CONCRETE WORKS
 Plain and Reinforced Concrete
 Plain Concrete
o an artificial stone as a result of mixing cement, fine aggregates,
coarse aggregates, and water.
 Reinforced Concrete
o Is a concrete with reinforcement properly embedded in such a
manner that the two materials act together in resisting forces.
CONCRETE WORKS
 Different Types of Concrete Used in Construction are:
1. Ordinary Portland Cement
2. Rapid Hardening Portland Cement which is preferred when high early
strength concrete is desired
3. Blast Furnace or Sulfate Cement used on concrete structures designed
to resist chemical

 Different Types of Concrete Used in Construction are:
4. Low Heat Portland Cement used for massive sections designed to
reduce the heat of hydration
5. Portland Pozzolan Cement with a low hardening characteristics
concrete
6. High Alumina Cement
CONCRETE WORKS
 Aggregates
1. Coarse Aggregate
• such as crushed stone, crushed gravel or natural gravel with
particles retained on a 5 mm sieve
2. Fine Aggregate
• Such as crushed stone, crushed gravel, sand or natural sand with
particles passing on a 5 mm sieve

MASONRY WORKS
 Concrete Hollow Blocks
Concrete Hollow Block is popularly known as CHB. It is classified as
load bearing (15 – 20 centimeters thick) and non-bearing blocks (7-10
centimeters thick).
