• research: CNRS, CNR yes• Industry: Ramboll refer to EC status

– Associations: no « downstream » Rules of confidentiality to be defined

– Cement industry– Users

Free membership on a individual, case by case basis

New Advisory Group upon ECTP invitation (no need of being ECTP member)

– CIB: interested in « a close cooperation »– Invitees to FA meetings OK, but not on a

regular basis– Fee reduction (linked to JTI membership)

postponed until next year

9 ECTP Priorities of the SRA-IAP Sub-topics


• Focus Areas (FAs)– FA UC General Meeting on January 28, 2008 at Passenger

Terminal Amsterdam, organised by COB. The meeting was dedicated to presenting several on-going initiatives and to brainstorming on the future of the FA.

– FA QoL Core Group on July 9, 2008 at FIEC, Brussels (12 participants including 1 invitee from EC). The meeting was dedicated to updates of ECTP and QoL, organisation of the FA, interaction with FP7 projects, future calls, and preparation of the next FA QoL Plenary Assembly planned to take place in Brussels on September 11-12, 2008.

– FA C&B General Assembly on August 27, 2008 at BBRI, Brussels. The objective was to inform the FA Members about the new ECTP structure and the E2B JTI, to discuss about the FA Cities and Building’s SRA, and to establish the FA organisation.

Meetings


• Advisory Groups (AGs) and Working Groups (WGs)– AG C&U organised its 8th meeting on March 18, 2008 at
