Dr. F. Pacheco Torgal is a Principal Investigator at the University of Minho in Portugal. He holds the title of Counsellor at the Portuguese Engineers Association. He is a member of the editorial boards for nine international journals. Over the last 10 years he has participated in the research decision for more than 460 papers and has also acted as a Foreign Expert on the evaluation of 22 PhD thesis. Over the last 10 years he has also been a Member of the Scientific Committees for more than 60 conferences, most of them held in Asian countries. He is also a grant assessor for several scientific institutions in 15 countries, including the UK, US, Netherlands, China, France, Australia, Kazakhstan, Belgium, Spain, Czech Republic, Chile, Saudi Arabia, UA. Emirates, Croatia, Poland, and the EU Commission. In the last 10 years, he reviewed more than 70 research projects. Francesco Colangelo is a Full Professor of Innovative Materials for Civil Engineering and the director of the master’s course in Safety Engineering in the Department of Engineering at Parthenope University of Naples, Italy. His main research areas include recycling of waste materials in concrete and geo-environmental and civil applications, treatment of MSWI fly ash, application of lifecycle assessment methodology to various processes for preparing innovative building materials, evaluation of the durability of mortars and concrete, stabilization and solidification of hazardous wastes, and synthesis of geopolymeric eco-sustainable materials based on industrial waste. He has extensive consultancy experience in the treatment and recycling of solid waste, remediation of old landfills, and resource recovery plants. He has served as the principal investigator for numerous research projects in collaboration with public and private companies. Since 2012, he has been a senior member of RILEM.Dr. Rabin Tuladhar is an Associate Professor and Head of Engineering in the College of Science and Engineering at James Cook University, Australia. He served as Director of Engineering Studies (2018-2020) and Associate Dean of Learning and Teaching (ADLT) (2012-2018) for the College of Science and Engineering. He is a Civil Engineer, with specialization in Concrete and Structure Engineering. He has established close collaborations with local industries to conduct translational research in the areas of sustainable and innovative construction materials, durability of structures, rehabilitation of aged infrastructure and structural health monitoring. Yining Ding is Professor in the Institute of Structural Engineering at Dalian University of Technology, China. He has published over 100 papers in three languages.
