Full Description
Alternative Construction Materials for Structures and Bridges investigates a timely topic as there is, in the current, ever-changing environmental scenario, a substantial need for accomplishing sustainable structural systems that also exhibit robustness and resilience. Researchers, students, and the structural engineering community of practitioners will find in this volume novel ideas to improve the reliability of new constructions and extend the service life of existing structural components through non-conventional materials which also play a crucial role in the minimization of maintenance and rehabilitation frequency, extent, and costs. The volume discusses state-of-the-art subjects, such as high-performance concrete, lightweight concrete, self-consolidating rubberized concrete, shape memory alloys, non-metallic reinforcement, and other advanced composites. It presents a comprehensive overview of the performance of these materials, including mechanical properties, structural responses, durability, failure mechanisms, lifecycle analysis, and design recommendations, thus creating a compelling resource with the purpose of grounding its readers' specialized understanding and driving the application of sought-after knowledge to practical endeavors.
