Technical programme and structure

ICCCSC 2026 will feature Keynote presentations by invited international experts as well as presentations of all accepted abstract and papers.

All papers submitted to the conference will be subjected to full peer-review by members of the Scientific Committee and Advisory Board. The accepted full-length papers will be published in the online proceedings (Springer) and a printed book of abstracts will be provided to all conference delegates. Only original contributions will be considered for inclusion in the conference proceedings. The conference will include two parallel sessions for oral presentations, as well as poster presentations. Parallel sessions will be grouped according to thematic areas and include invited presentations, normal conference presentations and short ‘flash-presentations’ related to poster submissions.

A panel discussion with academics and industry experts will round off the technical programme of ICCCSC 2026, addressing current future challenges in the cement and concrete industry.
