TY - CONF A1 - Schmidt, Wolfram T1 - Policies and codes for sustainable cement and concrete technologies in the Global South N2 - This paper explores three primary pathways for improving sustainable cement and concrete technologies: cement production, concrete production, and recycling technologies. It underscores the importance of policy frameworks for transitioning from prescriptive to performance-based standards to foster innovation and support low-carbon technologies, while also addressing the economic, political, and social drivers that shape policy and industry practices. The research questions the replication of Global North standards in the Global South, advocating for locally adapted, unique regional policies. T2 - 11. Jahrestagung des DAfStb mit 63.
