Description - Interfacial Transition Zone in Concrete by J.C. Maso

Over recent years many research studies in the field of cement science have focused on the behaviour of the interfaces between the various components of - aggregates, cement paste, fibres and so on. Advanced techniques from other areas of materials science are being applied to the complex materials found in cement and concretes, and this book provides a significant survey of the present state of the art. It has been written by members of RILEM Technical Committee 108 ICC, who are leading international figures in this field, drawing contributions from Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, South Africa, UK and USA. Part One details the microstructure of the interfacial transition zone, its formation and the experimental tools that have been used for its identification. Part Two covers the mechanical and physical properties of the interfacial transition zone itself and Part Three deals with the influence of the transition zone on the properties of the composite (concrete). With over 400 references, researchers and other specialists working in the same field will find the book a valuable resource and overview.
