Concrete is a composite material that is composed of coarse and fine construction aggregate bonded together with fluid cement that hardens over time. The construction aggregate is mixed with water and dry cement, to form fluid slurry which is easy to pour and mold into shapes. The cement forms a hard matrix by reacting with water and other ingredients. This matrix binds together the materials into a durable stone-like material which has many uses. Additives like pozzolans can be added in the mixture in order to improve its physical properties. Concrete is the most frequently used building material. It must be produced carefully since it is time sensitive. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to concrete and concrete structures. The readers would gain knowledge that would broaden their perspective about this field. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
