About this listen

 A comprehensive overview of recent advancements and research in concrete technology. They describe the engineering properties and testing results of numerous composite and unconventional materials, including the use of industrial by-products like biomass ash, recycled rubber, and natural fibers to create lightweight or high-performance mixes. A central focus is placed on enhancing fundamental properties such as compressive strength, long-term durability, and permeability under various exposure conditions. Several studies explore specialized applications, including the development of foamed concrete, photocatalytic paving blocks, and underwater concrete using anti-washout admixtures. Additionally, the texts detail advanced structural reinforcement techniques, such as the use of FRP sheets and Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) for strengthening existing structures. Finally, computational and analytical methods, including the application of Genetic Algorithms (GA) for optimizing frame design, are presented.
