7. Conclusion
The panel of sustainability indicators selected, together with the test methods required to determine these indicators in the laboratory under well-defined conditions, form the basic element of the "toolbox" for engineers and designers.
The article will illustrate the different levels of use of these indicators, for the evaluation (qualitative or quantitative) and prediction of the durability of (reinforced) concrete structures.
The author would like to thank the members of the working group of the Association Française de Génie Civil (AFGC): "Conception des bétons en vue d'une durée de vie donnée des ouvrages – Indicateurs de durabilité", and all those who contributed to this work. The author also thanks the AFGC for providing the opportunity for such forums.
