Seawater in Concrete Mix (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In the near future, many parts of the world will suffer from a shortage of freshwater. Effective use of seawater in concrete production could therefore become a crucial technology. Seawater in Concrete Mix provides a detailed overview of the fundamental knowledge of concrete engineering that is essential for the usage of seawater-mixed concrete.

According to the worldwide standard for reinforced concrete (RC), freshwater is typically used in concrete mixing rather than seawater. Yet a potential exists for the extensive use of seawater in concrete, especially with the addition of ground granulated blast-furnace slag, fly ash, or other mineral admixtures. The recent trend toward performance-based design makes this alternative more viable.

The text is ideal for graduate students, researchers, concrete engineers, and all civil engineers who deal with concrete for infrastructure.

Hidenori Hamada is Professor of Kyushu University, Japan.

Nobuaki Otsuki is Professor Emeritus of Tokyo Institute of Technology and was Chairman of the JCI Technical Committee on the use of seawater in concrete.

Takahiro Nishida is Senior Researcher of the Japanese National Institute of Maritime, Port and Aviation Technology.
