From parking garages to roads and bridges, to structural concrete,
this comprehensive book describes the causes, effects and remedies
for concrete wear and failure. Hundreds of clear illustrations show
users how to analyze, repair, clean and maintain concrete
structures for optimal performance and cost effectiveness. This
book is an invaluable reference for planning jobs, selecting
materials, and training employees.
With information organized in all-inclusive units for easy
reference, this book is ideal for concrete specialists, general
contractors, facility managers, civil and structural engineers, and
architects.
