Concrete is a critical part of our society and the projects that you build around your house. When we take the time to build something out of concrete we need to make sure it is long lasting and meets the needs of the owner. This video talks about four items to focus on to build long high quality and lasting concrete. They are the water to cement ratio, consolidation, curing, and air entrainment in freeze thaw environments.
