Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world due to its versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness. It is used for roads, streets, parking lots, bridges, skyscrapers, dams, homes, slabs, sidewalks, and many other applications.
Since the first edition was published in the United States in the mid-1920s, Mix Design and Control of Concrete Mixes has become the primary technical reference source for the cement and concrete industry.
This fully revised 8th Canadian edition has been written to provide an up-to-date and concise reference on concrete, including all the many advances that have been made since the last edition published in 2002. This documentation is based on more than 93 years of research and reflects the latest information on CSA standards, specifications, and test methods.
