General description

Since man has left the caves, he started to spread all over the planet and built dwellings to live in and constructed roads to walk on. But what if he wanted a castle instead of a house? And what if the road ended in a valley? Then he realized that he had to build in a great scale. The question is? which material is the best for building structures? Stone? Yes, it is good and you can find it everywhere. Steel? Sure, steel is cool, especially in combination with glass. However, there is one kind of material whose history started in ancient times, but had to wait till 18th century to become one of the most used materials in structural engineering. Of course, it is concrete, easily-shapeable, solid, durable!

There are so many reasons why to construct from concrete. . .
