Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Calcined Clays for Sustainable Concrete (RILEM Bookseries, 16) 1st ed. 2018 Edition
by Fernando Martirena (Editor), Aurélie Favier (Editor), Karen Scrivener (Editor)
This
volume focuses on research and practical issues linked to Calcined
Clays for Sustainable Concrete. The main topics are geology of clays,
hydration and performance of blended system with calcined clays, alkali
activated binders, applications in concrete and mortar, durability of
concrete under various aggressive conditions, and economic and
environmental impacts of the use of calcined clays in cement based
materials.
This book compiles the different contributions of the 2nd International Conference on Calcined Clays for Sustainable Concrete, which took place in La Habana, December 5th-7th, 2017.The papers update the latest research in their field, carried out since the last conference in 2015.
Overall
it gives a broad view of research on calcined clays and their
application in the field of construction, which will stimulate further
research into calcined clays for sustainable concrete.
