Synopsis

As a fundamental building material in modern times, concrete has been subject to continual development. It has evolved from a specific mixture of basic elements, i.e., hydraulic cement, water, and aggregates, to become a modern high-performance material—a material designed to respond to the environment and in some versions to preserve it. This book reflects the state of the art in regard to concrete mix proportions. As such, it focuses on the innovative high-performance concretes. These kinds of concrete have out-standing properties such that it can utilize and become versatile by its characteristics. This book is for readers who want to become well-versed in the most important current practices in the field of novel concretes. The book will be useful for students, researchers, concrete scientists and technologists, and practicing engineers. Each chapter focuses on a specific modern mix proportions that are obtained and designed from recent research findings and patents published in the most well-known and reputable publications.
