2000 Canmet/ACI Conference on Durability of Concrete

In 2000, CANMET, in association with ACI, the Japan Concrete Institute, and several other organizations in Spain and Canada, sponsored a fifth international conference held on June 4-9, 2000, in Barcelona, Spain. More than 120 papers from 35 countries were received and peer reviewed in accordance with the policies of the American Concrete Institute; 73 were accepted for publication. The accepted papers deal with all aspects of concrete durability.

In addition, several sessions dealing with sulfate attack, superplasticizers and supplementary cementing materials, and near surface testing for the durability of concrete were organized.

In addition to the papers that have been published in the refereed proceedings, more than 30 papers were presented at the conference.
