Invitation
Thematic Network CONREPNET and EU-Project REHABCON
invite you to a Collaborative Workshop at MECC, Maastricht NL,
on 15th of October 2004.
The both projects are EC funded under the FP5 Programme
"Competitive and Sustainable Growth". REHABCON was launched in
2001 and will conclude this year. CONREPNET is a four years
programme, which started in September 2002.
The scope of the Workshop will encompass different aspects of
maintenance and rehabilitation of concrete structures:
- REHABCON project has focussed on development of advanced techniques for decision making in the management and repair of reinforced concrete structures and the morning session will present results of this work.
- TN CONREPNET has started with studies of past and current performance and practises concerning rehabilitation of reinforced concrete structures. These are used as baseline for outlining guidelines for future concepts of performance based rehabilitation of reinforced concrete structures. Current results of these studies will be presented during the afternoon session.
Speakers represent European experts in maintenance and rehabilitation works.
The Workshop is arranged in association with B4E Conference providing participants an opportunity to combine attendance in both events on a special price.
We are looking forward to see you in Maastricht.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Language
The official language of the Workshop is English.
Maastricht
Maastricht's vibrant history and its situation at a
crossroads of European cultures, languages and
trade routes lend it a unique charm and international
flavour. Dutch visitors to this most ancient, most
European and most southerly city of the Netherlands
find Maastricht so 'un-Dutch' that they feel as if they
are abroad, while foreign visitors tend to feel perfectly
at home in its international atmosphere.
Accommodation
MECC Hotel Service is a free service, which arranges
suitable overnight accommodation at reduced rates
for everyone coming to MECC Maastricht. For further
