Aims & Scope

Materiales de Construcción is a quarterly, scientific Journal published in English, intended for researchers, plant technicians and other professionals engaged in the area of Construction, Materials Science and Technology. Scientific articles focus mainly on: - Physics and chemistry of the formation of cement and other binders. - Cement and concrete. Components (aggregate, admixtures, additions and similar). Behaviour and properties. - Durability and corrosion of other construction materials. - Restoration and conservation of the materials in heritage monuments. - Weathering and the deterioration of construction materials. - Use of industrial waste and by-products in construction. - Manufacture and properties of other construction materials, such as: gypsum/plaster, lime%2
