Super-High-Strength High Performance Concrete (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781138075641)

When produced correctly, concrete can be extremely strong, with high load-bearing capacity and superior durability. Another noteworthy property is the relatively low amount of energy and resources consumed during production. This volume brings together the results of a major research project exploring the properties, performance, and potential of super-high-strength high performance (SHSHP) concrete. A systematic study of the different aspects of this essential commodity as well as the future direction of concrete science and technology, this book is a valuable resource for material scientists and engineers engaged in developing better structures.
