At the beginning of March Astrakhan State Technical University (ASTU) held a regional scientific and practical seminar "Construction spring - 2021". Its participants were representatives of science, education and construction business.


The experts in the sphere of construction discussed the key questions of branch development and shared the experience of implementation of different innovative technologies and solutions.

The Nanotechnological Center of Composites represented by Anna Nikolaevna Kostenko presented its developments for the construction industry and housing and communal services including the composite railing and drainage systems, composite profiles, mobile road covers and protective cases for gas pipelines. The report about the technology of reinforcement of concrete constructions by CBA CarbonWrap traditionally aroused the greatest interest. This technology is used actively not only in Russia but all over the world for repair and reinforcement of building constructions to eliminate the results of concrete destruction and corrosion of reinforcement as a result of long-term influence of natural factors and aggressive environment.

Companies participating in the seminar have been actively cooperating with the Institute of Urban Planning ASTU for many years.
Partnership with companies gives students the opportunity to participate in promising projects, to work on innovative technologies and ideas. Leading construction products were demonstrated at the exhibition during the seminar. Such meetings with construction industry experts are a unique opportunity for students to gain experience, delve deeper into their future profession, study new materials and technical solutions.
