		<description><![CDATA[Regarding material viewpoint, concrete itself could be described as a mixture of sand, cement, aggregate, water, admixture and air. Practically speaking, concrete consists a lot of inter-depend task. The basic way to achieve this target is to produce concrete with low water cement ration (W/C). The use of plasticizer or superplasticiser will allow producing concrete [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are significant developments in concrete technology for a number of different and unique applications. Shrinkage compensating concrete is a concrete made with an expansive cement which, when properly restrained by reinforcement or other means, will expand by an amount equal to or slightly greater than the anticipated drying shrinkage. Ideally a residual compression will [...]]]></description>
