This comprehensive book presents a collection of peer-reviewed contributions from the 3rd RILEM Spring Convention and Conference, held at Guimarães, Portugal, from March 9 to 14, 2020. The theme of the conference, "Ambitioning a Sustainable Future for Built Environment: Comprehensive Strategies for Unprecedented Challenges," aimed to explore the current challenges and impacts of the built environment on sustainability.

The present volume is dedicated to the topic of "Service Life Extension of Existing Structures," covering the latest scientific and technological advancements in understanding the evolution and degradation of construction materials and structural systems. Analytical, numerical, and experimental approaches are employed to characterize, model, and predict the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of construction materials and structural systems. Multiphysics models are also considered, along with other strategies that contribute to accurate characterization and prediction of the service life and evolution of existing and novel construction materials under normal or extreme environmental exposure or loading conditions.

New strategies to promote smart repairing or material property recovery, as well as service life extension, are explored. The book includes several subtopics, such as service life models and multiphysics approaches, smart structures, innovative monitoring and intervention strategies, management and optimized maintenance strategies, and integrated rehabilitation and strengthening approaches.

The contributions in this book provide valuable insights into the latest research and developments in the field of service life extension of existing structures, highlighting the importance of sustainable practices and innovative solutions for the built environment. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in advancing the sustainability and resilience of the built environment.
