This book presents a collection of peer-reviewed contributions presented at 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 discuss the current challenges and impacts of the built environment on sustainability.
The present volume is dedicated to the topic of "Strategies for a Resilient Built Environment," which encompasses the current and emerging approaches that lead to optimized design and maintenance of constructions and systems. It includes the development of service life models and life cycle design to maximize longevity and service levels while minimizing the environmental impact of constructions and systems. It also includes the analysis and design of larger systems, such as communities, cities, or regions, with the aim of reducing risk and increasing resilience.
The book is organized into several subtopics, including:
Resilience and Robustness of the Built Environment and Communities at Local and Global Scales: This subtopic explores the resilience and robustness of the built environment and communities at local and global scales. It examines the factors that contribute to their vulnerability and resilience, as well as the strategies and technologies that can be used to enhance their performance in the face of natural disasters, climate change, and other threats.
Risk-Based Inspection and Maintenance: This subtopic focuses on the use of risk-based inspection and maintenance strategies to optimize the performance and longevity of constructions and systems. It discusses the development of inspection and maintenance protocols, the use of data analytics and machine learning to predict and prevent failures, and the integration of risk management principles into design and construction practices.
Life Cycle Analysis and Service Models: This subtopic explores the use of life cycle analysis and service models to optimize the design and maintenance of constructions and systems. It discusses the development of models that capture the performance and lifecycle of buildings, infrastructure, and other systems, as well as the use of these models to inform decision-making and optimize maintenance strategies.
Performance-Based Design: This subtopic focuses on the use of performance-based design strategies to optimize the design and construction of buildings and infrastructure. It discusses the development of performance-based design criteria, the use of simulation and modeling tools to evaluate the performance of designs, and the integration of sustainability and resilience principles into design practices.
Improved Design Strategies by Integrating Materials and Structures: This subtopic explores the use of integrated design strategies to optimize the use of materials and structures in construction. It discusses the development of innovative materials and technologies, the use of prefabrication and modular construction techniques, and the integration of structural systems and materials to enhance performance and reduce environmental impact.
Overall, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the current and emerging strategies for a resilient built environment. It is an essential resource for researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and students interested in sustainable construction, urban planning, and infrastructure development.
