STAR, TC 211-PAE: Performance of Cement-Based Materials in Aggressive Aqueous Environments

The focus of this State-of-the-Art Report, edited by M. Alexander, A. Bertron and N. De Belie, is on addressing issues concerning performance of cement-based materials in aggressive aqueous environments , by way of this State-of-the-Art Report.

The book represents the work of many well-known and respected authors who contributed chapters or parts of chapters. Four main themes were addressed:

I. Nature and kinetics of degradation and deterioration mechanisms of cement-based materials in aggressive aqueous environments,

II. Modelling of deterioration in such environments,

III. Test methods to assess performance of cement-based materials in such environments, and which can be used to characterise and rate relative performance and inform long term predictions,

IV. Engineering implications and consequences of deterioration in aggressive aqueous environments, and engineering approaches to the problem.
