This review is from: The Science and Technology of Civil Engineering Materials (Paperback)
I ordered this book under the pretense that is was in "good" condition. However, upon opening the package I noticed the cover was bent and torn, and several pages were being held to the binding by masking tape. I would give this item a "poor" condition status. I am very displeased with the book.

This review is from: The Science and Technology of Civil Engineering Materials (Paperback)
Clearly explains basic concepts for metals, aggregate, portland cement concrete, asphalt cement concrete and wood. Very vague in the polymers section but this book was written in the 90s. Good book to get the basics and that is really all an undergrad course will be able to teach, which is what I just took.

This review is from: The Science and Technology of Civil Engineering Materials (Paperback)
The book is a good reference for the overall general concept of materials. This text does not include up to date materials.
