This is still true today with new technologies producing new materials and advancing the performance and applications of old ones. Many issues have to be addressed and resolved before such materials are confidently accepted in practice. Issues such as durability and long-term performance, design methods to allow their integration in construction, and new or modified standards to facilitate acceptance in the marketplace are often mentioned. This book on analytical techniques in concrete science and technology is a valuable addition to the literature addressing these subjects.Over the past three decades, material scientists at IRC have contributed extensively to the advances on construction research through the development of experimental techniques. Their work is based on innovations in many areas including differential thermal methods, x-ray diffractometry, electron microscopy, petrography and design of special miniature techniques for determining mechanical behavior of cement systems. It is, therefore, natural to see that seven of the books chapters are written by IRC scientists. To add to this strength, the other thirteen chapters are written by world-class experts in their respective fields. The book is the first of its kind addressing technologies associated with the use of both organic and inorganic products and composite materials. The principles of the techniques are explained and applications clearly described. In addition, a wide selection of references are provided to give the reader ready access to more detailed information should it be required. The techniques described in the book are useful for analysis and prediction of many material-related issues such as: (i) resolving durability issues related to the mechanisms of reaction, (ii) determining parameters that influence reaction kinetics of processes that affect material properties and service life of building elements, (iii) developing and characterizing new materials for durable structures, (iv) establishing reasons for structural failures and conducting related forensic investigations, (v) providing a basis for the development of relevant standards and methods for advancing aspects of objective based codes, and (vi) validating numerical methods for predicting long-term performance of construction materials. The result is a handbook that presents up-to-date information in the form that makes it valuable to read and come back to frequently. It should become a valuable reference source for students and practitioners as well as professionals engaged in standards writing. Ramachandran V.S. Beaudoin J.J.
