RILEM Bookseries,2211-0852 ;243-030-33341-8 Preface -- Committees -- Sponsors -- Keynote Lectures ( 6 papers of around 15 pages each), Rheology and fresh properties -- Mechanical properties, Durability, Shrinkage and associated cracking -- Microstructure.The book gathers the peer-reviewed contributions presented at the 3rd International Conference on Application of Superabsorbent Polymers (SAP) and Other New Admixtures towards Smart Concrete, held in Skukuza, South Africa, on November 25-27, 2019. It features papers focusing on the behavior of SAP in concrete (in particular the absorption behavior) as well as the effect of SAP on fresh and hardened concrete properties. It also covers topics such as other modern admixtures, in particular rheology-modifying admixtures, including the recently emerging field of bio- or waste-derived admixtures. The conference builds on the experience and summarizes the activities of the RILEM Technical Committee 260-RSC "Recommendations for Use of Superabsorbent Polymers in Concrete Construction" and addresses other prominent research activities in the field of concrete admixtures.RILEM Bookseries,2211-0852 ;24Building materialsPolymersMaterialsAnalysisMechanics, AppliedBuilding MaterialsPolymersCharacterization and Analytical TechniqueEngineering MechanicsBuilding materials.Polymers.MaterialsAnalysis.Mechanics, Applied.Building Materials.Polymers.Characterization and Analytical Technique.Engineering Mechanics.691Boshoff William Pedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtCombrinck Riaanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMechtcherine Viktoredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtWyrzykowski Mateuszedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK99103666037033213rd International Conference on the Application of Superabsorbent Polymers (SAP) and Other New Admixtures Towards Smart Concrete2527189UNINA
