    INTRODUCTION

    Construction materials can be

    subdivided into two major

    categories namely

    Structural materials

    Non-structural materials

    As the name implies, structural

    materials are used for fabrication

    ofstructural element of a

    building namely slab, beams,

    columns and foundation.

    Non-structural materials are

    used for fabrication ofnon-

    namely brick walls, windows,

    CONCRETE

    Concrete is a composite

    material which consists of:

    Cement

    Aggregate (Coarse and fine)

    Water

    Additives (superplasticizer, fly

    ash etc)

    CONCRETE

    The main binder material

    which contribute to the

    strength properties of concrete

    is Portland Cement

    In a mass of concrete, the

    solidified Portland cement will

    hold the aggregates togetherto form a solid composite

    material

    CONCRETE

    Portland Cement is

    originally a powder

    material but with the

    presence of water, it will

    undergo hydration to form

    a solid matrix that act as

    the main binder inconcrete.

    RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE

    The fabrication of concrete

    structural element involves theplacement and compaction of

    fresh concrete mix within the

    structural formwork. Hence, the rheological

    (workability) properties of

    concrete is a majorconsideration to ensure proper

    placement and compaction of

    concrete mix within the

    formwork.

    Higher slump of fresh concrete

    indicates higher workability of

    the concrete mix.

    The degree of workability

    required is governed by the

    final application of the concrete

    mix.

    High workability concrete is

    needed when:

    The concrete mix has to be

    pumped to a great height

    The steel reinforcements of a

    structural member is highlycongested

    material which has dual

    mechanical properties

    It has a very high load

    bearing capacity when

    MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE

    In terms of elasticity,

    concrete is classified as a

    semi-elastic brittle

    composite material.

    Under compressive load,

    the longitudinal

    deformation of concretevaries linearly with the

    load up to certain strain.

    However, in most cases,

    the tension load

    capacity ofsteel is

    higher as compared toits compression load

    capacity.

    This is due to thetendency of buckling of

    steel when subjected to

    compressive load.

    Corrosion of steel is a

    major problem ofsteel

    Surface corrosion of steel is

    a chemical reaction

    between iron, water andoxygen that produces rust.
