SCP Meeting as ASTM Philadelphia, Monday June 10, 2024

Hi SCP! A very late announcement - for those of you who are in Philadelphia, please join us in person for our biannual meeting of the Society of Concrete Petrographers. We will meet on Monday evening (tonight!) at 6 pm after that ASTM C09.65 Task Group meeting in the same room (Room 305). This will be a very casual meeting, so feel free to bring up any interesting projects or issues you have been working on for group discussion. I will briefly go over some administrative tasks I would like us to complete as a group, we will talk about the upcoming election of new officers, and then anyone interested can head out for dinner! Looking forward to seeing everyone tonight! Daniela

SCP Meeting at ASTM Seattle - June 13 at 6 pm

Hello SCP Members! Please join us (back in person!) for the bi-annual meeting of the Society of Concrete Petrographers occurring in conjunction with the ASTM committee meeting in Seattle. We will meet on Monday evening, June 13 at 6pm immediately after the ASTM C09.65 C856 Task group meeting. The SCP meeting will take place in the same room as the task group meeting - Room 408– Washougal. Please note the meeting has been arranged for Monday evening rather than our previous more typical Tuesday evening time, and we plan to continue with Monday meetings in the future. We are planning to briefly go over some administrative tasks at the beginning of the meeting, after which we can open the meeting up to anyone with recent interesting presentations or findings related to their concrete petrography related investigations. We have one presenter lined up already, but if you would like to present, please let me or another officer know, or bring to the meeting any images or ideas that you would like to discuss with others in a casual environment! Look forward to seeing everyone there, Daniela Mauro
