Synopsis: The emergence and application of stainless steel wires-engineered multifunctional ultra-high performance concrete advances the safety, durability, function/intelligence, resilience, and sustainability of infrastructure, thus prolonging the service life and reducing the maintenance to lower the lifecycle cost of infrastructure. This is the first reference work on this multifunctional concrete, which combines high performance with functional/ smart properties, such as thermal, electrical, self-sensing, and electromagnetic properties, as well as a sustainable profile. The book delivers both fundamentals and applications about multifunctional concrete, covering basic principles, properties, mechanisms, engineering application cases, and future development challenges and strategies. Stainless Steel Wires-Engineered Multifunctional Ultra-High Performance Concrete opens up a new horizon for researchers and specialist technologists in the field of concrete materials and structures.
