Guide to the construction of reinforced concrete in the Arabian Peninsula

This book provides those working with reinforced concrete in the Arabian Peninsula information and guidance on the production of high-quality, durable concrete, able to withstand the region’s extremely harsh environment. Much of the guidance is also applicable to concrete construction in other hot-wet and hot-dry environments around the world. The principles set out are applicable for the whole range of construction activity, from small-scale building works to large civil engineering projects. The book, divided into four parts, was prepared by a working party as part of a collaborative project between CIRIA and The Concrete Society, working with authorities and organisations based in Arabia.
