It will be assumed that all are familiar with what good concrete is including methods of handling the same during placing as well as curing and testing.

Concrete Structures

2016
Implementation of Non-destructive Evaluation (NDE) procedures in concrete structures seems to be the only way towards a safe and economic infrastructure management. Since concrete structures have reasonably ceased to be regarded as maintenance-free, periodic inspection is deemed necessary.

Historic Concrete: From Concrete Repair to Concrete Conservation

2013
Concrete like materials were already applied during the Roman Empire. After the decline of the Roman Empire, a wide scale application of concrete only reappeared in the 19th century. Here lies also the origin of modern (reinforced) concrete. Since then, both concrete application and composition have significantly changed.

Concrete and Reinforced Concrete Behaviour

2013
This chapter describes briefly the most important mechanical properties of concrete, reinforcement and reinforced concrete elements in a static and dynamic regime. In addition, bond-slip between reinforcement and concrete is discussed. Attention is laid on a size effect in concrete and reinforced concrete elements.
