{"product_id":"the-new-era-of-construction-alexandra-duarte-9786208388003","title":"The New Era of Construction","description":"This book explores innovations in construction that are redefining modern infrastructure, focusing on self-healing concrete, nanotechnology in materials, 3D printing and building information modeling (BIM). First, self-healing concrete, using bacteria, polymers and chemical admixtures, promises to extend the life of structures by reducing the need for repairs. Next, nanotechnology transforms materials such as concrete, improving its strength and durability with carbon nanoparticles and nanotubes, which enable self-cleaning surfaces and sensors for structural monitoring. 3D printing facilitates the creation of buildings with less waste and greater accuracy in less time, while BIM enables more collaborative, sustainable and accurate design. With an analysis of the benefits and challenges of each technology, the book presents a vision for more durable, sustainable and advanced infrastructure, emphasizing the impact of these advances in a world where construction faces the challenge of becoming ever more efficient and environmentally friendly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexandra Duarte,Nathalie Zamora,Carlos Jacomino\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 6208388007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9786208388003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Our Knowledge Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/17\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.20d","brand":"Alexandra Duarte","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446498963711,"sku":"9786208388003","price":64.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5644030b-e97d-4d61-9204-502909148dd0.jpg?v=1777225031","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-new-era-of-construction-alexandra-duarte-9786208388003","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
