Urgent development of new, recycled, smart building materials

Director of Hanoi Department of Construction Vo Nguyen Phong delivered the opening speech at the workshop.

Speaking at the opening of the workshop, Director of Hanoi Department of Construction Vo Nguyen Phong said that construction materials play a very important role in the development of each country and locality, especially the capital Hanoi. With the increasing speed of urbanization, the demand for construction materials for construction works is increasing, in which traditional construction materials exploited from natural mineral sources are increasingly limited.

Therefore, the demand for new, recycled, smart materials... suitable for modern architecture to replace traditional construction materials is being researched, developed and used more and more in construction works, transportation... Therefore, the research, development and production of new types of construction materials and recycled materials to meet the demand for construction materials in the industrialization and urbanization of Hanoi in particular and the whole country in general is extremely important.

"With the characteristics of Hanoi as the capital of the whole country, the political , economic, cultural and educational center of the country, there are certain potential advantages in many fields. However, for the construction materials sector, due to the limited mineral resources for materials in the city and limited exploitation capacity, the development of this sector still faces many difficulties in the supply of input materials" - Director of Hanoi Department of Construction Vo Nguyen Phong shared.

The leader of the Hanoi Department of Construction also said that the city is implementing many investment projects to build urban areas, housing, and traffic projects, including the national key project (Ring Road 4). Therefore, the demand for some types of materials for these projects requires a very large quantity, and it is not possible to proactively supply enough local sources, especially loose materials (construction stones, embankment soil, sand for leveling) and must be imported from neighboring provinces. In the long term, there needs to be research and orientation for the development of alternative, green, and sustainable materials.

The booths introduced a number of new construction materials and recycled construction materials that have been researched, developed and used in recent times.

At the workshop, Vice President of the Vietnam Association of Building Materials Pham Van Bac shared that the development of Vietnam's building materials industry has been gradually applying scientific and technological advances, effectively using resources, protecting the environment; ensuring economic security; proactively integrating internationally; forming basic conditions for a green economy , low solid waste, low carbon emissions.

The development of construction materials has been focused more on sustainable development and environmental protection. Faced with the increasing demands for the development of the materials industry in general and the construction materials industry in particular, many new products have been born, these materials are considered advanced solutions to overcome the limitations of traditional materials.

In construction and building, new types of construction materials play a very important role and are widely used because of their many advantages such as load-bearing capacity, light weight, durability over time, energy saving, etc. New materials are designed to meet the increasingly high demands of modern life.

"Therefore, it plays an increasingly important role in the development and innovation of many areas of life, contributing to building a more convenient and sustainable society" - Vice President of the Vietnam Association of Construction Materials Pham Van Bac acknowledged.

Within the framework of the workshop program, Hanoi Department of Construction coordinated with construction material manufacturers and suppliers to organize an exhibition area, introducing a number of new construction material products and recycled construction materials that have been researched, developed and used in recent times.
