Concrete

Concrete is a fundamental building material in construction, known for its versatility, durability, and strength. It is composed of three main components:

  1. Cement: Acts as a binder that holds the mixture together. The most common type is Portland cement.

  2. Aggregates: These include sand, gravel, or crushed stone, providing bulk and stability to the mixture.

  3. Water: Reacts with the cement to form a paste that binds the aggregates together. The right amount of water is crucial for the concrete’s workability and strength.
