THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE AND CURRENT GUIDE TO THE PROPERTIES, BEHAVIOR, AND TECHNOLOGY OF CONCRETE

This thoroughly updated edition contains new information on:

Recently built construction projects worldwide
Shrinkage-reducing admixtures
Self-consolidating concrete, pervious concrete, internal curing, and other cutting-edge innovations
Modeling of ice formation and alkali-aggregate reaction in concrete
Environmental impact of concrete

Each chapter begins with a preview of the contents and ends with a self-test and a guide for further reading. More than 300 drawings and photographs illustrate the topics discussed in this definitive text on concrete.

Comprehensive coverage includes:

Microstructure of concrete
Strength
Dimensional stability
Durability
Hydraulic cements
Aggregates
Admixtures

Mer om författaren

Paulo J. M. Monteiro (Berkeley, CA), professor and group leader of the Structural Engineering Mechanics and Materials Group, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of California at Berkeley, received his engineering degree from the University of Sao Paulo and master and Ph.D. degrees from U.C. Berkeley. Dr. Monteiro's professional experience includes working on a number of projects using mass concrete. Recent projects include working with roller-compacted concrete and architectural concrete. At U.C. Berkeley, he and his students are creating micromechanical models, characterizing deleterious reactions in concrete, and developing new microscopic techniques, such as low-temperature scanning electron microscopy, soft x-ray microscopy, and direction cooling. Dr. Monteiro has published over one hundred articles in archival journals.
