STRUCTURAL CONCRETES - ALEKSANDER ŚWITOŃSKI

Discover the fascinating world of structural concrete with the book by Aleksander Świtoński. This publication is the key to understanding how to design concrete mixes to obtain a material with properties tailored to specific applications and operating conditions. This comprehensive approach allows you to shape the concrete already at the stage of its creation, making it an ideal solution for a variety of construction projects.

• Mathematical model of shaping the concrete structure
• Relationship between structure and operational properties
• Use of the properties of concrete mix components
• Increase in concrete strength due to cement activity
• Concrete tightness at a lower water-cement ratio
• Resistance to aggressive atmospheric factors
• Rational use of materials in concrete design

The author presents a mathematical model of shaping the concrete structure, which connects it with later operational properties. This model is based on the experimental characteristics of the components and their share in the concrete mix. This is a comprehensive and rigorous approach to the problem, which distinguishes this publication from others.

The book proves that an increase in concrete strength is possible thanks to the use of higher cement activity in the concrete mix, with unchanged binder activity. This model also shows that concretes with the same strength, but a lower water-cement ratio, are definitely tighter, which translates into less shrinkage and greater resistance to aggressive atmospheric factors.

This monograph is intended for engineers in the field of concrete structures, concrete technologists, students and scientific staff of universities and research institutes. It is an invaluable source of knowledge for anyone who wants to explore the secrets of designing and using structural concrete.
