The BEFIB 2024 is the eleventh edition in a series of international symposia which are organized every four years and which became the key conference on Fiber Reinforced Concrete (FRC). The aim of BEFIB 2024 is to present and discuss recent scientific and technological developments in the field of FRC, including strain-hardening cementitious composites (SHCC), textile reinforced concrete (TRC) and other novel materials. The conference is intended for a broad international audience, ranging from researchers from a variety of scientific disciplines to professionals in structural and material engineering and industry specialists. It includes structural and construction engineers, builders and building consultants, construction industry persons, researchers, students, product manufacturers, material suppliers, project managers and contract administrators, asset managers, government authorities of infrastructure development and others.
