The effects of natural aggregates on the properties of concrete.
Concrete is defined as a workable mixture of a cementations material mostly cement mixed in suitable proportion with fine and coarser aggregate along with water.
Concrete depending upon reinforcement is of two types, plain cement concrete (P.C.C) and reinforced concrete (R.C.C).
Concrete has specific advantages over other structural materials like timber and steel structures. The only draw back of concrete is its poor tensile strength that is compensated with steel bars used in the concrete.
