Peter Campbell Lecture - NSCS Fifth Edition Launch

Peter Campbell Lecture - NSCS Fifth Edition Launch

The National Structural Concrete Specification (NSCS) has been updated to the fifth edition with more sections on specifying sustainable concrete and how to achieve the required visual concrete finish. It has also moved online with the ability to set up a collaborative document that grows as the different parties add their information to it.

As always, the new edition is a collaboration between clients, designers, contractors and concrete producers, to ensure that best practice can be followed. Members of the working party, who have been involved with the new edition will cover some of the important changes that have been brought into the NSCS fifth edition.

The event will be of interest for anyone who specifies, builds or produces concrete frames - clients, engineers, contractors and architects.
