The edited book is a comprehensive compilation of invited book chapter contributions from esteemed global experts in the field of sustainable materials and resilient infrastructure. Spanning a wide range of critical and emerging topics, this invaluable resource delves into the development of sustainable solutions for the construction industry, emphasizing the promotion of technologies and monitoring methods for resilient infrastructure. With a strong focus on sustainable practices, the book offers a wealth of techniques and methodologies to deliver high-quality end solutions in civil engineering. Furthermore, the content provides readers with a comprehensive foundation of knowledge to assess, monitor, measure, and practice sustainability for resilient infrastructure.
The contents of this volume are a harmonious blend of academic research work and industrial case studies, offering a deep insight into the use of sustainable materials such as Lime-Pozzolona Binders, biopolymers, lignosulphonate, lightweight aggregates derived from fly ash, calcinated clay, paper ash, and limestone. These materials serve as amendments or ameliorators for soil remediation, the development of innovative neo-construction materials, and the creation of composites for civil engineering applications. The chapters also shed light on the design of innovative pavements using alkali activation and pervious concrete, contributing to the sustainability of infrastructure.
In addition to these technical aspects, the chapters emphasize the crucial role of civil engineers in achieving United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, promoting climate change design for urban landscapes, and modeling building energy demand. This book is meticulously framed to encompass principles and practices from the realms of geoenvironment, sustainable construction materials, low-carbon materials, energy efficiency, and waste management. It serves as a valuable reference for faculty, researchers, field experts, scientists, and practicing engineers, providing a comprehensive and indispensable resource for advancing the field of sustainable materials and resilient infrastructure.
