Mkusanyiko: Concrete

Concrete is a composite construction material made primarily from aggregate, cement, and water. There are many formulations of concrete that provide various properties.
Concrete is the most widely used man-made product in the world as the main building material within architectural structures, foundations, brick/block walls, pavements, bridges, roads, runways, parking structures, dams, pipes, highways and superhighways. Therefore, concrete quality must accurately be tested for any building realization.
The quality of concrete is important in planning earthquake resistant structures that minimize damage, preventing injury and human loss.
Due to this reason, concrete must be closely controlled according to the relevant standards in every stage of production by experienced people using quality test equipment.
Since then the quality and the production technology of concrete strongly evolved hence considerable care supported by knowledge is required to produce quality concrete.
