The main theme of the WTA TAG conference is rehabilitation and reconstruction of buildings. It is especially dedicated to the new building materials and technologies in civil enginnering, it's design, preparation and properties. Designed materials are determined for energy cosumption savings, environmental improvement, preservation of cultural heritage. The design is in many cases focused on the use of secondary raw materials. Main objective is properties (physico-mechanical, physico-chemical) observation and improving, then resistance observation in different conditions (sulfuric, carbonate, corrosion processes). Designed materials (composites) can be polymer based, silicate based (e.g. cement, lime); with a lot of different fillers (anorganic and organic too).

The 26th Conference on the Rehabilitation and Reconstruction of Buildings will address the issue of building rehabilitation, a field which can be topically classified into the following areas of interest:

1. Timber and Timber Protection
2. Surface Technology
   
3. Natural Stone and Artificial Stone
   
4. Masonry
5. Maintenance of Concrete Structures
6. Physico-Chemical Basis
7. Statics and Dynamics
8. Timber-framed Masonry
