Students will able to understand about the concrete mixture and its properties,identify the types of concrete used in construction industry and its aplication.They also can understand the basic requirement for fresh and harden state of concrete.For your additional information,students will learn more about building and materials that including related topics to this courses.For example, during Glass topics,they will know about properties of glasses,types of glasses and tempered glass(details) and so on.Basically,this courses will give you knowledge about building,the materials,site investigation and about foundation.
• This is the most common type of concrete and is made mostly from portland cement, sand, aggregate and water. It is used reinforce and un-reinforce for structures, roads, foundation. The compositions of cement, sand and aggregate vary from 1:1:2 ( a richest practical mixture) to 1:3 :6 (a lean mixture used for concrete filling)
• Concrete not strengthened by reinforcement. Used for foundations and mass structures such as damn, and gravity retaining walls. also called non-reinforced concrete
• A plain concrete with a large ratio aggregate to cement than structural concrete.It is used for filling and not structural duties
• Concrete of such a quality that it is suitable for load-bearing members of structures. If it is a compact concrete made with stone aggregate , it is of comparatively high density (about 2.4 ) and great strength. If it is based on aggregate then high strengths are available but the design generally requires special considerations.
