Sommario/riassunto

This book provides an extensive review of research data and encourages the uptake of recycled secondary materials (RSM) by the construction industry, through discussions of the global use of virgin aggregates and CO2 polluter Portland cement; reduction of usage through the appropriate use of waste materials, thereby conserving natural resources; reduction of energy and CO2 emissions; and change through engineering ingenuity and new concepts in design.
