Excellent- More about Building Materials for Sustainable and Ecological Environment
Green building materials are essential for sustainable construction, as cement is the most widely used building material and is not sustainable. Ecosystems provide important lessons and models for transitioning the built environment onto a sustainable path, and the book provides a guide for readers seeking knowledge on sustainable building materials with the potential to lower environmental impact. Recent advances in sustainable building materials production, such as green building materials made of industrial by-products and recycled wastes, earth materials, plant-based materials, microbial-based materials, or supplementary cementitious materials, are discussed, along with related case studies. The book offers promising solutions to achieve renewable and sustainable building materials for the future.

Green building materials are essential for sustainable construction, as they help to reduce the environmental impact of buildings. Cement, the most widely used building material, is not sustainable, contributing to 7% of global carbon dioxide emissions and consuming huge quantities of energy. To address this issue, sustainable building materials are needed. Ecosystems provide important lessons and models for transitioning the built environment onto a sustainable path, opening options for sustainable building materials in construction. The book provides a guide for readers seeking knowledge on sustainable building materials with the potential to lower environmental impact by reducing CO2 emission throughout the buildings lifecycle. Recent advances in sustainable building materials production, including green building materials made of industrial by-products and recycled wastes, earth materials, plant-based materials, microbial-based materials, or supplementary cementitious materials, have led to promising solutions for renewable and sustainable building materials for the future. The book discusses the development and applications of various sustainable building materials, including related case studies, and addresses the environmental issue with a holistic and systematic approach that creates an ecology of construction for sustainability in infrastructures.
