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: Construction is a major industry in all countries and great deal of natural resources are consumed in buildings. Buildings have a significant and continuously increasing impact on the environment since they are responsible for a large portion of carbon emissions and use a considerable number of resources. This special volume on ‘Materials and Construction Technologies for Sustainable Development’ contains Eleven chapters which address a wide range of issues pertaining to building materials with reference to energy efficiency. The volume will be of special interest to environmentally conscious engineers, producers of building materials, architects, building professional and it may also be useful to scientists and researchers.
