Description:

2016 International Conference on Composite Materials and Material Engineering took place in Bangkok, Thailand during March 9-11, 2016.

ICCMME 2016 aims to bring together researchers, scientists, developers, and engineers from around the world in both industry and academia for sharing state-of-art research results, for exploring new areas of research and development, and to discuss emerging issues in the fields of composite materials and material engineering, It provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new thoughts and application experiences, to establish business or research relations and to find global partners for possible future collaboration, and also it helps expanding the delegates’ knowledge and insight into the significant challenges currently being addressed in the related fields.

Description: This special topical volume on ‘Materials for Sustainable Built Environment’ is aimed to cover the recent advancements in the area of building materials with reference to energy efficiency and environmental sustainability in buildings. There are many opportunities available for materials advances to reduce the energy use and atmospheric emissions associated with the building and construction sector. The use of energy efficient building materials and products promotes conservation of dwindling nonrenewable resources. In modern construction, the key challenge is to choose materials that can reduce burdens to the environment. The volume will be of special interest to environmentally-minded producers and suppliers of building materials and to engineers, and building professionals, and also be useful to researchers and scientists.

Description: This book aims to collect the up-to-date reports of functional materials research achievements. The book would appeal to researchers who work on functional materials study. The readers of this book could find wide range of topics in functional materials field.

Description: The main objective of this book is to present the modern methods and techniques of experimental and computational investigations in area of construction.

Description: This special topical volume on is aimed to cover the recent advancements and trends in the area of building materials with reference to energy efficiency and sustainable development. The volume will be of special interest to environmentally-minded producers of building materials and to engineers, architects and building professionals, but it may also be of use to readers and researchers who are interested in building construction but who lack specialist technical knowledge.

Description: Building design is complex multidisciplinary task in which architects, engineers, scientists, building industry, developers and manufactures are involved. It is desirable to create healthy indoor environment by the use of both: traditional and new advanced building materials, which are free of harmful substances and allow us to design energy‐efficient buildings. The aim is to create the framework for better implementation of ecological principles into existing technical specifications, legislation and building practice.

Description:

Development of the material-technological base in the field of architecture and  construction is progressing faster than in the previous periods. Based on the potential of new materials and technologies, it is possible to create advanced architecture and engineering building systems. Integration of advanced materials, technologies and construction systems creates a high-quality architectural construction with optimum performance in the presence as well as in the future. Nevertheless, improper application of high quality materials in the wrong environment may cause a defect.
