Coatings for Concrete: Design Principles and Applications provides a timely, comprehensive exploration of the scientific principles, methodologies, and innovations behind the use of coatings, focusing on their pivotal function of enhancing the resilience, efficiency, and longevity of concrete structures and their components. The book addresses the critical need –recognized by both academia and industry – for a systematic resource on the broad range of materials and techniques available. It is accompanied by rigorous analyses of the complex interactions between coatings and concrete surfaces, with an objective of emphasizing design considerations based on specific applications (e.g., strengthening, environmental protection, or structural reinforcement).

Drawing from the latest advancements, the book covers emerging technologies like nanocoatings, self-sensing materials, and fire-retardant solutions while also examining sought-after, real-life use cases to present empirical data and insights that inform best practices, enrich research efforts, and support the development of sophisticated, next-generation products that more effectively fulfill the evolving demands of the construction industry.

Über Autor(innen)

Mousavi, Seyed Sina
Seyed Sina Mousavi holds a master’s degree in the field of concrete structures from Babol Noshirvani University of Technology (NIT), Iran, and a PhD from the University of Quebec, Canada. Throughout his PhD studies, his research focused on creating ultra-high ductile concrete (UHDC) for 3D printing and self-healing concrete through a complex and innovative mechanism using superabsorbent polymer (SAP). He has worked as a postdoc researcher under the supervision of Prof. Dehestani at NIT and is currently employed by the Concrete Laboratory of the same institution as a senior researcher.

Yeon, Jung Heum
Before joining Texas State University in 2021 where he’s currently employed as an assistant professor, Jung Heum Yeon was an assistant (2014-2019) and associate professor (2019-2021) at Gachon University in Seongnam, South Korea. There, he studied smart infrastructure materials and infrastructure systems. He received his PhD from the University of Texas at Austin. His current research covers a wide range of structural, material, and pavement engineering problems, with a common thread being applying smart and innovative technologies to all stages of a lifecycle, from design to construction, monitoring, and maintenance of civil infrastructure assets.

Dehestani, Mehdi
Mehdi Dehestani received his PhD from the Sharif University of Technology, Iran. He has accrued 11 years of academic and teaching experience at Babol Noshirvani University of Technology, where he’s currently employed as a Full Professor in the Faculty of Civil Engineering. He is a well-respected supervisor of both master and PhD candidates and has published prolifically in peer-reviewed, highly ranked, JCR-indexed journals. His research interests span a wide range of composites, structural analysis, concrete, cementitious composites, and intelligent construction.
