内容説明

Developments in the formulation and reinforcement of concrete are of great topical interest to the construction industry worldwide, with applications in high-rise, offshore, nuclear and bridge structures, and in pre-cast concrete. This authoritative book addresses the current lack of information on the latest developments in the formulation and reinforcement of concrete in one source. The book discusses the latest types of reinforced concrete and reinforcement and includes chapters on hot weather concreting, cold weather concreting and the use of recycled materials in concrete. It presents current research from leading innovators in the field.

内容説明

Concrete is the most widely-used construction material in the world. This important book summarises the wealth of recent research on improving qualities such as durability and sustainability as well as the emergence of a new generation of specialist concretes for particular applications.A number of chapters discuss new types of concrete such as autoclaved aerated concrete, high-strength concrete, sprayed concrete, fibre-reinforced concrete, lightweight concrete, self-compacting concrete, foamed and polymer concrete, together with their characteristics and applications. Other chapters review the development of concrete especially suited for particular conditions such as radiation protection, hot weather and underwater conditions, as well as the increasingly important area of recycling.With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Developments in the formulation and reinforcement of concrete is a standard reference for civil and structural engineers.
