Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript for this Special Issue, in the form of an original research article or review paper.
With the rapid development of society and economy, the energy consumption of building has increased sharply. Under the theme of energy conservation and environmental protection, reducing building energy consumption is imminent. Traditional building materials such as wood, steel, concrete, etc. have inherent characteristics and limitations in building applications, such as wood being prone to decay, steel being prone to rusting, and concrete being heavy, as well as difficulties in meeting the usage requirements under special environmental conditions such as erosion. This has prompted people to constantly seek new materials with comprehensive excellent performance to replace them. Compared to traditional building materials, composite building materials have good fatigue resistance, high specific strength and stiffness, good seismic performance, excellent durability, and other advantages, and have a wider range of application scenarios than traditional materials.
Therefore, this Special Issue will provide an opportunity for peers in the related fields to publish recent findings with the analysis and assessment of composite construction materials performance.
