FOREWORDL

Dvorkin and o Dvorkin

Modern concrete science is dynamically developed applied science which subjectis studying of structure and properties of the composite materials received atg of binders and aggregateshe primary goal of concrete science is working out the theory of producing ofth given properties, maintenance of their working capacity andnecessary durability in structures and constructions at influence of servicefactorsConsidering many-sided nature of concrete science, huge luggage of theoreticalworkings out and the practical experience, saved up by present time, thestatement of concrete science essentials is an uneasy problemBy preparation of the book authors pursued the goal to shine well and at thesame time without excessive simplification such sections of concrete science asstructure of a cement stone and concrete, its basic properties and types, designof concrete mixtures Principal views of noncement concrete and mortars areconsidered in short alsole offered book as authors hope, can be used not only by students of buildingspecialities of universities, but also to be useful to post-graduate studentsscientists, a wide range of technologistsAuthors are grateful to reviewers: Prof P Komohov, Prof P

INTRODUCTIONSHORT HISTORICAL ESSAYL

Dvorkin and o Dvorkin

Concrete science is a science about concrete, its types, structure andproperties, environmental impact on it Concrete science develops in process ofdevelopment of construction technology, improving of experimental methods ofesearchConcrete application in civil engineering can be divided conventionally intosome stages1 The antique2 Application of a hydraulic lime and roman cement3

Portland cement technology formation and plain concrete application4 Mass application of concrete for manufacturing of reinforced concreteconstructions5 Application of concrete for manufacturing of prestressed and precastreinforced concrete constructions6 Wide use of concrete of the various types modified by admixtures
