About this Book:

Fully revised to include the latest advances in concrete technology, Concrete: Microstructure, Properties and Materials provides complete details on the microstructure-property relationship approach to provide scientific explanation for the strength and durability of concrete. This in-depth resource discusses the microstructure and properties of hardened concrete; concrete-making materials and concrete processing and current developments in concrete technology, mechanics and nondestructive testing methods.

Key Features:

Inclusion of recently built or ongoing construction projects worldwide

Information on shrinkage-reducing admixtures

Coverage of the latest advances in concrete technology - self-consolidating concrete, nanotechnology of concrete, shotcrete, expansive cement and concrete for nuclear radiation

Details on modeling of ice formation and alkali-aggregate reaction in concrete
