ACI SP-334:2019 "Sustainable Concrete with Beneficial Byproducts" is a special publication by the American Concrete Institute Committee 555, which focuses on improving the sustainability and eco-efficiency of concrete by utilizing various beneficial byproducts. The publication explores the use of recycled materials such as scrap tire rubber, GFRP waste, fluff, reclaimed asphalt pavements, recycled latex paint, and recycled concrete aggregate in concrete applications. The aim is to not only enhance the eco-friendliness of concrete but also to ensure that performance criteria are met economically without compromising the quality and long-term performance of concrete civil infrastructure.

The document consists of a range of papers that delve into different aspects of sustainable concrete. Topics covered include the mechanical performance of concrete incorporating slender elements from recycling GFRP waste, the utilization of reclaimed asphalt pavement aggregates in Portland cement concrete, the investigation of high-strength concrete made with metakaolin and steel fibers, and the mechanical properties of concrete made with fluff. Other papers discuss the investigation of tire-derived lightweight aggregate concrete, different mix-design procedures for recycled concrete aggregate concrete, properties of fly ash-based geopolymer mortars, self-consolidating concrete using FRAP and supplementary cementitious materials, properties and durability of polyvinyl alcohol fiber-reinforced rubber mortar, and the use of recycled additive to improve freeze-thaw durability of high fly ash content mortar. Additional topics include the durability of fly ash-based alkali-activated concrete, pervious concrete production using recycled waste latex paint, and CDW integrated management in Bogota.
