Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
There are many studies aimed at developing advanced and sustainable materials for the construction industry. However, due to the vast importance of preserving the environment and scarce resources, these efforts should be continued to further develop the new advanced construction materials with positive impacts on sustainability. Therefore, better safety, lower cost, lower energy and further reduction on greenhouse gas emissions could be expected in the future of the construction industry.
The aim of this Special Issue is to publish outstanding papers presenting the new findings on the advanced and sustainable construction materials, their performances and applications. The topic of this Special Issue covers research areas including, but not limited to, advanced concrete materials, fibre composites, engineered timber materials, lightweight construction materials, masonry materials, low thermal conductive construction materials, sustainable construction, energy and building.
