  • - A Scientific Approach
    by Francois De Larrard
    £57.99 - 236.49

    Provides a comprehensive theory for the rational design of concrete mixtures. This text aims to allow the user to achieve an internationally applicable mastery of concrete material through the use of computer software.

  • - Fundamentals and civil engineering practice
    by Arnon Bentur, Neal Berke & Sidney Diamond
    £60.99

    Poor durability of concrete is a major cause of problems in modern building and civil engineering structures in all countries: the annual cost of investigating and repairing deteriorating reinforced concrete structures runs into many millions of

  • by Mark Alexander & Sidney Mindess
    £57.99 - 200.49

    Bringing together in one volume the latest research and information, Aggregates in Concrete provides a comprehensive account of the selection and use of aggregates in concrete.

  • by Ireland) Richardson & Mark G. (University College Dublin
    £155.49

    Fundamentals of Durable Reinforced Concrete presents the basic aspects of concrete durability. It will be of interest to specifiers, to postgraduate researchers and to undergraduates of engineering, architecture and building services

  • by Pierre-Claude Aitcin
    £335.49

    A complete review of the fast-developing topic of high performance concrete (HPC) by one of the leading researchers in the field. It covers all aspects of HPC from materials, properties and technology to construction and testing.

  • - Testing, Interpretation and Requirements
    by Kalliopi K. Aligizaki
    £209.49

    Provides a thorough treatment of the experimental techniques used to characterize the pore structure of materials. The text presents the principles and practical applications of the techniques used, providing the theoretical background, the way to analyze experimental data, and the factors affecting the results.

  • by Canada) Aitcin & Pierre-Claude (Sherbrooke University
    £60.99 - 200.49

    Provides a fundamental understanding of Portland cement and hydraulic binders. This book demonstrates that concrete durability is closely linked to its water/binder ratio and proper curing during the first week after casting. It explains the complexity of the hydration reaction and how to make, use and cure durable and sustainable concrete.

  • by Benoit (Laval University Bissonnette
    £150.99

    This book presents the fundamentals of concrete surface engineering, considered in view of repair and surface treatment. It is intended to serve as a leading-edge source of information for practicing engineers, architects, repair specialists, and researchers involved in concrete infrastructure maintenance. A comprehensive discussion of the various relevant topics is proposed, from concrete surface characterization to the achievement of a lasting bond, through physicochemical adhesion principles, repair / surface treatment compatibility requirements, and the various surface preparation considerations.

  • - Design and Construction
    by Mark (University of Cape Town Alexander
    £159.99

    This book provides an up-to-date survey of durability issues, with a particular focus on specification and design, and how to achieve durability in actual concrete construction. It is aimed at the practising engineer, but is also a valuable resource for graduate-level programs in universities. Along with background to current philosophies it gathers together in one useful reference a summary of current knowledge on concrete durability, includes information on modern concrete materials, and shows how these materials can be combined to produce durable concrete. The approach is consistent with the increasing focus on sustainability that is being addressed by the concrete industry, with the current emphasis on ΓÇÿdesign for durabilityΓÇÖ.
