Thus, the requirement to execute the design, construction and maintenance of civil engineering structures and infrastructures as sustainably as possible are big challenges currently faced by civil and geotechnical engineers. This book, compiling the papers published during the 2020–2021 biennium in the Topical Collection, “Sustainability in Geotechnics: The Use of Environmentally Friendly Materials”, is intended help tackle those challenges. Several topics are covered by the 23 papers published herein, including: sustainable ground improvement techniques; replacement of raw materials such as soils and aggregates by recycled materials; soil reinforcement with alternative materials; sustainable solutions using geosynthetics; low-carbon solutions for stabilization of contaminated soils; and bioengineering techniques to prevent soil erosion. The Guest Editor expects that this book can be very useful towards the achievement of more environmentally friendly solutions, in particular in the field of geotechnical engineering.Sustainability in GeotechnicsTechnology: general issuesbicsscHistory of engineering & technologybicssclow carbon materialsheavy metal immobilizationsustainable remediationenvironmentally friendly materialssustainability in geotechnicsrecycled construction and demolition materialsgeogridspullout behaviourpullout test parameterscementlimecopper slagstrengthdurabilitymicrostructureeCO2embodied energysoda residuefly ashfield testlaboratory testmechanical propertygypsumlinerspavementsPROMETHEEheavy metalssoilenzyme solutionsdesorptionextractantbioengineering techniquesvegetative cover indexslope’s superficial erosionphytosanitary aspectsclimatological conditionsgeosyntheticsgeotextile tubessludgedewateringtotal solidspolymer dosingresponse surfacegeomembraneHDPEthermal analysissewageleachateincinerator bottom ashgeotextilesmechanical damagesustainable engineeringwaste valorizationsoil improvementpolypropylene stripsgeotechnical propertiessustainable reuse of plastic wasterecycled pet stripslateritic soilcompositeuniaxial testsshear strengthsmall-strain stiffnessground improvementground remediationlocal straintriaxial testgeopolymersoil stabilizationexpansive soilssustainability benefitssustainable ground improvementoil-contaminated soilsgeotextile–polynorbornene linerpollutant adsorptiondiffusionpermeability alterationmicrobial induced carbonate precipitationlife cycle assessmentenergy consumptioncarbon emissionsfine-grained soiltire-derived aggregateoptimum moisture contentmaximum dry unit weightBland–Altman analysisgeogridrecycled materialsinterface shear strengthlarge-direct shear testbase course reinforcementpavement geotechnicsrecycled aluminum salt slagresilient modulusleachate analysissoil–cementrecycled wastefatigue lifesubgradecompressive strengthgeogrid-reinforced soil structuresubstitute building materialrecycled materialgreen infrastructurepolypropylene fibersdrained teststress–dilatancywastestiresCDWPET bottlessustainability in geotechnical engineeringsustainable ground remediationgeopolymersTechnology: general issuesHistory of engineering & technologyVieira Castorina Silvaedt1314099Vieira Castorina SilvaothBOOK9910566464503321Sustainability in Geotechnics: The Use of Environmentally Friendly Materials3031705UNINA
