Description for Innovative Materials and Techniques in Concrete Construction
Hardback. Recent years have seen enormous advances in the technology of concrete as a material. In this book, these advances are highlighted by the top experts in the field who hold prominent positions in the International Federation for Structural Concrete (fib). Editor(s): Fardis, Michael N. Num Pages: 394 pages, 35 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: TNC; TNK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 23. Weight in Grams: 754.
Recent years have seen enormous advances in the technology of concrete as a material, through which its strength, compactness and ductility can reach levels never dreamed of before. Thanks to these improved material properties, the strength and durability of concrete structures is greatly improved, their weight and dimensions reduced, the scope of concrete as a structural material is widened and – despite the higher material costs – overall economy is possible, with positive impacts on sustainability as well. Similar advances are underway in reinforcing materials, notably high strength steel and fibre-reinforced polymers, and in the way they are combined with ... Read more
