CONCRETE
Concrete, an artificial stone-like mass, is the composite material that is
created by mixing binding material (cement or lime) along with the aggregate
(sand, gravel, stone, brick chips, etc.), water, admixtures, etc in specific
proportions. The strength and quality are dependent on the mixing
proportions.
The formula for producing concrete from its ingredients can be presented in
the following equation:
Concrete = Binding Material + Fine & Coarse Aggregate + Water + Admixture

3.Reinforced Concrete
4.Prestressed Concrete
5.Precast Concrete

1. Normal Strength Concrete
The concrete that is obtained by mixing the basic ingredients
cement, water and aggregate will give us normal strength concrete.
The strength of these type of concrete will vary from 10 MPa to
40MPa. The normal strength concrete has an initial setting time of
30 to 90 minutes that is dependent on the cement properties and the
weather conditions of the construction site

• 2. Plain Concrete
• The plain concrete will have no reinforcement in it. The main
constituents are the cement, aggregates, and water. Most
commonly used mix design is 1:2:4 which is the normal mix
design. The density of the plain concrete will vary between 2200
and 2500 Kg/meter cube. The compressive strength is 200 to 500
kg/cm2. These types of concrete are mainly used in the
construction of the pavements and the buildings, especially in
areas where there is less demand of high tensile strength. The
durability given by these type of concrete is satisfactory to high
extent.

. Reinforced Concrete

The reinforced cement concrete is defined as the concrete to which reinforcement


is introduced to bear the tensile strength. Plain concrete is weak in tension and
good in compression. Hence the placement of reinforcement will take up the
responsibility of bearing the tensile stresses. R.C.C works with the combined
action of the plain concrete and the reinforcement. The steel reinforcement used in
the concrete can be in the form of rods, bars or in the form of meshes. Now fibers
are also developed as reinforcement.Reinforced Concrete

• 5. Precast Concrete

• Various structural elements can be made and cast in the factory as per the
specifications and bought to the site at the time of assembly. Such concrete units are
called as the precast concrete. The examples of precast concrete units are concrete
.
blocks, the staircase units, precast walls and poles, concrete lintels and many other
elements. These units have the advantage of acquiring speedy construction as only
assemblage is necessary. As the manufacturing is done at site, quality is assured. The
only precaution taken is for their transportation.
