Abstract: Sustainability of Concrete materials and Structures refers to materials and structures which not only have sufficient strength and durability but which meet these requirements throughout their intended life time in intended applications. The term sustainability, indeed durable in French, reflects the need to address environmental, societal and economic priorities. Cement and Concrete have a significant large impact on the environment with 1 ton of CO2 resulting for every ton of cement produced and with the cement production industry contributing to a significant quantity of the global carbon emissions.
