Cement-Based Composites: Materials, Mechanical Properties And Performance
An engineering book that explores the field of cement-based composites, covering both traditional concrete and advanced materials like fiber-reinforced composites and high-performance concrete. The text examines the fundamental heterogeneous structure of these materials, detailing the roles of various constituents, including mineral binders, aggregates, and specialized fiber reinforcements (steel, glass, organic) in resisting stress. Significant focus is placed on the mechanical behavior of the materials, analyzing strength, deformability, crack propagation, and failure mechanisms often through the application of fracture mechanics. Furthermore, the sources discuss material performance in diverse service conditions, addressing time-dependent issues like creep and shrinkage, resistance to impact and fatigue, and crucial durability concerns such as carbonation and freeze-thaw damage. Finally, the collection concludes by examining modern methodologies for composite mix design and optimization, particularly for achieving high-quality and sustainable construction.
