Trade Review
"The book follows a basic logic line from concrete materials to structural design, and the content is accordingly divided into three parts...Overall, the book provides good coverage of the topic and valuable information for the understanding of deterioration processes of concrete structures. The book can serve as a reference for civil and structural engineering students, as well as practising engineers". (The Structural Engineer/The Institution of Structural Engineers, May 2017)
