The widespread premature deterioration and durability issues affesting concrete structures have to some extent eroded public confidence in the use of concrete as a construction material. It is now prudent to take a critical look at the technological alternatives available for building durable and protecting concrete structures in the future. Concrete structures can be designed, built, maintained, repaired and protected to last for many generations. This noble aspiration can be achieved by engineers, utilizing state-of-the-art tools and knowledge in concrete technology.
