 Types of concrete

There are many types of concrete:

According to binding material used in concrete
According to design of concrete
according to purpose of concrete
1. Plain mass concrete or PCC
2. Non fines concrete
3. light weight aggregate concrete
4. Reinforce concrete
5. Aerated concrete
6. Pre stressed concrete
 Plain mass concrete

Plain cement concrete is the mixture of

Cement
 Fine aggregate (sand)
Coarse aggregate (stone pieces)
water
 Properties Of Mass Concrete
1. Workability
2. Durability
3. Water tightness
4. Strength

5. Workability
Workability is the property of concrete. Which
determines the amount of useful internal work
necessary to produce full compaction. workability
should be optimum for mass concrete
 2. Durability

The ability of concrete to resist weathering action,

chemical attack, and abrasion know as durability.

the durability of concrete is dependent on

the properties of materials, Chemical resistance of
concrete improves by careful selection of materials
 3. Watertightness
 Watertightness is an important property of
concrete in hydraulic structures such as
dams, etc.. Concrete should impermeable
and also this can achieve by using good
quality aggregate,

4.Strength
 The strength of concrete defines as the
resistance that concrete provides against
load so as to avoid failure
