Editorial
Abstract
This special issue of Journal of Materials and Engineering Structures (JMES) includes manuscripts of some of the presentations at the Forth International Conference on Sustainability in Civil Engineering (ICSCE 2022), held during 25-27 November, 2023 at Hanoi, Vietnam. We believe that all the papers published in this special issue will be an opportunity for researchers to present recent works on Sustainability in Civil Engineering field. The International Conference on Sustainability in Civil Engineering is very significant to the development of new ideas and the promotion of research into advanced in Sustainability in Civil Engineering field. ICSCE 2022 received more than 220 abstracts and 162 full papers from 14 countries and 120 full papers were accepted. According to their subject and their merit by professionals, twenty-five of the best papers presented at the ICSCE 2022 Conference have been rigorously reviewed before being accepted for this special issue. The first paper is a keynote speaker. It focuses on resource recycling, low carbon emissions, and environmental safety as means to building a sustainable environment in order to reinforce concrete works, particularly in civil engineering buildings. Six interesting articles deal with works of art and particularly bridges. Methods for detecting structural damage as part of monitoring during the operating phase are thus presented. Other methods for analyzing the delayed or dynamic responses of bridges are also covered. Five articles in this issue deal with the theme of road operation, monitoring their condition, as well as the use of construction waste or industrial waste in the construction of new roads. Five articles deal with the theme related to transport infrastructures such as railways and tunnels. Some of the other papers deal with the subject of durability relating to different themes of civil engineering, such as the performance of concrete reinforced with ash-based Geopolymer, GFRP rebars, fly ash and recycled concrete aggregate by cement. We thank all of the authors who contributed to this special issue. You can find below the important information on the forth International Conference on Sustainability in Civil Engineering such as the aim and scope and the main topics of the ICSCE2022.
