Concrete is composed mainly of cement (commonly Portland cement), aggregate,
water, and chemical admixtures.

Concrete
• The word “concrete” originates from the Latin verb “concretus”, which means to grow together.
• Concrete is most widly use construction material and it is mixture of cement,sand,aggregate and water.
![Page 9: THE HISTORY OF CONCRETE AND ITS RECENT DEVELOPMENT SIDDHARTH SHANKAR LECTURER IOE,PULCHOWK CAMPUS CHIEF,CMTL](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649d975503460f94a81474/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Advantage of Concrete• We have the ability to cast desired shapes
– Arches, piers, columns, shells
• Properties can be tailored according to need (strength, durability, etc.)
• Ability to resist high temperatures– Will maintain structural integrity far longer than structural steel
• Does not require protective coatings
• Can be an architectural & structural member at the same time

The Egyptians were using early forms of concrete over 5000 years ago to build pyramids. They mixed mud and straw to form bricks and used gypsum and lime to make mortars.

300 BC - 476 AD—Roman ArchitectureThe ancient Romans used a material that is remarkably close to modern cement to build
many of their architectural marvels, such as the Colosseum, and the Pantheon. The Romans also used animal products in their cement as an early
form of admixtures.

Types of Concrete:• There are various types of concrete for different applications that are created by changing the proportions of the main
ingredients.
• The mix design depends on the type of structure being built, how the concrete will be mixed and delivered, and how it will be placed to form the structure.
• Examples include:
• Regular concrete• Pre-Mixed concrete• High-strength concrete• Stamped concrete• High-Performance concrete• UHPC (Ultra-High Performance Concrete)• Self-consolidating concretes• Vacuum concretes• Shotcrete• Cellular concrete• Roller-compacted concrete• Glass concrete• Asphalt concrete• Rapid strength concrete• Rubberized concrete• Polymer concrete• Geopolymer or Green concrete• Limecrete• Gypsum concrete• Light-Transmitting Concrete

Admixtures and Properties
![Page 39: THE HISTORY OF CONCRETE AND ITS RECENT DEVELOPMENT SIDDHARTH SHANKAR LECTURER IOE,PULCHOWK CAMPUS CHIEF,CMTL](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649d975503460f94a81474/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Polypropylene Polypropylene FibersFibers
Benefits•With the addition of polypropylene fiber in the mixture of concrete it enhances the toughness and tensile strength. When concrete is by itself it has the tendency to be very brittle especially in the area of a tensile test which is where the fibers come into play to build in where regular concrete lags, which can increase the compressive strength to a dramatic level. •In coastal areas there is a high concentration of chloride ions from the salty air, this creates corrosion with the steel product which produces rust as a result. This rust has the capacity to expand four to ten times larger than the iron causing a large expansion which makes crakes and voids. Polypropylene fibers now are underway in replacing the reinforcing steel in concrete, which has a much greater strength and can reach up to 20k psi.
Background• Polypropylene is a recent additive to cement as of the 1960s,
whereas other fibers are underway of being tested strength wise for concrete.
Properties•When regular concrete is under a great amount of compression it will spilt and deform on the spot into separate pieces once it reaches its greatest tensile load. Mixing sporadically polypropylene fibers into the cement will balance this effect by attaching to the other piece that wants to spilt away and maintain both sides for a longer duration.

Nanotechnology in Concrete • Nano-catalysts to reduce clinkering
temperature in cement production• Silicon dioxide nano-particles
(nanosilica) for ultra-high strength concrete
• Incorporation of carbon nano-tubes into cement matrix would result in stronger, ductile, more energy absorbing concrete
• Eco-binders (MgO, geopolymers, etc) modified by nano-particles with substantially reduced volume of portland cement
