#2 in the Docomomo International Book Series is published as a result of the European Union co-funded Erasmus+ project CONCRETO Academy!
The book is authored by Andrea Canziani (ISC/E+T) and Wido Quist (SG), with the support of Camilla Repetti, Elisabetta Toscano and Svenja-Christin Voß. It presents a comprehensive baseline of the state-of-the-art approaches and practices in the field of historic concrete conservation to identify the knowledge gaps and mismatches existing in current practice. The CONCRETO Code Book aims to serve as a resource for professionals, policymakers, and educational institutions, providing a deeper understanding of the current state of the field while offering practical recommendations for future development.
The publication is the result of both desk research and a questionnaire spread by our project partners in Spain, Italy and Türkiye.
