He told me that though he had expected more text, it was very interesting just to see what has been done using concrete. The book has houses, business buildings, museums, roads, apartment buildings, and Hoover Dam.The photographs are excellent, and the text with each one is informative. Some of the structures were designed by well known architects, some lesser known. A few of the pages are not numbered when the photos take both pages. The index lists projects by name, with page numbers, and architects by name, with page numbers, which means you can search either way. Photographic credits are at the end of the index.The book is 11.75" by 10.25". It is 237 pages without the index. The paper is heavy and glossy.I had flipped through it before I gave it to him, and enjoyed it. I imagine that anyone using concrete would get ideas from the book. However, it is not a text book.I recommend it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars incredible book on "Concrete" structures *by B***G on Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2018* Enjoy this incredible book on "Concrete" structures.Only brief descriptions of the structures are offered though, and no technical data at all, which is a shame. But still "Five Stars" for the books uniqueness and the pictures of the structures are great. (Remember, Ancient Rome would not have been "Ancient Rome" without "Roman" Concrete, whose secret ingredient was the volcanic sands of Mount Vesuvius.)From "Concrete Thoughts" by Leonard Koren at the beginning of the book (no page numbers):"Concrete is a composite of sand, cement, aggregate (crushed rock or pebbles) and miscellaneous additives. (When used structurally - as bearing walls, floors and ceiling - it also contains steel reinforcing rods.) Cement, the binding agent of this admixture, is mainly lime. In order to get lime you have to cook limestone at over 1,400C (2,552F)."On page 344 is a picture of the amazing Geisel Library, the Main Library at U.C.S.D., built in 1970, where I spent a lot time studying in the late 1970's. (If you do go see this incredible building be sure to go back and see it at night when the lights are on, it is amazing.) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Adorable for display *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2019* This is a cute addition for any bookcase!! Pairs so well with the corresponding retailer sized wood book. Gorgeous pictures and fabulously detailed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7054582-concrete-in-architecture-hardcover-september-3-2012](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7054582-concrete-in-architecture-hardcover-september-3-2012) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
