New energy-efficient materials are increasingly used in architecture and civil engineering
today. Many of these are based on the reuse of plants and plant residues from industry and …

Bio-based building materials are composites of vegetal particles embedded in an organic or
mineral matrix. Their multi-scale porous structure confers to them interesting thermal …

This work aimed to develop a new biocomposite material that could be used as thermal
insulation in buildings. The goal was to investigate experimentally the effect of date palm …

The article presents the results obtained in the course of a study on prospective application
of flax/hemp wastes as a filling material of lime-based composites in the construction of low …

Different fractions of hemp shives are used in the mixtures of the hemp–lime composite. The
market offers shives of different granulation. It depends on the type of industrial hemp and on …

Research was performed into the use of hemp shive as a fast-growing and carbon-storing
agricultural waste material in the production of particleboard for the construction industry …

In this work, the effect of alkaline treatment on the thermal insulation and mechanical
properties of date palm wood fibers (DPWF) and polylactic acid (PLA) green composite was …

Bio-based building materials are produced by recovering agricultural biomasses which are
used as vegetal aggregate to replace traditional ones and realize more sustainable building …

This study investigates the performance of three different types of cenosphere as a
lightweight supplementary cementitious material for alkali-activated binder for lightweight …

Significant amount of waste associated with end of life vehicles enter waste stream each
year and are usually disposed of in landfill, creating an environmental burden. Recycling …
