SUMMARY:Sustainable Materials and Practices in Civil Engineering
DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. \nPlease view the PDF slides here or watch the video recording below:\n \nWebinar details\nIn 2021\, construction activities globally rebounded to pre-pandemic levels. It was reported that the building and construction sector accounted for approximately 37% of energy- and process-related CO2 emissions and over 34% of global energy demand. Utilizing sustainable materials and implementing sustainable practices in civil engineering has become crucial for the sustainable development of our society. \nThis webinar will discuss the current trends in sustainable materials and practices in civil engineering\, with a specific focus on building and construction. The life cycle of construction materials and relevant policies aimed at achieving efficient and resilient buildings and construction will also be covered. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nThe building and construction industry has been employing sustainable materials and adopting sustainable practices.\nThere is considerable untapped potential for further advancements in sustainable materials and practices.\nImplementing relevant policies to promote the development of sustainable materials and practices can lead to a reduction in energy consumption.\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Civil Engineering\, particularly found in the following courses: \n\n52896WA Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering (Materials Testing)\nOnline – Bachelor of Science (Civil & Structural Engineering)\nOn-Campus – Bachelor of Science (Civil & Structural Engineering)\nOnline – Master of Engineering (Civil: Structural)\nOn-Campus – Master of Engineering (Civil: Structural)\nGraduate Certificate in Civil Engineering (Structural Analysis and Design)\n\nAbout the presenter\n \nDr. Shasha Wang\, EIT Lecturer  \nDr. Shasha Wang is an on-campus lecturer in civil engineering at the Engineering Institute of Technology (EIT)\, Melbourne Campus. She is a dedicated and passionate educator\, having taught various engineering courses in both Australia and Singapore. Driven by a commitment to a student-centered\, industry-oriented approach to engineering teaching\, she brings enthusiasm to her role. Her research interests encompass cement-based materials\, concrete structures under impact loading\, high-performance concrete (HPC)\, ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC)\, green concrete\, low-carbon concrete structures\, as well as the repair and rehabilitation of civil structures and infrastructures.
