Abstract:
This session explores the positive role concrete infrastructure can play in improved energy efficiency and reduced carbon emissions through the efficient use of green and cost-effective binder systems. Presentation topics include: high-volume replacement of portland cement, including complex mixture designs; blended cements and the use of reduced-energy clinkers; design methodologies that optimize the use of greener binders, including alkali activation; and improved durability and service-life prediction of structures with green binders.
