Durability of Building Materials and Components 8

Front Cover
NRC Research Press, 1999 - 2954 pages
Volume one of a set of four, this text contains the proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Building Materials and Componenets (8dbmc) held in Vancouver in 1999. The book contains four parts each reflecting contributions made to the durability of specific building materials, namely: concrete, masonry, wood and polymers.
