Abstract [eng] Construction material production has a great impact on the depletion of natural resources and greenhouse gas emissions caused by fossil fuel combustion, thus affecting global climate change and ozone depletion. On the other hand, building materials are largely determining the energy consumption in buildings and having environmental impacts. "e goal for sustainable future in building material production is development of new environmentally friendly materials and constructions for sustainable buildings securing long-term environmental, economic, and social viability. "erefore, the main aim of this Special Issue was to provide a platform for publishing the latest knowledge about application of sustainability as one of the most important topics in development of sustainable building materials and technologies. Although call for papers included a wide range of potential topics, the Special Issue Sustainable Building Materials and Technologies 2020 contains only 7 papers addressed to advances in application of supplementary cementitious materials as alternative binder components in concrete. "e utilization of industrial waste, by-products, and vegetal fibres incorporated into cement mortar/concrete for hydration process, strength development, and durability improvement of high performance concrete is analysed in detail in some papers bringing innovative integrated solutions to key building materials.
