Introduction / Caijun Shi and Y.L. Mo -- High performance concrete / Caijun Shi, Y.L. Mo and H.B. Dhonde -- High performance fiber reinforced cement composites / Antoinie E. Naaman -- High performance steel material and structures for earthquake resistant buildings / Keh-Chyuan Tsai [and others] -- Advanced fiber reinforced polymer composites / L.C. Holloway -- Enhancing the performance of masonry structures / Richard E. Klingner -- geosynthetics-- characteristics and applications / P.E. Stevenson -- Coatings and sealers / C. Vipulanandan and M. Isaac -- Smart materials and structures / D.D.L. Chung [and others].

Summary: This book describes a number of high-performance construction materials, including concrete, steel, fiber-reinforced cement, fiber-reinforced plastics, polymeric materials, geosynthetics, masonry materials and coatings. It discusses the scientific bases for the manufacture and use of these high-performance materials. Testing and application examples are also included, in particular the application of relatively new high-performance construction materials to design practice. Most books dealing with construction materials typically address traditional materials only rather than high-performance m.
