GUIDE TO CONCRETE REPAIR AND PROTECTION TECHNICAL TRAINING DAY
With the success so far of our current Technical Training Course we have added some more to the 2013
calendar with more to come.
Our most recent courses were held in Wollongong, Perth and
Melbourne due to demand of more courses for WA and VIC we will
be travelling back there later year. Next on our list is the Gold Coast,
QLD and both still have places available, any interested people
should email the Association on
details or check the website for all course and seminar dates.
Upcoming course dates are:
QLD- 19 July 2013
VIC- 6 September 2013
WA- 8 November 2013
As these courses are held in groups of 20 people only and we will repeat in areas where these have deemed
popular like Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.
If you would like to organize an in-house course feel free to call the ACRA office for more details

One of our Technical Training Course speaker's Peter Johnsson recently attended the Department of
Housing and held a ½ day tailored course for 25 inspectors all of which gave very positive feedback on the
course and were quoted "we found the course to be invaluable and Peter was able to answer every technical
question that was thrown at him. We recommend this course to anyone who does concrete repair work".
This course is the best independent information available to date for engineers starting out in the specialist area
of concrete repair, contractors' supervisors and foremen, as well as those who just want some basic but detailed
knowledge.
Asset managers, port and road authorities, councils and ACRA members should consider training their key staff
by sending them to a session run around the country.
A practical understanding of how repairs should be undertaken is discussed in the last two topics of the day
"Repair Specification", which covers materials and workmanship; and "How to Do a Repair Properly" which
presents a step-by-step guide to undertaking a repair and some common problems with workmanship.
The registration fee is $495 (GST inclusive) for members of ACRA and $595 (GST
inclusive) for non-members.
Everyone who attends receives a copy of the ACRA Guide to Concrete Repair and
Protection as well as course notes. Email or phone today for more information and to
register
ACRA in conjunction with ACA are in the early stages of developing a 2 day Technical
Course which all who have attended the current 1 day course have asked for.
We hope to have this ready by the end of the year.
