Emerging Construction Materials for Sustainable Infrastructure

Guest Editors: Message from the Guest Editors
Prof. Dr. Jian-Guo Dai Dear Colleagues,
cejgdai@polyu.edu.hk
Concrete infrastructure is the basis of our society and plays
Dr. Mehran Khan an important role in supporting economic development.
mehran.khan@polyu.edu.hk
Sustainability of concrete infrastructure has become a
Prof. Dr. Majid Ali critical issue worldwide due to the ever-increasing
majid.ali@cust.edu.pk deterioration of concrete and steel materials under
combined mechanical loading and environmental action.
Prof. Dr. Mingli Cao
To carry out appropriate maintenance on the existing
minglic@dlut.edu.cn
aging concrete structures for service life extension and to
realize highly durable and maintenance-free new concrete
structures, the research community has been focusing their
Deadline for manuscript continuous efforts on creating novel construction materials
submissions:
with specialized features.
10 May 2022
The aim of this Special Issue is to publish up-to-date
research contributions related to emerging civil
engineering materials for sustainable concrete
infrastructures, including advanced reinforcing materials
and concrete composites. State-of-the-art material
approaches used for the development of sustainable
concrete infrastructure are particularly encouraged.

Materials (ISSN 1996-1944) was launched in 2008. The
journal covers twenty comprehensive topics: biomaterials,
energy materials, advanced composites, structure analysis
and characterization, porous materials, manufacturing
processes and systems, advanced nanomaterials, smart
materials, thin films and interfaces, catalytic materials and
carbon materials, materials chemistry, materials physics,
optics and photonics, corrosion and materials
degradation, construction and building materials,
materials simulation and design, electronic materials,
advanced and functional ceramics, metals and alloys,
general. The distinguished and dedicated editorial board
and our strict peer-review process ensure the highest
degree of scientific rigor and review of all published
articles. Materials provides a unique opportunity to
contribute high quality articles and to take advantage of its
large readership.
