This collection of 501 peer-reviewed papers, presented as a three-volume set, covers the latest advances in micromechanical characterization, mechanical properties, durability analysis, failure mechanisms and non-destructive evaluation of building materials. Taken together with its coverage of applications, this collection will be welcomed by anyone interested in these subjects. Review from Book News Inc.: Three thick volumes present papers from the International Conference on Structures and Building Materials (ICSBM 2011), held in January 2011, in Guangzhou, China, organized primarily by the faculty of civil and transportation engineering, Guangdong University of Technology, with participation from four other Chinese universities. Contributors are from many countries. Broadly, the subjects include advancements and applications of micromechanical characterization, mechanical properties, durability analysis, failure mechanisms, and nondestructive evaluation of building materials. Arrangement of papers is in sections on traditional building materials, advanced building materials, and other related topics. A small sample of specific topics: fracture energy analysis of eco-concretes in Japan, theoretical assessment of FRP tendon wedge anchorage system, and infrared spectrum study of autoclaved systems with solid wastes. A keyword index is included in the third volume.

This proceedings volume chronicles the papers presented at the 35th CIB W78 2018 Conference: IT in Design, Construction, and Management, held in Chicago, IL, USA, in October 2018. The theme of the conference focused on fostering, encouraging, and promoting research and development in the application of integrated information technology (IT) throughout the life-cycle of the design, construction, and occupancy of buildings and related facilities. The CIB – International Council for Research and Innovation in Building Construction – was established in 1953 as an association whose objectives were to stimulate and facilitate international cooperation and information exchange between governmental research institutes in the building and construction sector, with an emphasis on those institutes engaged in technical fields of research. The conference brought together more than 200 scholars from 40 countries, who presented the innovative concepts and methods featured in this collection of papers.

This book gathers the peer-reviewed contributions presented at two parallel, closely interconnected events on advanced construction materials and processes, namely the 2nd International RILEM Conference on Rheology and Processing of Construction Materials (RheoCon2) and the 9th International RILEM Symposium on Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC9), held in Dresden, Germany on 8-11 September 2019. The papers discuss various aspects of research on the development, testing, and applications of cement-based and other building materials together with their specific rheological properties. Furthermore, the papers cover the latest findings in the fast-growing field of self-compacting concrete, addressing topics including components’ properties and characterization; chemical admixtures, effect of binders (incl. geopolymers, calcined clay, etc.) and mixture design; laboratory and in-situ rheological testing; constitutive models and flow modelling; numerical simulations; mixing, processing and casting processes; and additive manufacturing / 3D-printing. Also presenting case studies, the book is of interest to researchers, graduate students, and industry specialists, such as material suppliers, consultants and construction experts.
