World is faced to increasing number of natural disasters and to increasing economical and social problems resulting in increasing migration of people, terrorism etc. The structures for sustainable future should be better prepared for the new conditions in a changing world. Concrete is due to its properties the most used man made material and gradually becomes a building material suitable for design of sustainable structures with high potential for needed environmental impact reduction. The use of advanced concrete technologies for new types of structures thus represents high potential for further development of built environment towards sustainability and resiliency.
