The overall effect is togive an integrated view of the properties of concrete so as toenable the reader to achieve the best possible construction inconcrete. In addition, the scientific basis of the informationprovided is invaluable in planning research and in theinterpretation of test results.   for sale in indiansubcontinent only new material includes such topics as self-compacting(self-consolidating) concrete, recycled concrete aggregate,thaumasite sulfate attack, compactability test, and delayedettringite formation standards, both american (astm) and british/europeanupdated to 2010 are used both si and american (imperial) units are usedthroughout includes 1500 full references to the world'sliterature on concrete and its constituents an extensive subject index containing over 6000entries provides excellent ease of reference a full name index makes it possible to establish thecontribution of individual researchers 1.
