Collection of selected, peer reviewed papers from the 14th International Conference on Non-Conventional Materials and Technologies Construction Materials and Technologies for Sustainability (14th NOCMAT 2013) March 24-27, 2013, Joao Pessoa, Brazil. The 84 papers are grouped as follows: Chapter 1: Bamboo and Wood; Chapter 2: Earthen Materials and Constructions;Chapter 3: Cement, Mortar and Concrete;Chapter 4: Standards, Guidelines and Policy Issues; Chapter 5: Composites Reinforced with Vegetable Fibers; Chapter 6: Structural Integrity and Durability;Chapter 7: Advances in Research Methodologies and Material Testing; Chapter 8: Recycling of Industrial, Agricultural and Urban Waste; Chapter 9: Affordable Housing Using Low Cost Energy Saving Materials Keyword: Bamboo and Wood; Earthen Materials and Constructions; Cement, Mortar and Concrete; Standards, Guidelines and Policy Issues; Composites Reinforced with Vegetable Fibers; Structural Integrity and Durability; Advances in Research Methodologies and Material Testing; Recycling of Industrial, Agricultural and Urban Waste; Affordable Housing Using Low Cost Energy Saving Materials The 82 papers presented during the March 2013 conference explore new materials manufactured from bamboo, dirt, wood, cement, mortar, concrete, vegetable fibers, agricultural waste, and urban waste. The primarily Brazilian researchers investigate the mechanical behavior of bamboo under compression along the culm, new ways to bond bamboo with concrete, the properties of lime-based mortars made from kaolin waste, the reinforcement of adobe walls with toad rush mesh, and the grinding of residual sugar cane bagasse ash. Other topics include building components made from recycled plastics, peanut husk panels made with castor oil polyurethane adhesive, pastes of plaster with latex of euphorbia tirucalli, and the use of demolition waste in lateritic concrete. — Composite materials— Environmental engineering— Green engineering— Materials science— Organic materials— Textiles
