a forum for the exchange of recent developments and research results amongst researchers. It also aims at providing an insight into societal demands in the civil engineering and buildings sectors.
