Exploiting Wastes in Concrete: Proceedings of the International Seminar Held at the University of Dundee, Scotland, UK on 7 September 1999Ravindra K. Dhir, Trevor G. Jappy Concrete will be the key material for mankind to create the built environment of the next millennium. The requirements of this infrastructure will be both demanding, in terms of technical performance and economy, and yet be greatly varied, from architectural masterpieces to the simplest of utilities.Exploiting wastes in concrete forms the Proceedings of the one day International Seminar held during the Congress, Creating with concrete, 6-10 September 1999, organised by the concrete technology unit, University of Dundee. |
