In this book, three potential solutions to the issue of steel congestion in reinforced concrete (RC) structures are researched. The first method examines RC mixed with steel fibers. The use of steel fibers instead of stirrups results in the reduction of reinforcing congestion in a manner which is both effective in reducing the effects of congestion and practical to implement. In the second method, reinforcing congestion in RC or prestressed concrete (PC) structures is effectively reduced by t...

Eco-efficient concrete is a comprehensive guide to the characteristics and environmental performance of key concrete types.Part one discusses the eco-efficiency and life cycle assessment of Portland cement concrete, before part two goes on to consider concrete with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). Concrete with non-reactive wastes is the focus of part three, including municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) concrete, and concrete with polymeric, construction and demolition wastes (CDW). An eco-efficient approach to concrete carbonation is also reviewed, followed by an inve

Fiber Reinforced Polymers are by no means new to this world. It is only because of our fascination with petrochemical and non-petrochemical products that these wonderful materials exist. In fact, the polymers can be considered and used in the construction and construction repair. The petrochemical polymers are of low cost and are used more that natural materials. The Fiber Reinforced Polymers research is currently increasing and entails a quickly expanding field due to the vast range of both traditional and special applications in accordance to their characteristics and properties. Fiber Reinforced Polymers are related to the improvement of environmental parameters, consist of important areas of research demonstrating high potential and particularly great interest, as civil construction and concrete repair.

Concrete-polymer composites have attracted people's attention in many industries for their excellent physical and mechanical properties and durability. The peer reviewed paper in this special volume cover the following topics: materials, mix proportion design and properties of concrete-polymer composites; their characterization methods, their application and other special aspects. In these papers the authors are trying to answer what is essential in concrete-polymer composites, how to make it better for the given project and how to eventually achieve sustainable building materials. Eight keyno
