This comprehensive book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, scholars, practitioners, educators, and enthusiasts alike, presenting a collection of cutting-edge research works that contribute significantly to the systematization and dissemination of the most recent findings on diverse topics related to building pathologies, salt attack and corrosion, durability, and service-life prediction. The book reflects numerous recent advancements in these fields, particularly in concrete structures. Designed as an overview of the current state of knowledge, this publication will greatly benefit scientists, students, professionals, lecturers, and all individuals with an interest in these subjects. Moreover, the topics covered in this book have broad applications across various scientific and engineering disciplines, including civil, materials, and mechanical engineering.
The book is organized into five distinct chapters, each dedicated to exploring different aspects of the aforementioned topics. In the first chapter, an introduction to building pathologies, including structural and hygrothermal issues, is provided. The chapter discusses the causes, mechanisms, and consequences of these pathologies, as well as the latest research efforts aimed at mitigating their effects.
Chapter two delves into the realm of salt attack and corrosion, focusing on the mechanisms by which salts and other corrosive agents degrade concrete structures. The chapter explores the effects of salt concentration, temperature, and moisture on the durability of concrete, as well as the development of protective coatings and materials to combat salt attack.
Chapter three explores the topic of durability and service-life prediction, discussing the various methods and models used to assess the performance and longevity of concrete structures. The chapter discusses the importance of considering factors such as material properties, design, construction, and maintenance in predicting service-life, and the application of these methods in real-world scenarios.
Chapter four focuses on the application of advanced technologies in the field of building pathology diagnosis and repair. The chapter discusses the use of sensors, drones, and other digital technologies to monitor and assess the condition of concrete structures, as well as the development of new repair techniques and materials that can enhance the durability and service-life of these structures.
Chapter five concludes the book by discussing the future trends and challenges in the field of building pathology diagnosis and repair. The chapter explores the emerging research areas, such as sustainable construction, smart materials, and the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning in these fields. The chapter also highlights the need for interdisciplinary collaboration and the development of standardized methodologies to ensure the effective management and repair of building structures.
In conclusion, this book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the latest research works in building pathology diagnosis and repair. The book is an invaluable resource for scientists, students, practitioners, educators, and enthusiasts alike, as it offers valuable insights into the causes, mechanisms, and solutions of building pathologies, salt attack and corrosion, durability, and service-life prediction. The topics covered in this book have broad applications across various scientific and engineering disciplines, and the use of advanced technologies and interdisciplinary collaboration is emphasized to ensure the effective management and repair of building structures.
