Concrete-polymer composites have attracted people's attention in many industries for their excellent physical and mechanical properties and durability. The peer reviewed paper in this special volume cover the following topics: materials, mix proportion design and properties of concrete-polymer composites; their characterization methods, their application and other special aspects. In these papers the authors are trying to answer what is essential in concrete-polymer composites, how to make it better for the given project and how to eventually achieve sustainable building materials.

Cement and concrete are regarded as the primary construction materials for use in the new millennium and Portland cement is by far one of the most extensively used materials on earth today. The construction of increasingly tall, more intricate and ornate structures require cementitious materials to be stronger and more flexible and this is generally achieved by inclusion of chemical additives into cementitious materials. These can include fillers to give improved strength, accelerators to decrease reaction time and polymer-based materials to make the final material less brittle. This book seek

Mortar and concrete made with portland cement has been a popular construction material in the world for the past 170 years or more. However, cement mortar and concrete have some disadvantages such as delayed hardening, low tensile strength, large drying shrinkage and low chemical resistance. To reduce these disadvantages, polymers have been utilized as an additive.Polymer-modified or polymer cement mortar (PCM) and concrete (PCC) are the materials which are made by partially replacing the cement hydrate binders of conventional cement mortar or concrete, with polymers.
