The focus of this special collection was set on materials properties and testing techniques, it covers most aspects of testing techniques on mechanical, chemical, physical properties and microstructures of ceramics, glass and concrete. It is hoped the collection will promoted the research and development in the field of testing and evaluation of inorganic materials.
The collection covers a broad spectrum of topics related to civil infrastructure engineering, which range from structural engineering, bridge engineering, geotechnical engineering, wind engineering, tunnels, subways and underground facilities, seismic engineering and disaster prevention and mitigation and protection engineering. The volume provided an excellent opportunity to discuss the challenges we are facing with our ever ageing civil infrastructure.

The work offers a timely survey of this important topic.
The 13th NOCMAT Conference continued to provide a forum where researchers, governmental and non-governmental agencies could introduce their research results concerning innovations in the field of low-cost energy-saving materials which are renewable and locally available: such as bamboo, soil fibers and cement alternatives. Also covered were technologies which make use of such non-conventional materials as natural fibers and agricultural and industrial residues in a more cost-effective, durable, environment-friendly, energy-efficient and sustainable manner.
