Get an overview to learn the Basics of properties of cement and know how the carbon dioxide is being removed ABSTRACT Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world because of its beauty, strength, and durability, among other benefits. Concrete is used in nearly every type of construction, including homes, buildings, roads, bridges, airports, and subways. And in an era of increased attention to the environmental impact of construction, concrete performs well when compared to other building materials.
