For this new edition of EXPERIMENTAL CONCRETE BE, architects and concrete experts explored innovative applications of precast concrete. This year, the focus was on the exceptional durability of concrete and how the functionality and aesthetics of concrete elements evolve over time. The results of this research will be presented during ARCHITECT@WORK Kortrijk on May 15 and 16, 2025.
The exhibited prototypes are not finished products but explore new ideas and inspire discussion. Among the highlights: Growth Concrete, Scratch Concrete, Moment-Resistant Knot, Eroding Concrete, Suminagashi.
