Design and Control of Concrete Mixtures


Concrete’s versatility, durability, and economy have made it the world’s most used construction material. The United States uses about 260 million cubic meters (340 million cubic yards) of ready mixed concrete each year. It is used in highways, streets, parking lots, parking garages, bridges, high-rise buildings, dams, homes, floors, sidewalks, driveways, and numerous other applications.
Design and Control of Concrete Mixtures has been the cement and concrete industry’s primary reference on concrete technology for over 75 years. Since the first edition was published in the early 1920s, the U.S. version has been updated 14 times to reflect advances in concrete technology and to meet the growing needs of architects, engineers, builders, concrete producers, concrete technologists, instructors, and students.
