Rheology of Fresh Cement-Based Materials: Fundamentals, Measurements, and Applications

Qiang Yuan,Caijun Shi (Hunan University, China),Dengwu Jiao (Hunan University, China)

This book introduces fundamentals, measurements, and applications of rheology of fresh cement-based materials. The rheology of a fresh cement-based material is one of its most important aspects, characterizing its flow and deformation, and governing the mixing, placement, and casting quality of a concrete.

This is the first book to bring the field together on an increasingly important topic, as new types of cement-based materials and new concrete technologies are developed. It describes measurement equipment, procedures, and data interpretation of the rheology of cement paste and concrete, as well as applications such as self-compacting concrete, pumping, and 3D printing. A range of other cement-based materials are examined, such as fiber-reinforced concrete, cemented paste backfills, and alkali-activated cement.

Rheology of Fresh Cement-Based Materials serves as a reference book for researchers and engineers, and a textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students.
