Abstract

ICE Themes Smart Concrete brings together fascinating insights into this new and evolving field of concrete. In defining smart concrete as concrete that is capable of responding automatically to the actions imposed upon it, research has sought to develop concrete that is stronger, more sustainable and resilient. This assists the construction industry with improved whole life performance of concrete structures. This book highlights the very best research that has occurred in the field including issues surrounding self-curing, self-healing properties and the addition of phase-change materials and carbon to concrete. It has been compiled from ICE Publishing content by two leading experts in the field, and will be an ideal for researchers and students seeking an overview of the latest research on this topic.
