Sobre este producto
- Mastering Concrete, adopts best engineering practices without reliance on specific codes of practice but rather focusing on harmonized methodologies across various standards globally. It offers invaluable insights into onsite practical applications, encourages innovation and emphasizes quality control measures tailored for contemporary challenges. Concrete making varies significantly across different regions due to variations in climate, material availability, cultural preferences, and technological advancements. Presentation of best practices rather than adhering strictly to local codes of practice, offer a broader universal perspective, since there are commonalities among concreting codes the world over, such as a focus on safety through limit state design and sustainability through responsible construction practices. This book is designed for professionals in civil and structural engineering, construction and architecture, as well as students pursuing these and related fields. It covers fundamental concepts and delves into developments in concrete technology, therefore serving as an essential resource for both traditional practices and cutting-edge advancements in concreting materials and processes, with an aim to equip readers with knowledge that is applicable to enhancement of efficiency, sustainability and safety. Concreting is a multifaceted process that requires careful consideration of materials, processes, equipment deployment and innovation. An in-depth examination of the use of various materials has been covered, including traditional components such as Portland cement, naturally occurring and crushed stone aggregates, water and admixtures as well as alternatives such as recycled aggregates and cementitious industrial by-products like fly ash and slag. The processes involved in concrete production are outlined, detailing batching methods—both manual and automated, mixing techniques that ensure uniformity and quality control and emphasis on the importance of curing methods to achieve optimal strength development and durability is made. Challenges faced during these processes are dealt with and solutions based on best practices offered. Innovations shaping the future of concreting are highlighted, including high-performance concrete mixes, self-consolidating and self-healing concrete technologies, 3D printing for rapid construction of complex structures using robotic arms, and smart concretes embedded with sensors for monitoring structural health and energy harvesting.
