About the Symposium
We are delighted to announce the PhD Symposium on Technologies for Low-Carbon & Lean Construction (TLC2), exclusively for senior PhD students and recent graduates, to be held (in-person) on Sunday, 28th January 2024. The symposium will provide a premium forum for young researchers to present advances and research results in the construction materials and management sector, interact with peers and experts, and network during the event.
The best speaker will receive the Surendra P. Shah Award on Technologies for Low-Carbon and Lean Construction 2024 and will be given a slot at the “The 3ʳᵈ International Workshop on Technologies for Low-Carbon and Lean Constructions 2024” to be held at IIT Madras, Chennai, during 28th-31st January 2024.
Travel grant of up to EUR 2000 (two thousand) could be available to selected speakers, preferably to speakers outside India (partial support towards the actual travel expenses).

About the honoree
Prof. Shah has been actively involved in concrete technology research for several decades. His research addresses a variety of topics in concrete materials science and engineering, including high-strength concrete, shrinkage measurement, nondestructive test methods to monitor properties ranging from setting time to the modulus of elasticity, and rheology of fresh concrete, self-consolidating concrete, and nanotechnology applications. He has made pioneering and groundbreaking contributions to understanding fiber-reinforced concrete, damage, and fracture and developing innovative experimental techniques. He served as a Professor of Civil Engineering, at Northwestern University and founded NSF-funded Center for Advanced Cement Based Materials (ACBM) including the academic partner universities of Illinois, Michigan, Purdue, and NIST.
Currently, he is the Director of the Center of Advanced Construction Materials, Civil engineering department at the University of Texas at Arlington.
