Download or read book Ideals in Concrete written by Cor Wagenaar and published by Nai010 Publishers. This book was released on 2004 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can there still be talk of a shared culture in the 'Family of Europe, ' or are the East and West estranged? This question is the main theme of this beautifully designed book that provides, through images and text, a critical examination of Eastern and Western European cities in light of the 2004 unification. In planning euphoria and the building of a completely new society based on rational and scientific principles, we can glimpse a mirroring of the ideas and views of Communist politicians, architects and urban planners. The city is used here as a vehicle for the exploration of these key issues

Book excerpt: Nonconventional Concrete Technologies: Renewal of the Highway Infrastructure identifies research and development opportunities in innovative, nonconventional materials and processes that have the potential to accelerate the construction process, improve the durability of highway pavement and bridges, and enhance the serviceability and longevity of new construction under adverse conditions.
Download or read book Concrete Abstract Algebra written by Niels Lauritzen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-10-16 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concrete Abstract Algebra develops the theory of abstract algebra from numbers to Gröbner bases, whilst taking in all the usual material of a traditional introductory course. In addition there is a rich supply of topics like cryptography, factoring algorithms for integers, quadratic residues, finite fields, factoring algorithms for polynomials and systems of non-linear equations. A special feature is that Gröbner bases do not appear as an isolated example. They are fully integrated as a subject that can be successfully taught in an undergraduate context. Lauritzen's approach to teaching abstract algebra is based on an extensive use of examples, applications and exercises. The basic philosophy is that inspiring, non-trivial applications and examples give motivation and ease the learning of abstract concepts. This book is built on several years of experience teaching introductory abstract algebra at Aarhus, where the emphasis on concrete and inspiring examples has improved student performance significantly. Solutions to the exercises are available to lecturers from [email protected].
Download or read book Concrete written by Peter Collins and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2004 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Collins provides a thorough history of the new 19th century-material and goes on to examine the theories on its architectural expression, focusing on the determining role of the reinforced concrete frame. He argues that the seminal French architect, Auguste Perret, provides the first rational and effective expression of classical principles in modern construction. First published in 1959 and out of print since 1975, this new edition includes several additional essays on Perret by Peter Collins.

Download or read book Binders for Durable and Sustainable Concrete written by Pierre-Claude Aïtcin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2007-08-07 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linking theory to practice, this book provides a better fundamental understanding of Portland cement and hydraulic binders which is necessary to make better concrete. It has been clearly demonstrated that concrete durability is closely linked to its water/binder ratio and proper curing during the first week after casting. In this rigorously presented work, Pierre-Claude Aïtcin explains the complexity of the hydration reaction and how to make, use and cure durable and sustainable concrete. This book also details the problems with Portland cement composition at present and outlines the concept of an ideal hydraulic binder which is technically and ecologically efficient, as well as being long-lasting and robust. Binders for Durable and Sustainable Concrete is a practical and innovative reference text which will be particularly relevant to engineers and chemists working in the Portland cement, concrete and admixture industries. This book will also be of interest to academics and graduate-level students in Civil Engineering departments who specialize in Portland cement and concrete technology.
