Abstract:
Portland cement is a main type of construction materials, however his production does harm to the environment. In article the author has considered prospects of production technologies and the main properties of the eco-friendly knitting materials in the concrete used when constructing facilities different function. Researches have shown that alternative types of eco-friendly materials have the limited fields of use, but can widely be used for construction of roads, airfields, hydraulic engineering constructions already in the nearest future. Speed of their introduction in production will depend on activity and demand of consumers for these types of cement.

Abstract:
The building and construction sectors are one of the main contributors to the socio-economic development of a country. Globally, these sectors generate around 5% to 10% of national employment and around 5% to 15% of a country's gross domestic product during construction, use and demolition. On the other hand, the sectors consume around 40% of world primary energy, use 30% of raw materials, generate 25% of solid waste, consume 25% of water, and use 12% of land. Furthermore, the sectors account for up to 40% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, mainly from energy use during the life cycle of buildings. This study aims to assess the potential environmental benefits of reusing concrete and ceramic roof tile within the Swedish context in terms of their CO2 emission. Methodology used was a comparative LCA was to quantify the emissions. In order to calculate LCA, OpenLCA 1.7.0 software was used and to evaluate the emissions, LCIA method selected was ReCiPe, midpoint, Hierarchist model, climate change category expressed in GWP 100 years (in kg CO2eq). The FU of the study was a square meter of roof covering for a period of 40 years with potential to extent up to 80 years. A square meter of concrete roof tile weight 40 kg while ceramic 30 kg. The environment impact evaluation considered three product system, single use (cradle to grave), single use covering (cradle to user) and single reuse (user to cradle) within 40 years lifespan. In order to compare LCA of the roof tiles, two scenarios were created, Scenario 1 concrete RT in single use and single reuse whilst Scenario 2 evaluates ceramic RT. The outcomes of both scenarios were communicated through a model single family house. Dalarna’s Villa is located in Dalarna region in Sweden and a storage facility Ta Till Våra was to validate the benefits of reused materials. Comparative LCA revealed that concrete RT in single use released almost 80% more CO2 emissions than ceramic RT and generated 25% more disposable material by weight. The CO2 released by the single use vs. single reuse concrete RT showed higher emissions in the production of the concrete RT than the single reuse, the same occur with ceramic RT. The reuse of the tiles on the same site had an insignificant impact on the environment in both materials. The comparison shows that reuse reduces associated emissions by about 80% in both cases, reusing concrete is more beneficial, as emissions are reduced by 9.95 kg/m2 as opposed to 2.32 kg/m2 at the ceramics. This study reveals the benefit of reusing concrete and ceramic roof tile. In addition, the advantage of building a storage facility to reuse the disposable building materials, reducing the roofing materials ending at the landfill after 40 years. Furthermore, it demonstrated the reduction of CO2 emissions associated with the embodied energy.

Abstract:
Les constructions en terre crue, soit fabriquées à partir de sol, sont considérées comme des constructions durables en raison de leur faible empreinte environnementale : les matériaux de construction à base de terre crue non stabilisée ont une faible énergie intrinsèque, d'excellentes propriétés hygroscopiques et un fort potentiel de recyclage. Cependant, sous cette forme, les matériaux sont susceptibles de se détériorer au contact de l’eau. Ainsi, les éléments de constructions modernes en terre crue utilisent du ciment pour améliorer leur durabilité, mais entachent de ce fait leurs propriétés hygroscopiques et leur potentiel de recyclable. Il est donc impératif de développer des solutions alternatives à l’incorporation de ciment, pouvant améliorer la résistance à l’eau sans pour autant compromettre les propriétés qui constituent les atouts de ces matériaux durables. Ces travaux de doctorat étudient l'utilisation de deux biopolymères, la gomme de guar et le xanthane, comme stabilisants naturels pour les matériaux de construction en terre crue. Dans un premier temps, une campagne expérimentale a été menée pour comprendre le mécanisme de stabilisation de la terre par ces biopolymères et optimiser cette technique. Les résultats révèlent que la nature intrinsèque des biopolymères induit la formation d’hydrogels qui participent à renforcer le matériau et à modifier les phénomènes de succion. L’addition d’environ 2,0 % de biopolymère en masse de sol sec est suffisant pour obtenir un comportement mécanique comparable à la stabilisation au ciment à un taux de 8,0 %. Afin de mieux caractériser l’influence des biopolymères, les propriétés hydrauliques et mécaniques des sols ainsi stabilisés ont été étudiées. Les tests de caractérisation prouvent que, pour une même gamme de teneur en eau, la succion des sols stabilisés par les biopolymères est supérieure à celle des sols non stabilisés. Les courbes de rétention d'eau sol démontrent que la valeur d'entrée d'air est augmentée en présence des biopolymères, ce qui affecte la distribution de la taille des vides. Les paramètres de résistance au cisaillement ont été obtenus par des essais triaxiaux à teneur d’eau constante. Les deux biopolymères ont un effet significatif, et pourtant différent, sur la cohésion du sol et l'angle de friction interne. Dans le temps, la modification de résistance des sols stabilisés à la gomme de guar est liée à la variation de la composante de friction, tandis que pour les sols stabilisés à la gomme de xanthane cette variation est pilotée par la cohésion du sol. L'analyse microstructurale par micro tomographie X-RCT montre que les biopolymères favorisent l’agglomération des particules de sol, ce qui modifie la porosité globale. Les courbes de distribution de la taille des vides obtenues par balayage XRCT confirment les résultats des essais de succion. Pour finir, les performances en termes de durabilité de ces matériaux de construction stabilisés aux biopolymères en présence d'eau ont été validées par différents tests ainsi que leur potentiel de recyclage. Il apparait donc que l'utilisation de ces biopolymères comme stabilisant améliore la résistance mécanique des matériaux en terre crue et leur durabilité ; et que contrairement à la stabilisation au ciment le comportement hygroscopique est conservé - voire amélioré-, ainsi que le potentiel de recyclage
Earthen structures (i.e. structural units manufactured from soil) are often regarded as sustainable forms of construction due to their characteristically low carbon footprint. Unstabilised earthen construction materials have low embodied energy, excellent hygroscopic properties and recycling potential. However, in this form, the material is susceptible to deterioration against water ingress and most modern earthen construction materials rely on cement to improve their durability properties. Using cement leads to compromises in hygroscopicproperties and recyclability potential. In this situation, it is imperative to look for alternatives to cement, which can address these issues without compromising on the desired engineering properties of these materials. This thesis explores the use of biopolymers, namely guar and xanthan gum, as stabilisers for earthen construction materials. As an initial step, an experimental campaign was undertaken to understand biopolymer stabilisation and optimise their use to stabilise earthen construction materials. The results from this campaign reveal that biopolymer stabilised soils derive their strength through a combination of soil suction and hydrogel formation. The intrinsic chemical properties of the biopolymer affect the nature of hydrogel formation and in turn strength. In a subsequent campaign of experimental work, hydraulic and mechanical properties of these biopolymer stabilised soils were determined. The hydraulic properties of the biopolymer stabilised soils indicate that for the range of water contents, the suction values of biopolymer stabilised soils are higher than unamended soils. The soil water retention curves suggest that both biopolymers have increased the air entry value of the soil while affecting the void size distribution. Shear strength parameters of biopolymer stabilised soils were obtained through constant water triaxial tests, and it was noted that both biopolymers have a significant and yet different effect on soil cohesion and internal friction angle. With time, guar gum stabilised soils derive strength through the frictional component of the soil strength, while xanthan gum stabilised soil strength has a noticeable contribution from soil cohesion. Macrostructural analysis in the form of X-RCT scans indicate that both biopolymers form soil agglomerations and increase overall porosity. The void size distribution curves obtained from XRCT scanning complement the findings of the suction tests. As a final study, the performance of biopolymer stabilised earthen construction materials was assessed as a building material. Durability performance of these materials against water ingress was evaluated, and it was noted both biopolymers provide satisfactory stabilisation to improve the erosional resistance of the material. In conclusion, unlike cement, biopolymer stabilised earthen materials do not compromise on hygroscopic properties and have better mechanical performance than unamended earthen construction materials. Finally, recyclability tests suggest that apart from improving the strength, durability and hygroscopic properties of the material, biopolymer stabilised earthen construction materials have a better potential for recycling without any environmental concerns

Abstract:
This thesis reports on a materials science appraisal for recycled construction materials in roadways, that supports engineering decision-making. Inconsistent performance criteria for roadway materials and the variable nature of material source have prompted the need for this research. The aim of the study is to investigate the application of a materials science appraisal to recycled construction materials for use in roadways. The investigation is undertaken through a literature review of roadways, conceptual development of the materials science appraisal methodology, and demonstration of the application of the materials science appraisal to recycled construction materials; and how this supports engineering decision-making. The literature review revealed that there are numerous and proven uses of recycled and secondary materials in roadway applications but there was a lack of necessary integration of materials into categories by material-type, which can better describe behaviour in an engineering situation. Three novel fundamental material types (ceramic, metallic, and polymeric) have been described. The conceptual development of the innovative and novel materials science appraisal, based on material-type, has defined how materials science through a systematic step-by-step procedure can be used to achieve engineering sustainability in roadways and provide support in engineering decision-making. The application of the novel concept of the materials science appraisal to recycled construction materials is shown through the essence of laboratory testing. The results from the materials science appraisal, together with sensitivity analysis, give an informed engineering decision on product choice. The appraisal is novel in that it is proposing a new theory on materials science and developed a paradigm shift in the evaluation of recycled construction materials. The appraisal overcomes the absence of materials science thinking in the field of roadway engineering. The materials science appraisal is of benefit to various stakeholders (client, consultant, supplier and contractor) as it provides a method for addressing material uncertainties. A system now exists for introducing into designs and any contract the principles of the materials science appraisal that will be of great benefit to industry.

Abstract:
The peoples demand of functions and services in cities is the driver for energy and material flows. Most people in the world are now living in urban areas. In order to achieve a sustainable development of cities, both resource use and environmental impact have to be reduced. For construction activities, an important aspect is to increase the reuse of construction materials. From a resource perspective, the urban demand for construction of buildings, infrastructure and other facilities results in materials accumulated in constructions but also in other applications and in landfills. The materials can be described as the urban material stock where some materials are used and others are not used, i.e. wasted. There are many cases where material stocks are used for construction purposes. For example, used concrete and bricks, excavated soil and rock from construction projects and other wasted materials such as rubber from tires can be crushed, shredded and sorted to granules and used in many different construction applications. Different perspectives can be applied when assessing the environmental impacts of using stocked material in construction. The overall aim of this thesis is to study the environmental impacts of using granular soil, rock and rubber in construction. For soil and rock, the aim is to study the environmental impact of material management in urban areas. For granular rubber, the aim is to study the environmental impact of artificial turf from a life cycle perspective and from different infill materials of recycled and new rubber and plastics.  The literature of excavated soil and rock was reviewed in order to identify and quantify the material flows and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the management of soil and rock materials. For artificial turf and the different infill materials, a life cycle approach was used to quantify the energy use and GHG emissions. A chemical analysis of potential chemical leaching from the different infill materials to water was conducted in order to compare potential local emissions to water.  Based on the results, it was concluded that the knowledge about the urban flows of excavated soil and rock is lacking in terms of patterns, quantities, qualities and its environmental performance. A resource perspective is missing in the literature. However, the recycling of soil and rock can reduce resource use and GHG emissions. It was suggested that models are developed that take into account future material demand and availability to soils and rock. From such information it would be able to assess sustainable management practices and the possibilities of sharing materials between urban construction projects in order to reduce resource use and environmental impact.  It was concluded that for the life cycle of artificial turf, the production of construction materials contributes largely to energy use and GHG emissions. Differences in terms of energy use and GHG emissions for the production of infill materials are large. The production of new material required more energy and resulted in more GHG emissions than using recycled rubber. The potential release of substances from infill materials to water were shown to be possible for all infill materials analyzed. Previous assessments of local environmental impacts of using infills generally concludes that the impacts are small. These assessments are primarily focused on infill of recycled tires. It is therefore concluded that environmental assessments of local impact should include all infill types.  Environmental assessments of using stocked materials in construction should take into consideration the material applications´ significance for the environmental impacts at a higher system level. Broader system boundaries in environmental assessments will reduce the risk for sub-optimizations when taking decisions on how materials should be used in construction.

Abstract:
As more owners seek to develop sustainable buildings, the construction industry is adapting to new requirements in order to meet owner's concerns. Material selection has been identified as an area where designers and contractors can have a significant impact on the sustainable performance of a building. Objective factors such as design considerations and cost constraints can play a role in the selection of materials. However, there may be subjective factors that could also impact the selection of materials. Building upon the potential impact of sustainability perceptions in an optimization model that can be used to help decision makers to select materials, this study defines and tests an instrument to identify and measure such perceptions. The purpose of this dissertation is to develop a conceptual instrument that measures the user-based assessment of product sustainability and validates decision-maker's perceptions in order to evaluate the contribution of subjective characteristics in materials selection. A survey of design and construction students and practitioners is carried out to capture the subjective factors included in the instrument. A Factor Analysis approach is used to refine and validate the measurement instrument and predict decision-makers' sustainability appraisal due to the factors considered.

Abstract:
Process industry, construction and other comparable activities produce large quantities of waste with potential use in geotechnical applications. Prior to utilisation, an acceptably low risk of contamination to humans and the environment must be demonstrated. This work focuses on the identification and evaluation of critical factors for environmental assessments of secondary construction materials. The market potential and the main barriers for usage of industrial wastes were analysed and showed a good potential especially in urban areas. The main obstacle is the long and complicated permit process involved. Further, the lack of a general procedure to investigate the suitability of intended usage leads to inconsistent assessments. An evaluation of leachate emissions from a large-scale test road demonstrated the importance of construction design and site-specific field conditions on the potential environmental impacts. It was also shown that pollutant concentrations in leachate from secondary construction materials tend to become comparable, or for some pollutants, even lower than from rock materials. Different assessment methods and criteria to judge the acceptability of an intended use were reviewed and various methods were identified. However, a generic method to evaluate materials under various environmental conditions is lacking.

Abstract:
An essential factor adversely affecting the performance of construction projects is the improper handling of materials during site activities. Materials management is made problematic by materials shortages, delays in supply, price fluctuations, damage and wastage, and lack of storages pace. In addition, paper-based reports are mostly used to record and exchange information related to the materials component within a supply chain which is problematic, error-prone, and inefficient. Generally, modem technologies are not being adequately used to overcome human error and are not well integrated with project management systems to make the tracking and management of materials easier and faster. Thus, this research focuses on the development of a mechanism to improve materials management on construction projects through the integration of materials tracking and resource modelling systems. A multi-facetted research approach was adopted. Initially, a literature review on materials management process in the construction project was conducted. This was followed by case studies involving six construction projects in order to investigate current practice in materials management to establish key problem areas and elements of good practice. The case studies also explored the requirements for integrating materials management and resource modelling in project management systems. The case study findings underpinned by literature results were used to develop a real-time framework for integrating RFID-based materials tracking and resource modelling. The framework was encapsulated in a computer-based prototype system based on Microsoft Visual Basic. NET. The prototype system was developed by amalgamation of all the software and hardware chosen such as MS Access (database system), MS Project (resource modelling) and RFID (automated materials tracking) to provide the mechanisms for integrating materials management and resource modelling in the construction industry. Evaluation of the prototype system was carried out by a series of interviews with industry practitioners to assess its appropriateness and functionality. It also established the skills and other requirements for the effective use of the real-time materials tracking system. The evaluation established that the prototype system demonstrated many benefits and is suitable for use in materials tracking and inventory management processes. It is concluded that the prototype system developed can improve materials management on construction projects, particularly with regard to materials tracking and integrating materials utilisation with the resource modelling subsystem in project management applications. Adoption of the approaches suggested in the thesis will enable the construction industry to improve the real-time management of materials on sites, and hence improve project performance.
