a practical guide to the design of durable concrete structures
1 online resource (xiv, 585 pages) : illustrations
This is a comprehensive, practical guide for engineers involved in designing concrete structures of all types. It combines a thorough but accessible exposition of the principles of durable concrete design with a practical, hands-on approach to its application in construction projects.
