Synopsis

Materials Science in Construction explains the science behind the properties and behavior of construction's most fundamental materials (metals, cement and concrete, polymers, timber, bricks and blocks, glass and plaster).In particular, the critical factors affecting in situ materials are examined, such as deterioration and the behavior and durability of materials under performance.An accessible, easy-to-follow approach makes this book ideal for all diploma and undergraduate students on construction-related courses taking a module in construction materials.
