Low-Clinker Cements in Structural Concrete is an area of active development in smart and resilient infrastructure engineering,
with evidence that has accumulated unevenly across its component questions. We review the current evidence base for low-clinker
cements in structural concrete, spanning methodological, implementation, governance, and cost dimensions, focusing on where
practice has converged and where it continues to vary, and set out the practical considerations relevant to an agency considering
its adoption. We conclude that selective, context-specific use is best supported by the evidence currently available, rather than
uniform adoption or avoidance.
