Speakers
Er. KP Abraham of Petroleum Conservation Research Association
History of Concrete
Er. KP Abraham, Ex. Chief Engineer, CPWD gave the information about "History of Concrete”. In his lecture he told that a few decades back, 1kg of cement manufacturing released 1 kg of carbon dioxide in atmosphere. With technological developments, it has been brought down to 0.7 kg/kg of cement. The emission level is expected to be around 0.5 kg/kg of cement. The reduction of cement content is essential for sustainability. We can use Mineral or Chemical admixture and using this will enhance the performance parameters of concrete.
