Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With rapid economic development and urbanization, the widespread use of concrete has led to significant carbon emissions. To address this challenge, this Special Issue, titled "Low-Carbon Concrete from Different Solid Waste Sources", aims to bring together researchers, experts, and practitioners to discuss the latest research findings on mechanical properties, durability, microstructure, and environmental impact. In addition, we encourage the exploration of potential solutions for low-carbon concrete production using solid waste materials.
The Special Issue will cover, but is not limited to, the following:
- Low-carbon UHPC;
- Multi-physics deterioration modeling for reinforced concrete structures;
- FRP-reinforced concrete structures;
- Modular construction;
- The preparation process of low-carbon concrete from solid waste sources and its effects on mechanical properties, durability, and environmental impact;
- The effects mechanisms of solid waste admixture on concrete microstructure;
- The current status and prospects of solid waste applications in low-carbon concrete;
- The technical challenges and policy recommendations for the resource utilization of solid waste;
- 3D printing concrete construction virtual simulation and numerical simulation;
- The application of multi-scale stochastic finite element in isogeometric analysis;
- Computer-aided design and finite element software development.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
