Abstract

Cement, water, coarse and finely ground, and mortar are added to make concrete (if needed). The great advantage of concrete is that it can be built to withstand extreme conditions. The goal is to assemble these components in precise proportions to produce concrete that is easy to transport, stand, assemble, and finish, and that will set and harden to produce a solid and durable product. The amount of each component (cement, water, and aggregates) affects the properties of the solid concrete. Concrete mixes are intended to produce concrete that can be easily installed at very low cost. In order to produce strong and durable concrete, the concrete must work and harden if it is plastic, then set and firm. The design of the mix should take into account the location where the concrete will be used, such as exposure to seawater, trucks, vehicles, forklifts, pedestrians, or hot and cold temperatures. Concrete is made up of Cement, Water, Solid and Fine Joints, and composite materials. The proportions of each component in the mixture influence the final properties of the solid concrete. Weight is a very accurate measure of weight. Volume measurement is not so bad, yet it is enough for small projects.
