RILEM, The International Union of Laboratories and Experts in Construction Materials, Systems and Structures, founded in 1947, is a non-governmental scientific association whose goal is to contribute to progress in the construction sciences, techniques and industries, essentially by means of the communication it fosters between research and practice. RILEM’s focus is on construction materials and their use in building and civil engineering structures, covering all phases of the building process from manufacture to use and recycling of materials. More information on RILEM and its previous publications can be found on www.RILEM.net.

Preface
The most promising route to improving the sustainability of cement and 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 and concrete. The book of proceedings of the international conference on the calcined clay for sustainable concrete contains papers written by practitioners and researchers from all continents. They brought together the advanced studies on the use of calcined clays in concrete. The topics covered are clays geology, hydration of blended cement, performance, alkali-activated binders, economical and ecological impacts and field applications. The Editors would like to thank the authors for the o
