SUMMARY:CONCRETEFiX 6.5 - Green Buildings and Thermal Performance: Lessons from South Africa and the Gulf Region
DESCRIPTION:By Prof. Amjad Khabaz\, WITS University \nAs the demand for sustainable and energy-efficient buildings continues to grow\, understanding the role of concrete in improving thermal performance has become increasingly important.\nThis presentation explores the design and construction requirements of green buildings in South Africa and compares them with practices adopted in the hot climates of the Gulf region.\nThe session will focus on how conventional reinforced concrete roofs and external walls can be utilised to improve thermal insulation\, reduce energy consumption\, and create more comfortable indoor environments. Particular attention will be given to heat transfer through building envelopes\,\nthe principles of thermal performance\, and the requirements of SANS 10400-XA in relation to international best practice.\nAttendees will gain practical insight into how concrete design can contribute to more sustainable buildings while meeting modern energy-efficiency requirements. \nDATE: Thursday\, 20 August 2026\nvia Microsoft Teams @ 15:00\nAttendance Free \nECSA CPD accreditation applied for\nOnly CSSA Members qualify to receive ECSA CPD points.

SUMMARY:CONCRETEFiX 6.6 - A Century of Performance: Design\, Assessment\, & Maintenance of Concrete Structures
DESCRIPTION:By Prof Sylvia Keßler\, Helmut-Schmidt-University /  University of the Federal Armed Forces Hamburg\, Germany \nAs sustainability\, resilience\, and whole-life performance become increasingly important\, concrete structures are expected to provide reliable service for 100 years or more. Achieving this requires a shift from traditional prescriptive design towards a performance-based\, life-cycle approach.\nThis presentation explores reinforcement corrosion as the primary deterioration mechanism affecting reinforced concrete structures in aggressive  environments. It highlights advances in probabilistic service-life design\, condition assessment\, and maintenance planning\, demonstrating how these approaches improve the prediction of structural performance and support informed decision-making throughout a structure’s life.\nThe presentation will also examine how visual inspections\, electrochemical measurements\, and non-destructive testing can be integrated with service-life models to optimise maintenance strategies and prioritise repair interventions.\nUsing practical examples\, the webinar will demonstrate how performance-based durability design and evidence-based asset management can help engineers deliver concrete structures that remain durable\, resilient\, and fit for purpose for a century or more. \nDATE: Thursday\, 17 September 2026\nvia Microsoft Teams @ 15:00\nAttendance Free \nECSA CPD accreditation applied for\nOnly CSSA Members qualify to receive ECSA CPD points.
