Product Description
Innovative in approach, this book is a comprehensive, integrative exploration of the science and technology of construction materials that begins with a section on the structure and mechanical properties of materials. Begins with a discussion of the structure of materials (at a microscopic level), moves through mechanical properties, and follows-up with sections dealing individually with specific construction materials. A source of information for beginning and pr… More >>

I strongly believe this book is not proper reference if somebody would like to learn about the behavior of steel as a civil engineering material. The authors talk about the material as if the reader is well aware of the behavior and wants to refresh his/her knowledge.
It is not useful at all!
Rating: 1 / 5
The book is a good reference for the overall general concept of materials. This text does not include up to date materials.
