Decorative Concrete
One attractive and adaptable way to improve the look of concrete surfaces is with decorative concrete. It creates aesthetically pleasing surfaces by fusing several design concepts with the practicality of regular concrete.
Components:
- Cement:The main binding agent is employed, which is Portland cement.
- Aggregates:Coarse aggregates (crushed stone or gravel) and fine aggregates (sand).
- Water: Starts the chemical reaction between cement and aggregates, forming a paste that holds them together.
- Additives: Adjust the concrete's characteristics to increase its strength, workability, and setting time.
