The most promising route to improving the sustainability of Cement & Concrete is to blend Portland Cement Clinker with substitution materials often referred to as Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs). However supplies of the most common SCMs, which are slag and fly ash are quiet limited compared to the worldwide production of cement. Calcined Clays are the most promising source of additional SCMs which can make a substantial contribution to lowering further the environmental impact of Cement & Concrete This conference aims to bring together scientific studies and first experiences of the application of Calcined Clays in Cement and Concrete for the first time.
