This CPD module, sponsored by Steel for Life, examines a number of steel’s credentials specifically on its ability to be reused, recycled and multi-cycled, its structural efficiency as a construction material, and its alignment and application to circular economy principles.
Join us for this launch event to uncover the role of scrap in steel decarbonisation, global recycling trends, and strategies for a more sustainable construction industry.
Three industry experts explored the potential of basalt fibre as an alternative reinforcement material for concrete. They examined its engineering properties, manufacturing processes, and economics, as well as the myriad applications of Basalt Fibre Reinforced Polymer (BFRP) in sustainable construction.
