The Research Council (RCNCF) and Editorial Board for Nordic Concrete Research (NCR)

The purpose of the Research Council of the Nordic Concrete Federation (RCNCF) is to stimulate inter-nordic concrete research to promote a continuously positive impact on both Nordic and international utilisation of concrete.Major activities for the Research Council are:

  • Triennial Concrete Research meetings. These meetings attract 150 – 200 concrete researchers and act as fora for presenting actual Nordic concrete research projects. (Delegates from outside the Nordic countries are welcome to attend, but will have no possibility for presenting papers on their own research).
    These meetings further help young scientists to develop Nordic acquaintances on both a professional and personal level, thus stimulating continuation of the inter-Nordic research co-operation.
  • Best paper award in NCR publications shared every third year on the Nordic Concrete Research Symposium.
  • Initiating Nordic Thematic Workshops, as meetings between a limited number of active Nordic researchers on a specific theme.
  • Publish the bi-annual publication “Nordic Concrete Research” – NCR. NCR is an English language publication publishing papers from Nordic concrete researchers within concrete technology, durability and structural design.
  • Increase the availability of improve access to information on concrete related research activities and arrangements in the Nordic countries via this internet homepage.
