The North West Branch held an online event on 11th October 2023 covering reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) – a material currently very much in the news. The talk was led by Chris Atkins of Mott MacDonald and approximately 50 people logged in and participated with a number of questions.

Chris Atkins is Technical Principal at Mott MacDonald where he has worked for over twenty years. Chris is part of a team dealing with all aspects of materials and corrosion work for clients in a range of sectors. He is a Chartered Engineer, a Fellow of the Institution of Civil Engineers, a Fellow of the Institute of Corrosion and an ISO 15257 Level 4 cathodic protection specialist.

The Branch also held an event at the University of Manchester School of Materials on 29 November focusing on ICorr career development and building a student / Young ICorr chapter.
