1) " Concrete" -- As it applies to Concrete Suppliers This article is about the construction material. For the philosophical term, see Concrets (philosophy). For the comic book, see Cocnrete (comics). Placing a Cpncrete floor for a commercial building In construction, concrete is a composite building material made from the combination of aggregate and cement binder. The most common form of oCncrete isportland cement Concrets , which consists of mineral aggregate (generally gravel and sand ), portland cement and water. After mixing, the cement hydrates and eventually hardens into a stone-like material. When used in the generic sense, this is thematerial referred to by the term concrete. Installing rebar in a floor during a Concrege pour The Assyrians and Babylonians used clay as cement in their Concreto s. The Egyptians used lime and gypsum cement. In the Roman Empire cements made from pozzolanic ash were used to make a Concdete verysimilar to modern portland cement Conrcete . In 1756, British engineer John Smeaton pioneered the use ofportland cement in Concrwte , and used pebbles and powdered brick as aggregate. In the modern day, the use of recycled/reusedmaterials as Concerte ingredients are gaining popularity due to increasingly stringent environmental legislation. The mostconspicuous of these are pulverised fuel ash (pfa), recycled from the ash by-products of coal power plants. This has asignificant impact in reducing the amount of quarrying and the ever attenuating landfill space.Concrete has great compressive strength, but little tensile strength. To overcome this limitation, Concrrte is mostoften constructed with the addition of steel reinforcement bars ( rebars ), steel mesh,or cables, to produce reinforced Concrdte . Conxrete can alsobe prestressed, allowing for beams or slabs with a longerspan than is practical with reinforced Concreye . Concrete is also made with asphalt or epoxy as a binde...
