About

Sustainable, durable, and less CO2 emitting materials are increasingly encouraged in the construction sector. However, there are different strategies for building materials and structures to address the challenges as mentioned earlier. Also, multi-scale fiber reinforced concrete has emerged recently to improve the durability of structures with multi-level characteristics. Multi-scale fiber reinforced concrete is a kind of concrete that can restrict crack development by fiber bridging at a multi-level. For example, high-performance engineered cementitious composites can significantly improve the ductility and durability of respective structures. Therefore, it is possible to integrate such materials in civil engineering applications to enhance the sustainability of the respective structure and improve its durability.

In this regard, this Research Topic aims to be focused on developing durable and sustainable building materials and structures. We welcome your contributions to this Research Topic, including Original Research, Review, Mini Review, and Perspective articles.

The potential research fields are as follows (but not limited to):
(1) Fiber reinforced recycled aggregate composites for concrete structure
(2) Multi-scale fiber-reinforced concrete for structural applications
(3) Natural fiber reinforced composites
(4) Sustainable fiber reinforced cementitious composites with low-clinker content
(5) Durability of building materials and structures
(6) Sustainable fiber reinforced cementitious composites as a repair material
