Eco-efficient Repair and Rehabilitation of Concrete Infrastructures, Second Edition provides an updated state-of-the-art review on the latest advances in this important research field. The first section is brought fully up-to-date and focuses on deterioration assessment methods. Section two contains brand new chapters on innovative concrete repair and rehabilitation materials including: fly ash-based alkali-activated repair materials for concrete exposed to aggressive environments; repairing concrete structures with alkali-activated metakaolin mortars; concrete with micro encapsulated self-healing materials; concrete repaired with bacteria; concrete structures repaired with engineered cementitious composites; concrete repaired by electrodeposition; the assessment of concrete after repair operations and durability of concrete repair.
The final section has also been amended to include six new chapters on design, Life-cycle cost analysis and life-cycle assessment. These chapters include maintenance strategies for concrete structures; a comparison of different repair methods; life cycle assessment of the effects of climate change on bridge deterioration; life-cycle-cost benefits of cathodic protection of concrete structures; life-cycle cost analyses for concrete bridges exposed to chlorides and life-cycle analysis of repair of concrete pavements.
The book will be an essential reference resource for materials scientists, civil and structural engineers, architects, structural designers and contractors working in the construction industry.
