1. INTRODUCTION

Bond and anchorage are the terms used to denote the interaction and transfer of force between reinforcement and concrete. Bond influences behaviour of concrete structures in many ways, no matter whether the rein-forcing material is steel, an FRP composite, fibres forming a constituent of the concrete mix, or whether it is embedded or external to the concrete section. These parameters are highly complex, however, and are technically difficult to measure directly. Results of tests designed to measure the fundamentals of bond behaviour are not always easy to interpret and apply in practice. There are therefore still considerable areas where much better understanding of bond and its mech-anisms are required. The principal aim of the 4th Bond in Concrete conference is to bring together researchers and practitioners and review the advances in understanding and application of all aspects of bond in concrete achieved over the last decade, and to help identify the challenges and priorities to be addressed in the next. This follows the pattern of previous conferences held in Budapest (2002), Riga (1992) and in Paisley (1982). In Brescia in 2012 the timing is of particular significance as the Conference will closely follow publication of fib’s Model Code 2010, which contains a number of significant innovations and improvements in design guidance related to bond. A major theme in the 2012 Conference will be the intimate links and interaction between detailing practice and bond. Details about the conference will be regularly updated on the conference website: www.bondinconcrete2012.org. CONFERENCE TOPICS 1. General aspects of bond 2. Modelling 3. Assessment of degradation 4. Bond under severe loading conditions 5. Anchorages and laps 6. Transfer and development 7. Bond in new types of concrete or reinforcem. 8. Bond between fibers and concrete 9. MC2010 provisions for bond 10. Bond of FRPs or overlay materials 11. Bonded and headed anchors 12. Bond and detailing The oral presentations will be organized in three parallel sessions. The Bic2012 Conference is co-organized by University of Brescia (Italy) and Heriot-Watt University (Edin-burgh, UK).It is scientifically supported by FIB, RILEM, ACI, JCI, KCI and CTE. It will be held at Faculty of Engineering of the University of Brescia.

2. SYMPOSIUM VENUE

The symposium will be held at the University of Brescia, located in a dynamic, hardworking city with a rich heritage of history and art which spans from prehistoric times to the present. Visitors will be fascinated by the atmosphere created by its airy piazzas and picturesque lanes, its fountains and aristocratic residences, the intimacy of its cloisters and the art treasures waiting to be discovered in its churches and museums. Places to visit in the pleasant Historic Centre: Piazza della Loggia, with the sixteenth-century Palazzo (on the front page), the porticoes and the Clock Tower, along with the nearby Roman Forum. Not far, you will find the Cidneo Hill with its castle, an imposing medieval fortress with it’s Arms Museum. Brescia is located between Lake Garda (in the bottom picture)and Lake Iseo which is close to Franciacorta, where famous wines are produced. The conference will take place at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Brescia (via Branze 38) while the Ice-Breaking will be held in the cloister of the Faculty of Economics of the University of Brescia (via San Faustino 74).

SOCIAL PROGRAMME FOR ACCOMPANYING PEOPLE

Tuesday 19th June 2012 – half day tour to Verona (9.00 – 16.00) A guided walking tour can be preceded by a panoramic itinerary by coach to go up on the hills of Verona from where it is possible to admire a breathtaking panorama over the city. Then the walking sightseeing tour will in-clude the Roman Theatre, the Roman Bridge, the Roman Gates, the Della Scala Tombs, Signori Square, Erbe Square, Juliet's House and the Arena. A visit inside Verona Churches (San Zeno or Sant'Anastasia or Cathedrale) could also be included.

Wednesday 20th June 2012 – daily tour to Garda lake (9.00 – 18.00) The town Salò has two ancient monumental Venetian doors, a wonderful 15th century cathedral, late gothic style, a real jewel case of works of art: paintings and sculptures. The new lakeside is beautiful. The Venetian Palace de-signed by Sansovino reminds us of the Renaissance. Then we can see the places of the so called Republic of Salò of the late Fascist time. The visit to the beautiful and historical village of Sirmione starts in front of a fairy-tale castle dating back to the 13th century, which has remained exactly as it was. Then we enter the walled village and we visit the Castle going to the top of the Tower. A bit further on, we enter a wide beautiful archaeological site, called Grotte di Catullo (Catullus' Caves). It is what remains of a Roman Villa. The park itself and the sight are marvellous as the place is on the tip of the peninsula, and the majestic Roman ruins add great charm. Their de-scription makes us feel as if we were living there in those days. There is also a tiny new museum in which we can have a glimpse of Roman painting and Roman and Lombard way of living. The ruins have been, and are, vis-ited by many people from all over the world. The tickets of the museum will be provided by the BIC2012 organizations as well as the sanitaria insurance Europ Assistance.

HOW TO REACH BRESCIA

By plane

Verona Airport "Valerio Catullo" (VRN) offers connections with major Italian and important European cit-ies. The airport is 64 km from Brescia and is connected to Verona's train station by a shuttle service. Brescia has a small airport with low-cost flights to London's Stansted and Rome's Ciampino airports. At 45 km from Brescia you will find Milan Orio al Serio (BGY) international airport. It is Italy's first low-cost airport with many flights for Italian and European destinations. Another option would be to access the two airports in Mi-lan and continue by train to Brescia: Malpensa (MXP) is the main airport and also has intercontinental flights, while the Linate (LIN) airport serves domestic flights and some European links.

BY Train and by ferryboat

Brescia is located on the Turin-Milan-Verona-Venice line, with frequent trains both ways. Those coming from the center or the south of Italy must usually change at Milan. The station is located in the historic cen-ter. For times please consult the Trenitalia website or call the green number 89 20 21.

By Car

From Turin or Milan take highway A4 Torino Venezia up to the exit at Brescia Centro. Or alternatively, from Turin take highway A21 which allows you to avoid traffic to Milan during busy peak hours. from Ven-ice or Verona take highway A4 towards Milan up to the exit at Brescia Centro. From Bologna, Florence or Rome take highway A1 up to Modena, continue on A22 up to Verona and then get on A4 up to Brescia Cen-tro. From Genoa and Liguria take A7 up to Tortona and continue on A21 up to destination.
