Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The scope of the current Special Issue is the latest highlights of the recycling of concrete and recycled materials in concrete. It will therefore cover recycled aggregates from concrete, alternative materials used in concrete and the potential technical and environmental constraints faced in a circular life. The latter is important because new products need to fulfil user criteria in their primary service life and the following recycling life cycle.
