He received his PhD at the University of Mining \u0026amp; Metallurgy in Krakow. In 1967 he left for the United Kingdom and in 1968 he settled with his family in the United States. After a short stay at the Clarkson University in upstate New York, he focused his career on industrial research management. He became Associate Director of Martin Marietta Laboratories and construction materials research director for W. R. Grace \u0026amp; Co. After early retirement in 1991, he became a consultant and is presently President of Materials Service Life, a high-tech consulting company specializing in service life prediction of concrete-based infrastructure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley-American Ceramic Society","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47988971962597,"sku":"NP9781574982688","price":143.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781574982688.jpg?v=1761782264","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/concrete-technology-special-volume-isbn-9781574982688","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
