TOPIC
CACRCS DAYS 2023 edition will focus on practical engineering applications achieved with consolidated research on corroded reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete structures. The main line of the workshop starts from the analysis of material characteristics, moves to the evaluation of the structural behaviour of corroded members, ending with the prediction of the remaining service life of corroded structures. Case studies of assessment of deteriorated structures are of great interest.
Since 2019 the Workshop has seen the participation of experts in the capacity assessment of corroded reinforced concrete structures. The workshop is open to young researchers, experts and practitioners.
In the CACRCS DAYS context, professional engineers can find a community of people able to assist in practical problem solving and in decision-making procedures for the assessment and maintenance of existing structures. Moreover, a Round Table will be scheduled to stimulate the debate on the analysis of available codes and guidelines for the evaluation of existing structures and on the gaps and future research fields identified on the basis of the contributions submitted to this workshop.

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
The CACRCS DAYS welcome all contributions related to the behaviour of reinforced concrete, fibre reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete structures damaged by corrosion, with both numerical and experimental approaches, and including some recommendations for the daily engineering evaluation of corroded structures.
You can submit abstracts and papers to the website of the CACRCS event, www.cte-eventi.com/cacrcs/.
PAPER SUBMISSION
Authors willing to present their work at the CACRCS DAYS 2023 are invited to kindly submit an abstract in accordance with the sessions of the workshop.
Extended abstracts (4 pages long) will be reviewed and will be included in the Proceedings of the Workshop if they will be accepted. The Authors of selected extended abstracts will be invited to submit a full manuscript to a Special Issue of Structural Concrete. The submission of full manuscripts will undergo the usual peer-review process of Structural Concrete.
In order to promote and facilitate the transfer of knowledge from Research to Daily Engineering Evaluation, the template for extended abstracts contains a paragraph dedicated to a description of the use of the presented results in engineering applications. The template for abstracts and extended abstracts is available on the CACRCS website
(www.cte-eventi.com/cacrcs/).
