Features: This book is part of the "Brief Civil Engineering Series." Based on an overview of the basic concepts and principles of expansive concrete and high-performance concrete, this book proposes the concept of high-performance expansive concrete. It comprehensively and systematically introduces the fundamental concepts and principles of high-performance expansive concrete, full calculation mix design methods, mechanical properties and expansion behavior, hydration mechanisms and microstructure, performance and mechanisms under negative temperature conditions, durability issues, and more. It proposes a seamless crack-resistant design method for high-performance expansive concrete and introduces typical engineering applications in various fields. This book can serve as a reference for researchers, designers, and construction personnel engaged in civil engineering and building materials research, as well as for faculty and students in relevant disciplines at universities.
