Crushed marble stone fine aggregate in concrete?
Crushed marble stone has a low absorption rate hence less water is required which means better strength. Also the marble typically has a denser specific gravity.
How do you make concrete?
Look up concrete in Wikipedia for detailed information. Concrete for a foundation or floor is generally mixed in the proportion 1 part cement, 2 parts sand, and 4 parts gravel (or crushed stone). Crushed stone is better than water worn stone as its irregular shape makes for stronger concrete. If a bag of cement is approximately 1 cu. ft., a 1:2:4 mixture calls requires 1 bag cement, 2 cu. ft. sand and 4 cu. ft. stone Since the sand and cement fills the voids of the stone the above quantities yield 4½ cu. ft. concrete. The concrete mixture is mixed, by hand with a shovel or in a portable powered concrete mixer, with water just sufficient to provide a workable mixture for the work in hand. Care is needed not to use too much water as this weakens the final concrete.
How is concrete made?
Concrete is made from cement and other cementitious materials such as fly ash and slag cement, coarse aggregate made of crushed stone, fine aggregate such as sand, water, and chemical admixtures. For more information please visit the related link.
How do i make concrete using nature?
Concrete IS nature, the aggregate is crushed rock, the cement is made of natural lime and clay, mix these together with water and you get concrete.
What is normal concrete?
Normal Concrete refers to the fresh concrete which haven't yet cured providing that there was no add mixtures/any accelerators being infused upon mixing fine aggregates, gravel and cement plus water.

Can cement bricks and concrete bricks be used together in the same wall construction?
I think that they can, if they are both used correctly, the cement and concrete bricks can be put together in the same wall construction. :) <><><> I think you need to define some words. Concrete is made by mixing portland cement, water, and sand/crushed stone. There ARE no "cement bricks" Traditional bricks are made by mixing clay, shale, and water, and baking them in a kiln (oven) at high temperatures. And yes, regular clay brick and concrete brick/ block are frequently both used in a wall. Together.
How many gallons of water in a cubic foot of crushed stone?

What effect has the quantity of mixing water have upon the quality of concrete?
the strength of concrete is effected by water /cement ratio as the water/cement ratio increases the strength of the concrete decreases
Should you use salt water to mix concrete?
Mixing salt water with concrete is not advised. The concrete will not set up properly and will crumble very easily.

What can effect the strength of concrete?
The water/concrete ratio, not mixing it well enough, quality of raw materials, the age of the concrete, and the temperature and humidity of the area surrounding the concrete.
What does concrete?
Concrete is a well proportioned mixture of cement and other cementitious materials such as fly ash and slag cement, coarse aggregate made of crushed stone, fine aggregate such as sand, water, and chemical admixtures. The more inclusive answer is that concrete is a matrix of stone/sand aggregate adhered into a mass with a binding agent like Portland Cement or hot asphalt oil. This can refer to a person: He was as solid as concrete and would not move off his position.
