The Concrete Centre will be hosting a webinar on Wednesday 2nd October 2024 (12:00pm - 1:05pm)
Webinar info:
Part 1: Greater and alternative uses of limestone
Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are materials that may be used as part of the binder in concrete. SCMs can be lower in embodied carbon than Portland cement and are consequently an important part of the route towards net zero concrete.
The availability, use and standards related to SCMs is evolving. This webinar is the first of a two-part event considering these changes, and it focuses on greater and alternative uses of limestone which have recently been included in the revised BS 8500 standard.
Programme:
12:00 The changing landscape of supplementary cementitious materials – and overview - Noushin Khosravi, Head of Sustainability, UK Concrete
12:10 BS 8500 and limestone - Gareth Wake, Director, MPA Ready-Mixed Concrete
12:25 Ternery blends of GGBS//fly ash with limestone - Cassandre Legalliard, Product Manager, London Concrete
12:40 Limestone mix optimisation - Erisa Myrtja, R&D Project Manager, ECOCEM
12:55 Q&A/panel discussion
13:05 End

Part 2: Expanding the range: calcined clays, recycled fines and stock-piled fly ash
Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are materials that may be used as part of the binder in concrete. SCMs can be lower in embodied carbon than Portland cement and are consequently an important part of the route towards net zero concrete.
The availability, use and standards related to SCMs is evolving. This webinar is the second of a two-part event considering these changes, and it focuses on this expansion of the range of SCMs, including calcined clays, recycled fines and stock-piled fly ash.
Programme:
