Invited Keynote Speakers and Field Editors List (Alphabetical Name List)
Professor John Kinuthia (Accepted)
John Kinuthia is a Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of South Wales, in South Wales, United Kingdom. He is a Chartered Civil Engineer (CEng), a Fellow of the Institution of Civil Engineers (FICE), a member of the Chartered Institution of Highway and Transportation (CIHT), and is a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (SFHEA) of UK. He has worked in industry in both public and private sectors, before joining academia. He is former Head of Department of Civil Engineering at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) in Kenya, before moving to UK. He is currently the Head of The Advanced Materials Testing Centre (AMTeC) at the University of South Wales, where he manages research, consultancy and testing materials. His materials laboratories are accredited by both the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) and by EU as a Notified Body for testing materials under the Construction Products Regulation No 305/2011, appropriate for CE marking for global marketability of construction products. His research interests include sustainable development of infrastructure, especially by the utilisation of natural, industrial and agricultural waste streams in both soil and cement-based cementitious systems. He has successfully supervised 15 PhDs, and over 100 publications in journal, book and conference publications. He has a Google Scholar rating of h-index of 25, iH10 Index of 40, with 1952 citations. His research work aims to reduce the use of traditional cementitious binders such as lime and Portland cement, whose manufacture contributes enormously to atmospheric emissions. In accordance to this theme, Prof. Kinuthia’s topic in the key note speech at the International Conference on Eco-sustainable Construction Materials (ICESCM-3) is based on the concept of Unfired Earth-based Eco materials in construction.
Title: Unfired Earth-based Eco Materials in Construction
Professor Margareth da Silva MAGALHÃES (Accepted)
Margareth da Silva Magalhães is Assistant Professor of Construction materials in the State University of Rio de Janeiro and Professor of advanced technology of the concrete and new technologies in cement-based materials (fiber reinforced cementitious composites, high performance concrete and self-compacting concrete) in the Civil Engineering Postgraduate Program, PGECIV, State University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Graduate at Engenharia Civil from Federal University of Paraiba (1996), master's at Civil Engineering from Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (1999) and Ph.d. at Civil Engineering from Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (2010). Post-doctoral researcher fellowship at COPPE, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro in partnership with Technische Universitat, Dresden-Germany, from 2010 to 2011, and at University of Padova, Italy, from 2016 to 2017. Selected for several research grant and fellowships (2010-2018). Participant in national and international research projects (2010-2018).

Title: Effect of Curing and Mineral Additions on the Performance of Self-Compacting Concrete under Hot Climate
Abstract: The performance of self-compacting concrete (SCC) can be affected by climatic conditions especially hot climate. The use of mineral additions could mitigate some of the adverse effects. This paper analyses the combined effects of various types of mineral additives and hot-dry environment on the properties of self-compacting mortar (SCM). Some mixtures were prepared and tested at fresh and hardened states. The minerals additions include glass blast furnace slag and metakaolin. Specimens were stored in water for an initial curing period of 0, 1, 3, 7 and 28 days (T=20±2 °C and RH=100%), before being exposed to natural hot-dry climate in a North African desert region (T=22-42 °C and RH=8-33%). The fresh properties were investigated by mini slump flow and mini V-funnel. Compressive strength, flexural strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) were measured at 28 days. The results show an enhancement in hardened properties of SCM with increasing water curing period. A water-curing period for 7 days appears to be necessary for improving compressive and flexural strengths and UPV. Metakaolin seems to exhibit the best performance.
