Explores the effects of carbonation and microstructure in cementitious materials, including competition of mechanisms, change in porosity, and diffusion processes.
Explores replacing portland cement with various materials to enhance concrete performance and discusses the properties of slag cement, fly ash cement, and pozzolans.
Explores various types of concrete shrinkage, including chemical, heat, and plastic shrinkage, as well as the influence of internal and external parameters.
Explores concrete degradation, focusing on corrosion, freeze-thaw damage, and alkali-aggregate reaction, with prevention methods and repair techniques.
