About Course

Concrete Technology Advanced tutorial.

This course explores the materials science of concrete and attempts to understand concrete behavior from a fundamental perspective. The first part of the course discusses the structure and properties of concrete-making materials. This is followed by a mixture proportioning of high-performance concrete and a study of selected topics regarding fresh and hardened concrete behavior. The final part of the course deals with long-term performance issues related to creep, shrinkage, and durability of concrete.

INTENDED AUDIENCE: Post-graduate students and final year undergraduate students
