Due to the demand for new urban construction, its repair, and its
maintenance, the concrete and construction enterprises continue to
grow, as do their use of finite natural resources. The industry is
now under pressure to seek ways to minimize the use of rapidly
depleting natural resources. Effective utilization of various waste
materials, often found in abundance, may be the key as they not
only ward off deleterious environmental hazards, but they have also
been known to produce wealth by adding value through ecology.
Recycled Waste Materials in Concrete Construction: Emerging
Research and Opportunities is a detailed scholarly resource that
discusses different types of industrial, agricultural, and natural
wastes that are either currently in use in the concrete industry or
demonstrate potential for future use and how they can be used as
additives or replacements for cement and other construction
materials. Highlighting topics such as engineering properties,
material durability, and raw materials, this books targets
engineers, construction professionals, contractors, consulting
firms, government officials, cement and waste material industries,
policymakers, academicians, and researchers.
