Aprašymas

High-Volume Mineral Admixtures in Cementitious Binders: Towards Carbon-Neutral Construction delivers an overview of the broad applications of high-volume supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in cementitious binders, addressing the most promising ways to use them to reduce carbon emissions in the construction and building industry. The book focuses on the applications and scientific challenges of high-volume SCMs blends, elaborating on the possibilities as well as offering original perspectives on using different kinds of blended cements in the manufacturing process. Emphasis is placed on activity estimation and quality assessment, the properties of high-volume SCM-blends at both the fresh and hardened stages, self-hydraulic properties, and potential use as the sole binder as well as associated environmental impacts and carbon footprint reduction. In response to the urgent need for achieving carbon neutrality in the construction industry, this book will provide indispensable guidance for academic researchers, materials scientists and engineers, and those working in construction materials manufacturing to aid efforts to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and fight global warming.
