Binding Materials for Sust. Constr. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780443265662)

Binding Materials for Sustainable Construction brings together a wealth of research-led knowledge focused on innovative ways to develop and use environmentally friendly binders as alternative replacements to Portland cement in the production of concrete and mortar. The volume includes comprehensive coverage of the latest and most impactful developments and applications of concrete mixes obtained with geopolymers, bio-based materials, chemical and mineral admixtures, nanomaterials, and waste, alongside discussions on properties, testing techniques, carbon footprint minimization, the marked effect of artificial intelligence and machine learning to revolutionize the industry, without skirting considerations related to costs versus environmental viability, quality, and safety controls, and much more.
To contribute to the in-depth investigations into such a variety of technically and ecologically efficient binding materials, the editors have selected experts from educational institutions, research organizations, and manufacturing companies from across the globe in a conscious effort to add diversity to the content and points of view on the subject matter, but also to unambiguously prove the interest that both academic and industry communities worldwide show in driving forward real-world endeavors related to sustainable development.
