This book gathers peer-reviewed contributions presented at the 3rd
RILEM Spring Convention and Conference, held at Guimaraes and
hosted by the University of Minho, Portugal, on March 9-14, 2020.
The theme of the Conference was "Ambitioning a Sustainable Future
for Built Environment: comprehensive strategies for unprecedented
challenges", which was aimed at discussing current challenges and
impacts of the built environment on sustainability. The present
volume is dedicated to the topic "Shift to a circular economy",
which is focussed on sustainability and covers the research and
recent technologies on the use and development of sustainable
materials and structural systems, as well as on recycling and
reusing. It also covers the implementation of industrial processes
leading to minimized waste, including digital fabrication and
deconstruction, as well as integrative approaches that lead to the
achievement of the concept of circular economy. Additionally, this
topic covers research on novel or existing construction materials
and systems based on local resources and regional practices. The
following subtopics are included: industrialized construction
systems minimizing waste; recycling and reuse of materials and
components; 4Ls: local constructions with local materials through
local approaches for local development; Digital Manufacturing;
design for deconstruction; smart demolition techniques; timber
structures; Life-Cycle Assessment of construction materials and
technologies; recycling of pavements and materials in roads.
