How concrete is made
Put simply, the concept of concrete is a mixture of glue and raw materials. Adhesive consists of portland cement and water, which helps to link raw materials (stone, gravel ...) and fine materials (sand, grit, crushed stone ...). Through a chemical equation called hydration, these substances harden and cause all to stick together into a rock-hard mass ...

Concrete maintenance technique properly
In the process of building a building, there are many things to be concerned about. Building quality is still the top concern of homeowners, in which concrete quality is a key factor for a "healthy" home. Sometimes the quality of materials (cement, sand, gravel, stone) meets the standards, but still does not give the desired quality of concrete. That may be due to improper preparation procedures such as concrete formwork grafting. An equally important cause is not paying enough attention to maintenance.
