This is the first book on Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC), an advanced concrete material attracting world-wide attention in both the academic community and in industry. The book presents a comprehensive coverage of the material design methodology, processing methodology, mechanical and durability properties, smart functions, and application case studies. It combines effective use of illustrations, graphical data, and tables. It de-emphasizes mathematics in favor of physical understanding. The book serves as an introduction to the subject matter, or as a reference to those conducting research in ECC. It will also be valuable to engineers who need to quickly search for relevant information in a single comprehensive text.

Over three billion metric tons of cement are produced annually worldwide, making concrete the most extensively used construction material. Self-sensing, or smart, cement allows real-time monitoring of performance through the entire service life of a concrete structure, for the detection of changing stresses, contamination, excessive temperature, gas leaks and pre-seismic activity. This is achieved by adding a very small proportion of conductive or semi-conductive fibers, such as carbon fibers to the bulk cement, making it piezoresistive, and enabling changes in the concrete’s electrical resistivity in response to shear stress and strain to be monitored. This state-of-the-art reference work presents experimental results with a realistic theoretical framework, for cement manufactures, concrete technologists and contractors as well as researchers.

The paper describes an investigation of the electrical resistivity of concrete. In particular, electrical resistance of concrete was found to increase with decreasing water-cement ratio and increasing aggregate-cement ratio and entrained air content. The results show that calculating a water-concrete ratio by volume provides a convenient way of comparing the electrical resistivity of concretes of different mix proportions. The study also demonstrates that electrical resistance can be used to measure the moisture content of concrete. Electrical resistance increases as moisture content decreases with the least rate of change within the highest range of moisture contents. Although other techniques for measuring moisture content of concrete are more accurate, the use of electrical resistance has the advantage of being a relatively simple procedure that uses inexpensive equipment.

Chloride ingress in reinforced concrete induces corrosion and consequent spilling and structural weakness, and it occurs world-wide and imposes an enormous cost. Yet it can be resisted by using test methods and relevant models for service life prediction.Resistance of Concrete to Chloride Ingress sets out current understanding of chloride transport
