This book presents select proceedings of the International Conference on Recent Advances in Structural Engineering (RAISE 2024). It covers the developments in structural engineering with a particular focus on building materials relevant to sustainable development. The book delves into three main themes - advanced construction materials, repair and rehabilitation, and interdisciplinary research areas. It also emphasizes the significant applications of the developments under these themes in sustainable environments, fire resistance, and long durable concrete structures. This book also provides in-depth technical discussions and hence it will be a valuable resource for researchers and professionals alike.
