Concrete: Building Pathology

by Susan MacDonald (Editor)

Although there are a multitude of books on most aspects of concrete, no single book provides the non-specialist construction professional with practical, independent advice on the repair of concrete structures. This book outlines the development of concrete, its use in building construction, describes the typical decay mechanisms and how these are manifest, and outlines suitable methods of investigation for determining the most appropriate repair method.
