Retaining structures in use at their highest value for as long as possible is recognised as good practice to support a more circular economy practice. This event brought together members of the design teams for recent projects in which concrete structures have been successfully and innovatively reused. They explain their approach, the benefits of optimising the durability and long life potential of concrete, and how they overcame any challenges along the way.
