Innovative Materials and Techniques in Concrete Construction ACES Workshop / edited by Michael N. Fardis.

Recent years have seen enormous advances in the technology of concrete as a material, through which its strength, compactness and ductility can reach levels never dreamed of before. Thanks to these improved material properties, the strength and durability of concrete structures is greatly improved,...
