What is more fire resistant steel or concrete?
Concrete is much more fire resistant. This is shown by the design of reinforced concrete structure where the steel is placed within the concrete. A major reason is that the concrete protects the steel from any fire. Steel only construction requires the steel to be covered in a fire protection material.
What stronger brick or cement?
http://simscience.org/cracks/advanced/concrete2.html A common mistake people make is to use the words cement and concrete interchangably. It is important to remember that cement is only a component of concrete and concrete is the structural material. The cement used in concrete is not used as a building material because it would be too expensive and not as strong as concrete. So when you see a parking garage, a driveway, a sidewalk or a road remember it is made of concrete, not cement. And, by the way, that funny looking truck is a concrete mixer, not a cement mixer! But, if cement is not concrete, then what is it? Cement is a general name for a material that binds other materials together. Yes, it is another name for glue. There are many materials which we would classify as cements and they are usually identified with certain uses, and can produce different types of "concrete". The type of cement used to make the riding surface of some of our roads (blacktop!) is called asphalt cement. It is a petroleum bi-product, and it binds rock into the road material we call asphaltic concrete.
To cover a road with material like asphalt or concrete?
pavement
Is bituminous material is the same for bituminous concrete if not why?
No, bituminous material and bituminous concrete are not the same. Bituminous material refers to the binder, typically asphalt, used in asphalt pavement mixtures. Bituminous concrete, on the other hand, refers to the final pavement product made by combining bituminous material with aggregates like sand and stone.
Please Convert 509 tons of asphalt concrete binder course to cubic meter?
To convert 509 tons of asphalt concrete binder course to cubic meters, you need to know the density of the material. The density of asphalt concrete binder course can vary, but a common value is around 2.2 tons per cubic meter. Using this value, 509 tons would be approximately 231.36 cubic meters.
What is the purpose of cement in concrete?
cement is the binder for concrete like glue with out it you have mud with rocks
What was roman concrete made out of?
Roman concrete consisted of the same basic elements as present day concrete which is an aggregate and a binder. For the aggregate the Romans used pulverized rubble, broken tiles and rock. A volcanic debris called "pit sand" was also used. For the binder, gypsum and lime was used.
Is asphalt concrete organic?
Asphalt concrete is not considered organic; it is primarily composed of aggregates (such as crushed stone, gravel, or sand) and asphalt binder, which is a byproduct of petroleum refining. While asphalt binder contains hydrocarbons, which are organic compounds, the overall composition of asphalt concrete is classified as inorganic due to its mineral aggregate content. Therefore, it is primarily a synthetic material used in road construction and paving.
What product is made out of sand ash and limestone?
Concrete is made out of sand, ash, and limestone. Sand provides the bulk of the material, ash or fly ash acts as a binder, and limestone is used as a filler to enhance the properties of the concrete.
How many yards of cement needed for a 40x60 patio?

What are the main functions of Portland cement?
It serves as the binder for sand and gravel when making concrete.
How much does a binder-clip weigh?
A typical binder clip weighs around 5 to 10 grams, depending on its size and material.
What is the most costly material in concrete?
Ans: The costly material in concrete is cement
What is the difference between asphalt and concrete?
"Asphalt" the paving material is more properly called asphaltic concrete. It's gravel held together by a binder of a tarry substance extracted from crude oil known as bitumen. Bitumen is also itself sometimes called asphalt. "Concrete" is a type of building material that basically consists of rocks (gravel) combined with cement and usually sand. the crisp like the firt jsk; <:O :) >:l
List five layers of construction in footways and carriageways?
Subgrade: The natural soil or rock layer at the bottom. Subbase: Layer of aggregate material placed on top of the subgrade. Base course: Layer of cement-treated or asphalt-treated aggregate material. Binder course: Layer of asphalt concrete or cement concrete providing strength and stability. Surface course: The top layer of asphalt or concrete providing smoothness and skid resistance.
