CSG Chair: Kunal Kansara, National Composites Centre
The CSG provides a forum for discussion of common issues, working to find solutions to those issues as well as outward facing dissemination of best practice.
The CSG organises focused promotional activities and events and provide a direct link to government through the Composites Leadership Forum and representation thereon through the Chair of the CSG. It also works closely with the construction lead within BEIS to ensure future funding calls and strategy developments are relevant to composites and construction requirements.
The CSG publishes case studies and technical sheets that can be downloaded from the website. For information on composites applications in construction click here.
In addition the CSG has published the Bridge Design Guide through CIRIA (published 2019)
