Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In an increased context of preservation of the environment and our resources and the birth of a decline in our carbon emissions, the management and recovery of waste, industrial by-products and by-products remain unavoidable financial and environmental challenges positioned at the heart of sustainable development policies. In this context, the themes of this review mainly fit the development of innovative materials for sustainable construction. These innovations require mastery of treatment processes, using alternative mineral-based or bio-sourced materials and mastery of sustainability and environmental impact.
The Special Issue will trait the problems due to climate change, circular economy and resource preservation, competitiveness and economic viability and user comfort in construction materials. Different themes can be presented in this Special Issue, such as the following:
- Innovative concrete for sustainable construction
- Low-carbon concrete
- Durability and sustainability of concrete
- Bio-based materials in construction
- Sustainable construction through the precast system
- Innovative treatment for sustainable reuse in construction
I/We look forward to receiving your contributions.
