6. The new industry upgrade and iterative development continues to grow, green development, intelligent development, digital development, and safe development empower the entire industry
The concrete industry has already entered a trillion scale output. At present, the level of informatization and intelligence in the concrete industry is rapidly improving, and the basic informatization system has not been connected, the digital means of production and operation are insufficient, and the level of intelligence in quality control is changing. Informatization, digitization, and intelligence are the future development direction of the concrete industry, which has become the consensus of the entire industry.
7. In 2020, the concrete and cement products industry organized five national industry competitions with the highest specifications and the largest scale, and will persevere in building a competitive platform for industry technical talents.
In recent years, the China Concrete and Cement-based Products Association has continued to hold national concrete competitions in the industry to build a platform for the promotion of talent selection and technological progress in the industry, and has gained increasing influence. In 2020, "The First National UHPC Design and Customization Contest", "The Fifth National Decorative Concrete Contest", "The Eleventh National Concrete Design Contest", "The First National Ecological Concrete Innovative Design and Application Contest", "The Seventh National Concrete Design Contest" , these five major events were held as scheduled.
A number of competitions have successfully attracted the attention of students from colleges and universities in related majors and technical personnel of concrete enterprises, and have improved the concrete knowledge and skills of participating students and enterprise technical personnel, and have produced a good social impact. Everyone has realized that various competitions have become a brand competition platform for training young talents and promoting technological innovation in my country's concrete industry.
8. Standards lead industry innovation. The essence of standard innovation is technological innovation, and advanced standards are based on advanced technology. In 2020, a number of group standards for China's concrete and cement products industry will be implemented, helping the industry to develop with high quality.
Advanced technical standards are the basis for ensuring quality, regulating the market, establishing the best order, promoting technical coordination, and leading the development of the industry. The "Standardization Law of the People's Republic of China" gives a clear legal status to group standards. The CCPA group standard "Pre-tensioned prestressed high-strength concrete corrosion-resistant pipe piles" and "Sealing materials for precast concrete box culvert joints" are included in the 2020 group standard application demonstration project list of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. In 2018-2020, 5 CCPA group standards have been selected as group standard application demonstration projects. On the afternoon of December 4, 2020, the first concrete and cement product industry standardization and enterprise innovation development forum was successfully held in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. At the same time, the China Concrete and Cement Product Industry Standardization Committee was established.
9. Many innovations, such as ultra-high performance concrete, lightweight aggregate concrete, and ecological concrete, have entered the market, attracting attention.
The development and application of UHPC technology in 2020 has made remarkable progress in China: Steel-UHPC bridge decks have become a growing engineering application of UHPC in China. In 2020, UHPC paving for dozens of bridge projects has been completed; bridge components UHPC wet joint connections have more engineering applications and are used for old bridge reinforcement and widening; the number of engineering cases applying UHPC has increased significantly, thanks to the familiarity and understanding of UHPC by domestic architectural design units; maintenance and reinforcement, and new application development have also made progress. On December 4-6, 2020, during the Annual CCPA Convention, the 2020 China Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) Technology and Application Development Report was released, recording and introducing the progress made by UHPC in China in 2020 with engineering applications.
Ecological concrete has also begun to enter people's sight. Jiangxi Yuweizhou fair-water concrete plank road project, Zhongjing Exhibition Center project, ecological UHPC high-durability multifunctional marine floating structure, zhonglvshi ecological revetment, river diversion project-ecological concrete prefabricated block slope protection and ecological landscape projects have all been affectedmarket and public attention.
On December 6 2020, the Green High Performance Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Collaborative Innovation Alliance was established in Nanjing,Jiangsu Province and the 3rd National Lightweight Aggregate and Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Innovation Development Forum was also held there. The theme of the forum is "Green Manufacturing and Engineering Application". China's lightweight aggregate and lightweight aggregate concrete are expected to reach an international leading position during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period.
10. In order to promote environmental protection and resource conservation, the entire industry will continue to shoulder the mission of recycling industrial solid waste and construction waste.
The 17th meeting of the Standing Committee of the 13th National People’s Congress, held during the outbreak of the COVID-19 this year, formally passed the newly revised Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Waste (hereinafter referred to as the New Solid Waste Law), and it has been implemented from September 1, 2020.
In 2020, concrete will continue to harmlessly absorb industrial and construction wastes, and condense industrial by-products or construction wastes into qualified construction parts or products from multiple dimensions such as admixtures and machine-made sand aggregates. Statistics show that during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, the annual comprehensive utilization of my country's bulk industrial solid waste and construction waste was approximately 2 billion tons, and the comprehensive utilization rate reached more than 60%. Among them, the cement and concrete industries used more than 1 billion waste residues. More than 600 million tons of commercial concrete is used, with a total output value of nearly 500 billion yuan (77 billion USD).
