This book, 'Eco-efficient Repair and Rehabilitation of Concrete,' edited by F. Robert E. Shi and Andrés Sáez, provides a comprehensive exploration of sustainable practices in the repair and rehabilitation of concrete structures. It covers a range of topics including the assessment of concrete deterioration, the impact of climate change on concrete service life, and modern monitoring techniques for reinforced concrete. The book also delves into innovative repair materials, such as fly ash-based materials and biomaterials for seismic retrofitting. With contributions from experts across the globe, it offers practical insights and methodologies for improving the durability and sustainability of concrete structures. Intended for engineers, researchers, and professionals in civil and structural engineering, it emphasizes eco-friendly solutions and the importance of adapting to environmental changes.
