Concreting method that produces sustainable concrete

2014
For the last decades, concrete materials and technology have been widely developing in many ways in order to achieve an economic and high quality product. But from the other hand concrete offersa wide range of capabilities to achieve a good balance between human needs and earth's capacity which is known as the sustainability.

Sustainable concrete waste recycling

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Construction Materials, 2008
Massive volumes of construction waste will be generated by the demolition of older structures such as power stations that were built more than 30 years ago. It is essential to reuse such construction waste from a life-cycle assessment (LCA) perspective and for effective recycling of construction resources.

Sustainability of Concrete Construction

Practice Periodical on Structural Design and Construction, 2008
Sustainability is important to the well-being of our planet, continued growth of a society, and human development. Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials in the world. However, the production of portland cement, an essential constituent of concrete, leads to the release of significant amounts of CO2, a greenhouse gas GHG ...

Technology for Sustainable Concrete

Addressing the challenges posed by global warming and environmental degradation has become a priority in modern construction. Concrete, a fundamental building material, is a major consumer of energy and natural resources while also contributing significantly to CO₂ emissions, primarily due to cement production. The large-scale manufacturing of concrete
