About
Dirk Schlicke is a leading figure in advancing interdisciplinary approaches for cement-based materials and structural concrete. His research bridges the gap between materials science and structural engineering, focusing on the development of more durable, sustainable, and high-performance concrete structures. Schlicke’s major contributions include pioneering work on the synergistic integration of material properties with structural design, particularly through his organization and editorial leadership of the International RILEM/COST conference SynerCrete’18. This landmark event, held in Funchal, Madeira Island, culminated in a highly influential special issue of the Journal of Advanced Concrete Technology (2019), which he edited. The collection showcases seven outstanding papers that exemplify his vision for cross-disciplinary collaboration, addressing critical challenges from early-age cracking to long-term durability. While his most-cited work has garnered significant attention within the concrete research community, his true impact lies in fostering a collaborative framework that unites researchers and practitioners. By championing this integrated perspective, Schlicke has helped shape a new generation of concrete technologies that are both scientifically rigorous and practically viable, making him a pivotal voice in modern structural concrete innovation.
