Sustainable Construction Materials

This book presents the select proceedings of the International Conference on Advances in Construction Materials and Management (ACMM 2021). It discusses the recent innovations towards construction management, building technology and new materials in practice in civil engineering. Various topics covered include architecture and urban planning, smart materials and structures, GIS in construction application, transportation materials and engineering, geotechnical applications in construction, energy and sustainability, green building technologies and materials and construction management. The book will be useful for beginners, researchers and professionals working in the area of civil engineering.

Social Value Investing

Social Value Investing presents a new way to approach some of society’s most difficult and intractable challenges. Although many of our world’s problems may seem too great and too complex to solve — inequality, climate change, affordable housing, corruption, healthcare, food insecurity — solutions to these challenges do exist, and will be found through new partnerships bringing together leaders from the public, private, and philanthropic sectors. In their new book, Howard W. Buffett and William B. Eimicke present a five-point management framework for developing and measuring the success of such partnerships. Inspired by value investing — one of history’s most successful investmen...

Improving Cementitious Properties of Blended Pozzolan Based Materials for Construction of Low Cost Buildings in Mbeya Region, Tanzania

This study therefore investigated and improved cementitious properties of pozzolan blended with calcium hydroxide, gypsum and cement in order to extend its use from low strength mortars to concrete works which can be used for low to medium rise structural applications. Characterization, strength tests and durability tests were performed on pozzolan mixtures under laboratory conditions and the effects of adding gypsum to pozzolan and calcium hydroxide mixtures on the compressive strength and durability of cured concrete specimens were investigated.

Smart Devices: Modeling of Material Systems

The SDMoMS workshop provided a forum for exchange of ideas between the smart material modeling community and the design community. The possibility of a common modeling framework was explored to come up with modeling tools and to enable designers with exercising their choice of materials from an array of existing smart materials, gather material property data, and compare and simulate these materials in a relatively simple manner before arriving at an optimal design. The workshop focused on materials such as shape memory materials, magnetic solids and fluids, polymers for smart applications and ferroelectrics.

Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Balanced Scorecard im Innovationsprozess

Ausgangspunkt der vorliegenden Untersuchung ist, dass die Verwendung von Performance Measurement sowohl in der Theorie als auch in der Praxis bislang als problematisch angesehen wird. Dieses bezieht sich aber in erster Linie auf das Kostencontrolling, weniger auf die Prozess- und Organisationsdimension des Innovationsprozesses. So besteht die Unterstützungsfunktion des Innovationscontrollings nicht nur darin, die Reduzierung der Innovationskosten sowie die Erhöhung der Qualität von Innovation zu messen und damit managen zu können, sondern darüber hinaus Instrumente für die Steuerung des Innovationsprozesses in der Organisationskultur zu verankern, damit diese überhaupt wirksam werden....
