In the present high technology era, rapid developments are taking place in all spheres including Concrete Technology. There exists a big gap between developments on one hand and their actual applications in the field, on the other. However, there is a strong need for a good communication network and management between the two ends, so as to enable the common man harvest full advantage of the advances made in Concrete Technology.
Amongst the building materials, Concrete is one of the costly material used for construction of Column, Beams, Slab etc. Though, this is one of strongest material and can last long but common man, normally avoids using Reinforced Concrete because of its high cost, skilled technique of construction and management.
This book discusses various aspects of concrete construction right from basic concrete technology, expert system of concrete mix design and management of construction in field. This book also describes various aspects of making the concrete construction economical and long lasting. New materials which can be used in the foundations like Geotextile are also discussed.
The book will be invaluable to Engineering Students in Civil, Architecture and Construction Technology. The book will be even more useful to researchers, consultants, practicing Engineers and Builders.
