Cement-Based Composites takes a different approach from most other
books in the field by viewing concrete as an advanced composite
material, and by considering the properties and behaviour of
cement-based materials from this stance. It deals particularly, but
not exclusively, with newer forms of cement-based materials. This
new edition takes a critical approach to the subject as well as
presenting up-to-date knowledge. Emphasis is given to
non-conventional reinforcement and design methods, problems at the
materials' interfaces and to the durability of structures. High
strength composites and novel forms of cement-based composites are
described in detail. After a basic introduction the book explores
the various components of these materials and their properties. It
then deals with mechanical properties and considers characteristics
under various loading and environmental conditions, and concludes
by examining design, optimization and economics with particular
emphasis on high-performance concretes. Researchers, graduate
students and practising engineers will find this book valuable.
