Drawing together a solid body of knowledge, two international concrete experts present this authoritative reference work, surveying the properties and behaviour of concrete at high temperatures, from ambient to melting. Khoury and Majorana comprehensively assess the material aspects of concrete behaviour under four main themes: microstructure properties moisture migration applications. Built on leading-edge research from offshore concrete uses and the nuclear industry, "Effect of Heat on Concrete" ""distils a wealth of information into this practically relevant reference for researchers and engineers responsible for the design and construction of concrete structures where the temperature may lead to significant differences in the performance of the concrete.
