Concrete & Cement

Cement and concrete are of great interest to the construction and civil engineering communities. This study provides an appreciation of the complex nature of these materials and a realization that most of the failures involving concrete constructions are preventable...

Supplementary cementing materials and other mineral admixturesenhance the workability of fresh concrete and the durability of hardened concrete. This comprehensive reference for senior undergraduate and graduate engineering students in cement and concrete and for cement and concrete practitioners co..

This book takes a different approach from most other books in the field by viewing concrete as an advanced composite material. It focuses particularly on newer forms of cement-based materials. Emphasis is given to non-conventional reinforcement and design methods, problems at the materials’ interfac..

The contributions to EURO-C 2018 review and discuss research advancements in computational modelling of cementitious materials, and assess the applicability and robustness of methods and models for the analysis of concrete, (fibre-)reinforced and prestressed concrete structures and masonry structure..

This book discusses how computer-based systems can help predict the composition of trial mixes. The author has spent 20 years developing systems which can save both time and money...

A new edition of a well-known and respected book. This book provides a thorough guide for structural engineers on the use of concrete masonry. The new edition is fully updated in line with British standards and Eurocodes...

This new edition provides comprehensive, readily understandable assistance to concrete producers in the design and control of their product. It shows how to apply the principles with or without elaborate systems and achieve competitive mix designs and close quality control without either excessive e..

Concrete Mixture Proportioning provides a comprehensive theory for the rational design of concrete mixtures. It allows the user to achieve an internationally applicable mastery of concrete material through the use of computer software...

This straightforward book serves as a practical guide to engineers on the processes to be followed in commissioning a concrete repair. It stresses the need to fully understand the cause, extent, and location of the problem by appropriate in situ and laboratory testing, and outlines the steps to a su..
