Description
Advanced Concrete Materials and Smart Technologies examines how concrete - one of the most essential materials in construction for centuries - is being revolutionized through modern technologies and innovative materials. It explores how digital tools such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data are being combined with advances in material science, including smart additives, geopolymers, and recycled aggregates, to reshape the construction industry. The book delves into topics such as 3D printing, digital fabrication methods, sustainability efforts, and the use of IoT-enabled systems for real-time structural monitoring and predictive maintenance. Packed with insights into emerging trends, it serves as a guide for engineers, researchers, and professionals aiming to embrace smarter, greener, and more efficient construction practices.
