This book describes a number of high-performance construction materials, including concrete, steel, fiber-reinforced cement, fiber-reinforced plastics, polymeric materials, geosynthetics, masonry materials and coatings. It discusses the scientific bases for the manufacture and use of these high-performance materials. Testing and application examples are also included, in particular the application of relatively new high-performance construction materials to design practice.Most books dealing with construction materials typically address traditional materials only rather than high-performance materials and, as a consequence, do not satisfy the increasing demands of today's society. On the other hand, books dealing with materials science are not engineering-oriented, with limited coverage of the application to engineering practice. This book is thus unique in reflecting the great advances made on high-performance construction materials in recent years.This book is appropriate for use as a textbook for courses in engineering materials, structural materials and civil engineering materials at the senior undergraduate and graduate levels. It is also suitable for use by practice engineers, including construction, materials, mechanical and civil engineers.

Over the past few years, concrete technology has advanced quite dramatically thanks to the use of a great variety of additives and admixtures, which have paved the way for the effective development of new-generation concrete mixtures. Among these additives and admixtures, nanomaterials used in construction materials such as paste, mortar, and concrete mixtures have become very popular recently. Much of the previous attention in regard to the utilization of nanomaterials in construction materials was specifically devoted to the characterization of their fresh-state, hydration, microstructure, pore structure, mechanical, transport, and durability properties. However, research into the tailoring of multi-functional properties of construction materials (especially cementitious) with the use of nanomaterials is still in its infancy. Recent Advances in Nano-Tailored Multi-Functional Cementitious Composites aims to capture recent major scientific advances and the current state of the art in multi-functional cementitious composites developed with nanomaterials. The book will provide researchers, engineers, and other stakeholders with an insight into future directions of multi-functional capabilities of cementitious composites.

Inorganic bonded fiber composites consist of building materials such as wood-cement board or wood-gypsum board. The materials contain a wood fiber or particle element that is bonded within an inorganic mineral matrix. Aged wood waste frequently signifies better than virgin wood in this application. Degradation of wood fiber's hemicellulose improves wood-cement bonding strength. These weather and fire-resistant products are produced for sub-flooring panelboard, roofing shakes or shingles, tiles, siding, fencing, cladding, or building blocks. Over the last years promising cement bonded wood composites for structural purposes have evolved. Durability, toughness, high dimensional stability, resistance against environmental influences such as biodegradation or weathering but also availability of the raw material as well as economic factors are features which can make cement-bonded composites superior to conventionally bonded composites. Many composites have evolved in the last decades, e.g. cement-bonded wood wool boards, cement- bonded particleboards, and fiber-reinforced cement boards. These CBCs are used for thermal as well as acoustic insulation purposes and consist of particles of different sizes (strands, flakes, chips, fibers). Sustainable and Nonconventional Construction Materials using Inorganic Bonded Fiber Composites gives a comprehensive review of the innovative research concerned with building components based on inorganic bonded composites. It looks at both natural fibers as reinforcing elements and substitute inorganic binders based on agricultural and industrial wastes. This book reviews the relationship of diverse parameters, including density and particle size on mechanical and physical properties of cement bonded composites. It also focuses on the significance and functions of fibrous composites as construction materials and components. Covering the significance and characterization of non-conventional cementitious composites, this book will be of immense helpful to students, researchers and engineers interested in research, development, and innovation on inorganic bonded fiber composites.
