The edited book comprises invited book chapter contributions from
global experts in the field of sustainable materials and resilient
infrastructure. The book covers the most critical and emerging
topics for creating sustainable solutions for the construction
industry, promoting the technologies and monitoring methods for
resilient infrastructure. It focuses on sustainable solutions and
offers techniques and methodologies to deliver high-quality end
solutions in civil engineering. In addition, the content provides
knowledge-based information for the readers to assess, monitor,
measure, and practice sustainability for resilient infrastructure.
The contents of the volume are a blend of academic research work
and industrial case studies. It covers the use of sustainable
materials like Lime-Pozzolona Binders, biopolymers,
lignosulphonate, lightweight aggregates made from fly ash,
calcinated clay, paper ash, and limestone as
amendments/ameliorators for soil remediation, development of
neo-construction materials and composites for civil engineering
applications. Design of innovative pavements using alkali
activation and pervious concrete for sustainable infrastructure is
also discussed. The chapters also highlight the role of civil
engineers in achieving UN Sustainable Development Goals, promoting
climate change design for urban landscapes, and modelling building
energy demand. This book is framed to address the principles and
practice from the corners of geoenvironment, sustainable
construction materials, low carbon materials, energy efficiency,
and waste management. It is a valuable reference for faculty,
researchers, field experts, scientists, and practicing engineers.
