The Concrete Society has been part of my career for as long as I can remember. From using Technical Reports to assist with developing mix designs and resolving customer issues, the society has always simply been useful to me as a concrete technologist.

At a strategic level I’d recommend membership because the built environment is becoming an increasingly complex place to work in, and collaboration across disciplines – between Architects and Engineers, contractors and supply chain – is critical to the success of projects.
