Alternative Cementitious Materials for Self-Compacting Concrete provides a detailed review on the various properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) and how they are affected by the use, of by-products and waste materials in concrete production. The book provides a fair comparison on the application and use of various types of materials in SCC. In addition, it includes the latest data and detailed information on modeling and soft computing techniques for the estimation of various properties of SCC as well as detailed investigations on microstructural characterization.This book will be a valuable reference resource for materials scientists, and civil and structural engineers working in construction materials and self-compacting concrete, as well as for those working in the cement production and non-hazard waste industries.

Includes detailed information on modeling and computational techniques for estimating SCC propertiesProvides comprehensive information on the use of waste materials and by-products in self-compacting concreteCovers comprehensive information on the different properties of SCC

Computational intelligence (CI) in concrete technology has not yet been fully explored worldwide because of some limitations in data sets. This book discusses the selection and separation of data sets, performance evaluation parameters for different types of concrete and related materials, and sensitivity analysis related to various CI techniques. Fundamental concepts and essential analysis for CI techniques such as artificial neural network, fuzzy system, support vector machine, and how they work together for resolving real-life problems, are explained.

Features:

It is the first book on this fast-growing research field.

It discusses the use of various computation intelligence techniques in concrete technology applications.

It explains the effectiveness of the methods used and the wide range of available techniques.

It integrates a wide range of disciplines from civil engineering, construction technology, and concrete technology to computation intelligence, soft computing, data science, computer science, and so on.

It brings together the experiences of contributors from around the world who are doing research in this field and explores the different aspects of their research.

The technical content included is beneficial for researchers as well as practicing engineers in the concrete and construction industry.
