Advances in Green, Low-Carbon, High-Performance, and Intelligent Building Materials and Structures

Dear Colleagues,

With the advancement of science and technology, human society has increasingly high building material and structural performance requirements. Furthermore, with the current background of global climate change, sustainable development, and global intelligence, building materials and structures must progress towards green, low-carbon, high-performance and intelligent alternatives.

This Special Issue aims to promote the exchange of academic research, industrial applications, and policymaking, share research results, explore future development directions, and jointly contribute to the realization of green, low-carbon, high-performance, and intelligent engineering construction. Review and research papers on areas including but not limited to the following are welcome:

• Research and application of green and low-carbon building materials;
• Conversion and utilization of building materials from urban solid waste;
• The design of buildings based on green and low-carbon concepts;
• Green, low-carbon, and high-performance steel and lightweight structures;
• Nano-modified high-performance concrete materials and structures;
• Green and low-carbon design of high-performance building structures;
• Research and application of intelligent construction materials;
• Building structure design based on artificial intelligence;
• Application of intelligent and automated technologies in engineering construction and structural health monitoring.
