Until recently, the demolition of reinforced concrete has been a long and difficult process, but developments in the design and use of high pressure water jets have made this a cleaner and faster process with many other applications in civil, construction and environmental engineering. Andreas Momber, a well known expert in water jet and abrasive water jet cutting technology has produced a unique and comprehensive book dealing with the fundamentals of the hydrodemolition process. Coverage includes equipment, processes, surface quality aspects, demolition with abrasive water jets, pulsed liquid jets, alternative applications and safety aspects. This book will help you to Understand the hydrodemolition process and its rewards, enabling you to achieve a cleaner, faster process in the demolition of concrete surfaces and reinforced concrete. Learn when and where hydrodemolition can be used Understand the costs, advantages and safety aspects involved Apply the technique to new applications in your industry such as cleaning and waste management Purchase the appropriate equipment, cutting time and maintenance costs * Written by a well known expert in the field of water jet and abrasive water jet cutting technology * First comprehensive book in the growing area of hydrodemolition of concrete surfaces and reinforced concrete * Coverage includes the theory and practice of the hydrodemolition process 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aWrecking 650 0$aWater jets 650 0$aConcrete$xFinishing 650 0$aReinforced concrete construction 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z1856174603$z9781856174602$w(OCoLC)57749979 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9781856174602$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 907 $a.b13650609$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003219889707536 996 $aHydrodemolition of concrete surfaces and reinforced concrete structures$91213508 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$genk$h0$i0
