Description: This book is a collection of the selected peer-reviewed papers presented at the 2024 5th Research, Invention, and Innovation Congress (RI2C), organised by the Science and Technology Research Institute (STRI), King Mongkut's University of Technology North Bangkok, during August 8-9, 2024. The Congress was aimed at highlighting and sharing new knowledge as well as contributing to innovative sustainable development. The selected articles delve into various facets of materials science and technology and present the results of research dedicated to, amongst others, sustainable materials, materials for biomedical applications, functional materials, corrosion and oxidation processes as well as engineering and mechanics of materials and technologies in civil engineering and geotechnics. The research results presented in this edition will be helpful to engineers and researchers involved in materials, biomedical engineering, and eco-friendly building materials fields of science.

Description:

This volume covers selected papers from the 3rd International Conference on Advances in Materials, Mechanical and Manufacturing (AMMM 2021), and 10th International Conference on Engineering and Innovative Materials virtual conference (ICEIM 2021). Collected articles present the last achievements in the research of structural materials properties, their processing technologies and present the results of engineering studies of actual biotechnologies.

Description:

The 4th International Conference on Bio-Based Building Materials (ICBBM 2021, 16-18 June 2021, Barcelona, Spain) has become established as a leading forum of Scientists across a broad range of disciplines related to the application of bio-based composites and natural materials in modern construction practice.

Description: This volume contains extended papers presented at the 19th International Conference on Silicate Binders (ICBM 2020), held on 3 December 2020 in Brno, Chech Republic. The conference was focused on scientific and practical achievements in the development and properties research of inorganic binders for building materials. The most important topics were related to the investigation of cementitious composites and other hydraulic and silicate binders and analysis of lime and gypsum-based binders' chemical properties and production technologies. We hope that these proceedings will be helpful to many professionals in the field of building materials.

Description: This volume contains papers presented at the International Scientific Conference "Construction and Architecture: Theory and Practice for the Innovative Development" (CATPID-2020, 26-30 September 2020, Nalchik, Russia). Collected papers raise important problems in construction and architecture: from ideas and projects to ways for their implementation and optimizing of existed engineering decisions.

Description: This book was prepared by results of the 17th International Conference Silicate Binders (ICBM 2018) that was held December 6 in Brno, Czech Republic and focused on the scientifical and practical knowledge of inorganic binders and materials. The most important topics were chemistry and technology of cement and other hydraulic and silicate binders and chemistry and technology of lime and gypsum based binders. We hope this collection will be useful for many specialists in the field of building materials.

Description: The 20th Conference on the Rehabilitation and Reconstruction of Buildings (28 - 29 November 2018, Brno, Czech Republic) addresses the issue of building rehabilitation, a field which can be topically classified into the following areas of interest:1. Flaws and failures affecting historical and contemporary buildings; 2. Advanced materials used in buildings reconstruction and 3. Fire safety of buildings. The scientific papers include the areas of remediation of wood structures, building surface treatments (plasters), repair mortars, stone restoration, rehabilitation of masonry, rehabilitation of concrete structures, physicochemical properties of building materials, statics and dynamics of buildings and rehabilitation of timber-frame structures.

Description: Brno University of Technoly, Faculty of civil engineering, Department of building materials and Centre AdMaS organized already the 14th International Conference Silicate Binders 2015 that was held with international participation under the abreviation ICBM 2015. The scientifical and practical knowledges of civil engineering industrial binders and materials were presented on this conference. The most important topics on the conference were chemistry and technology of cement and other hydraulic and silicate binders, chemistry and technology of lime production and gypsum based binders. Special attention was paid to the use and behaviour of these mentioned binders in the various kind of building materials, like Concrete, inorganic insulations and in solidified sludges.
