The 4th International Conference on the Durability of Concrete Structures was co-organized by Purdue University, USA; Queen’s University of Belfast, UK; Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan; and Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China. The conference was held at the campus of Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, from July 24–26, 2014.

The papers included in this volume outline recent developments in research and practice related to the durability of concrete structures. Contributions from fifty-seven authors have been organized into eight topical groups and include papers from the leading experts on: freeze-thaw deterioration of concrete, carbonation, corrosion of steel reinforcement, concrete transport properties, emerging binder materials, materials characterization methods, structural performance, and damage monitoring and repairs.
