According to American Society of Civil Engineers, “Civil Engineers build the world’s infrastructure”. Teaching concrete technology is important for students of civil engineering domain. The invention of concrete was one of the key developments in human evolution. It allowed the construction structures that would sustain for longer periods in terms of decades if not centuries. Concrete as a sustainable building material is used to enhance the strength of the structure. It can be made water resistant so that occurrence of floods can be prevented. It can be made fire resistance too. Concrete offers structural strength and make structure durable. It is cost effective building material that can be used to insulate the sound to give better acoustic performance.
Both the theoretical and practical aspects of this course are important to study and learn about concrete technology. Students before attempting to attend the concrete testing laboratory for completing practical classes should make it a habit to study and review a book like this to have better understanding on how to do practical activities related to concrete technology in a comparative mode, so that they can discuss and suggest solutions even in actual construction projects. Having construction site experience is a must to students pursuing civil engineering studies and thus get an opportunity to observe practical aspects of concrete technology.
We sincerely believe that studying this book will provide the young buddies of civil engineering domain as students in gaining basic and little beyond the basic knowledge and little insightful knowledge on concrete technology
