Features: Concrete is the most widely used building material in modern civil and architectural engineering. Over the past century, the application technology of concrete has undergone many significant transformations and continuous breakthroughs. This book elaborates on the development history and future prospects of high-performance concrete, discussing its preparation techniques, including important technical aspects such as raw material selection and mix design. It serves as a valuable guide for departments engaged in the research, development, and construction application of high-performance concrete.
The author, Senior Engineer Zhang Mingzheng, has long been involved in the research, development, and application of concrete admixtures. In recent years, he has dedicated himself to the testing and practical engineering application of high-performance concrete. This book is a comprehensive compilation based on the author's extensive research findings and practical experience, integrating relevant literature from both domestic and international sources. It covers the development history and future prospects of high-performance concrete, as well as its preparation techniques, including key technical aspects like raw material selection and mix design.
The book also details the author's research on the JFA series superplasticizer and pumping aid, the JEA series expansive waterproofing agent, and the JDA series early-strength antifreeze agent. Additionally, it introduces the application experience of high-performance concrete formulated using these novel admixtures in large-scale engineering projects, providing a valuable guide for departments involved in the research, development, and construction application of high-performance concrete.
