À l'état durci, le béton est un matériau poreux complexe. Ses propriétés d'usage (performances mécaniques ou thermiques, durabilité…) sont liées à sa structure poreuse qui elle-même dépend de l'arrangement des grains à l'état frais. Étudiant les propriétés des matériaux granulaires et celles de leurs mélanges, cet ouvrage propose différents outils permettant au formulateur de concevoir des bétons de façon innovante. Afin de décrire les méthodes de caractérisation des matériaux, il analyse les propriétés physiques sur lesquelles elles reposent et établit ainsi leurs limites. Il développe également les notions de porosité et de surface spécifique et présente les propriétés de transport des bétons (diffusion et perméation). Chaque chapitre se termine par plusieurs exercices permettant d'assimiler les connaissances théoriques présentées et de les appliquer à des problèmes concrets de génie civil.

Understanding and managing damage and cracking in concrete is essential to ensuring the integrity and durability of civil engineering structures. Both theoretical and practical, this book presents a comprehensive approach to these problems by proposing models and numerical modeling strategies that are treated in a manner that is both simplified and efficient. It proposes a wide variety of applications that are derived from research programs and engineering cases. This book also addresses many situations, such as monotonic or cyclic behavior, seismic responses, a description of fast dynamic situations and effects due to the maturation of concrete at an early age in massive structures. Numerous detailed exercises are provided to help students to understand modeling and calculation techniques. Damage and Cracking of Concrete Structures is indeed intended for students, but also for engineers and researchers in the field of mechanics of materials and structures and, more generally, in civil engineering.

This book highlights the latest advances, innovations, and applications in cement-based materials (CBM) and concrete structures, as presented by leading international researchers and engineers at the International RILEM Conference on synergizing expertise toward sustainability and robustness of CBM and concrete structures (SynerCrete), held in Milos Island, Greece, on June 14-16, 2023. The aim of the conference was to discuss and arouse progress in research, development, and application of CBM and structural concrete through combination of expertise from distinct fields of knowledge, such as performance-based design, 3D modeling for analysis/design, building information modeling, and even robotics, while keeping focus on multiscale approaches at time and spatial levels. It covers a diverse range of topics concerning alternative concrete formulations for adaptation to climate change, performance-based and multiphysics/multiscale design and innovative testing, structural health monitoring and maintenance management, integral BIM-based planning, and resource-responsible building. The contributions, which were selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, present a wealth of exciting ideas that will open novel research directions and foster new multidisciplinary collaborations. The two volumes encompass more than 200 original contributions in the field.
