Résumé:

"In the last ten years, concrete has reemerged as a prime building material and is highly rated amongst architects because of its sculptural qualities and interesting textures. There have been great advances in the material itself, with many surface finishes, textures and colours of concrete now being available; even types of concrete which can withstand the vigours of the aging process better than natural stone. This book provides a systematic overview of the applications of this building material. A selection of 22 international projects which are particularly relevant are documented in detail, and will prove a source of inspiration for those active in design and construction. The buildings selected encompass a wide range of different types and functions, providing an intriguing record of the whole spectrum of current developments in concrete technology."--BOOK JACKET.
