About this book

This extraordinary compendium of early-twentieth-century mechanical devices covers a seemingly inexhaustible variety of technological applications. Compiled as a ready reference for inventors, engineers, students of mechanics, and artisans, this volume's 1800 engravings - from simple diagrams to detailed cross-sections - provide a wealth of illustrated information, offering quick, clear, and satisfying explanations of the applications and inner-workings of a vast assortment of mechanical devices which appeared during the heyday of mechanical invention. These range from simple hooks and levers to complex machinery used in steam, hydraulic, air, and electric power, as well as navigation, gearing, clocks, and much more.

Understanding the Rheology of Concrete
Estimating, modelling, controlling and monitoring the flow of concrete is a vital part of the construction process, as the properties of concrete before it has set can have a significant impact on performance. This book provides a detailed overview of the rheological behaviour of concrete, including measurement techniques, the impact of mix design, and casting. <p/>Part one begins with two introductory chapters dealing with the rheology and rheometry of complex fluids, followed by chapters that examine specific measurement and testing techniques for concrete. The focus of part two is the impact of mix design on the rheological behaviour of concrete, looking at additives including superplasticizers and viscosity agents. Finally, chapters in part three cover topics related to casting, such as thixotropy and formwork pressure. <p/>With its distinguished editor and expert team of contributors, Understanding the rheology of concrete is an essential reference for researchers, materials specifiers, architects and designers in any section of the construction industry that makes use of concrete, and will also benefit graduate and undergraduate students of civil engineering, materials and construction.
