Sustainable, Concrete, Cementitious MaterialsAbstract
This study presents a comprehensive review of sustainable concrete that incorporates supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). It evaluates the impact of SCMs on the durability and compressive strength of concrete, while also considering the environmental implications of their use. The findings highlight the potential benefits of utilizing SCMs in concrete production, emphasizing their role in enhancing performance and reducing the carbon footprint of construction materials.
