Full Description
Renewable and Cost-Effective Materials and Structural Systems for Built Environment and Engineering Sciences offers a comprehensive and forward‑looking examination of next‑generation binder systems designed to meet the urgent sustainability demands of modern construction. As traditional binders such as Portland cement, construction lime, and gypsum face increasing scrutiny for their environmental impact, this volume provides a timely and essential resource. Through detailed scientific analysis and practical engineering insight, the book explores renewable, composite, and cost‑efficient alternatives that reduce ecological harm while maintaining structural performance. Presented as a full-length scholarly reference, the book serves as both a theoretical foundation and a practical guide for advancing sustainable material innovation.
This volume delivers a holistic framework for understanding and developing environmentally responsible binder systems. Readers will find in‑depth coverage of material synthesis, inner‑structural characterization, physical and mechanical performance evaluation and durability assessment. The book highlights the role of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), industrial by‑products, fibers, water reducers, and chemical admixtures in enhancing flexibility, strength, and resilience. It distinguishes itself by offering innovative methodologies, step‑by‑step procedures, and practical solutions that bridge scientific research with real‑world engineering applications. By presenting cutting‑edge approaches to eco‑friendly binder development, the book equips readers with the knowledge needed to design materials that reduce carbon emissions, conserve resources, and support long‑term sustainability in the built environment.
This book is an essential resource for civil, architectural, environmental, and materials engineers; construction scientists; sustainability specialists; and researchers working in binder technology and composite materials. It is equally valuable for graduate students seeking a comprehensive introduction to renewable binder systems, as well as industry professionals, policymakers, and practitioners committed to implementing sustainable construction practices. Whether used as a reference, a teaching resource, or a guide for applied research, the volume serves a wide audience dedicated to shaping a more resilient and environmentally responsible built environment.
