The second edition of the ICE Handbook of Concrete Durability is a comprehensive and practical reference for professionals involved in the design and maintenance of concrete structures of all types. Written by a team of international experts, the book combines a thorough yet accessible exposition of the principles of durable concrete design with a hands-on approach to its application in construction projects.
The handbook aims to help readers understand the likely causes of deterioration in concrete structures, facilitate the selection of appropriate materials, and develop designs that minimize the risks arising from deterioration mechanisms.
Extensively revised and updated throughout, this edition includes four new chapters, covering non-destructive testing and structural health monitoring, as well as lessons learned by expert witnesses involved in construction disputes. Additionally, new case studies of durability problems and solutions are presented, providing real-world examples of the challenges and solutions encountered in the field.
Coverage of the handbook spans various aspects of concrete durability, including physical and chemical deterioration mechanisms, durability of concretes made with Portland and non-Portland cement-based binders and recycled demolition aggregates, alternative materials to improve concrete durability, performance-based specifications, modeling the effects of deterioration mechanisms, improving construction processes for better durability, and repair methods.
The ICE Handbook of Concrete Durability is an invaluable guide for construction professionals, including design engineers, consultants, and contractors, as well as postgraduate students on courses in concrete technology and the design of concrete structures. Its comprehensive coverage, practical approach, and expert insights make it a must-have resource for anyone involved in the construction and maintenance of durable concrete structures.
