Auteur :Zong jin li Edition :John willeyPages: 521 Format: pdf Language:EnglishOver the past two decades concrete has enjoyed a renewed level of research and testing, resulting in the development of many new types of concrete. Through the use of various additives, production techniques and chemical processes, there is now a great degree of control over the properties of specific concretes for a wide range of applications. New theories, models and testing techniques have also been developed to push the envelope of concrete as a building material. There is no current textbook which brings all of these advancements together in a single volume. This book aims to bridge the gap between the traditional concrete technologies and the emerging state-of-the-art technologies which are gaining wider use.Advanced Concrete Technology" is not only an excellent text book that meets educational needs for graduate and senior undergraduate students, but it is also a useful reference book that provides critical guidance for professional engineers in their practice.
