Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation for Civil Engineers

We invite researchers, academics, and industry professionals to contribute chapters to this upcoming book, which explores the critical role of civil engineers in addressing global climate change challenges. This book aims to equip engineers with the knowledge and tools needed to design energy-efficient, green structures that can withstand extreme weather events and rising sea levels. Key topics will include the use of non-fossil energy sources, circular economy principles, and sustainable building practices. Additionally, the book will emphasize the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, regulatory compliance, and advanced strategies for developing climate-adaptive and climate-neutral infrastructure.

This book is significant in preparing engineers to build resilient, low-emission infrastructure while adhering to stricter environmental policies. With climate disasters becoming more frequent, engineers must innovate and adopt sustainable solutions to minimize environmental impact. The book will also recognize climate action as a shared responsibility that extends beyond businesses, incorporating a broad societal perspective.

We seek chapter contributions that provide practical insights into integrating sustainable, low-carbon, and climate-resilient approaches into engineering projects. Topics may include navigating complex climate laws, implementing cutting-edge techniques, and designing adaptable structures. Through this collaborative effort, the book will empower engineers to lead the transition toward a more climate-friendly built environment.

Book ProjECT-III

Advanced Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Matrices: Enhancing Performance and Longevity of Concrete Structures

We invite contributions for the forthcoming book, which explores the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) structures using fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM). This book goes beyond existing design guidelines from Canada, Europe, and the U.S., providing practical insights into material characterization, flexural and shear strengthening, and column confinement. It will cover FRCM installation techniques, including externally bonded (EB) and near-surface-mounted (NSM) systems, supported by design examples, experimental comparisons, and innovative design aids based on ACI 549.6R-20 and CNR DT 215-2018.

The book is designed for senior undergraduate and graduate students, as well as professionals in structural engineering and construction. It will provide comprehensive guidance on surface preparation, field applications, quality assurance, and troubleshooting. Case studies will highlight real-world applications, bridging the gap between theory and practice. The book will also explore the evolution, benefits, and testing methods of FRCM, reflecting its growing importance in modern construction.

We actively encourage contributions from researchers, academics, and industry professionals with expertise in structural engineering, material science, rehabilitation techniques, and related fields. This book aims to bring together diverse perspectives, ensuring a multidisciplinary approach bridging the gap between theoretical research and real-world applications. By including insights from experts in academia and industry, we seek to provide a well-rounded resource that covers both the fundamental principles and practical implementation of FRCM strengthening. Contributions from design, construction, and rehabilitation professionals will add valuable practical knowledge, while academic researchers can provide cutting-edge advancements and scientific developments. This collaborative effort will help create a comprehensive reference that benefits students, engineers, researchers, and industry practitioners alike.
