| Meeting Description | |
| Advances in Cement-based Materials takes place in the Civil Engineering Building and the Heine Pharmacy Building on campus. Download the Purdue University map for conference and parking details or visit the Schedule. Advances in Cement-based Materials, hosted at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN, will cover topics of interest to the Cements Division and the Center for Advanced Cement-Based Materials. By co-locating with ACBM, the Cements Division will build upon core audience, offer strong student activities for training and to bring in new members. The advantages of this partnership will lead to growth of Cement Division membership and new opportunities for training, mentoring, and collaboration. | |
