This book focuses on civil engineering materials and nanotechnology.
Highlighting recent advances in the field of nano-engineered
cementitious composites, it discusses their key principles, design and
fabrication, testing and characterization, performance and mechanisms,
as well as applications. Future developments and remaining challenges
are also outlined.
Nano-engineered cementitious composites are exceptionally strong,
durable and offer multifunctional/smart performance that differs
considerably from that of normal cementitious composites. Providing
valuable insights into these composites' future development, the book
offers an essential source of information, inspiration, theory and
practical guidance for developing sustainable cementitious composites.
As such, it will benefit researchers, scientists and engineers in the
fields of civil engineering materials and nanotechnology alike.
