INTRODUCTION:
With a permanent place in all construction structures, concrete is one of the most important and widely utilized building materials. Due to its adaptability, or the capacity to be formless and shapeless when fresh while taking on the molded structure of any shape in accordance with needs for various structural forms, it may be thought of as being this significant. It is also fire resistant when the proper specifications are used and the proper processes are followed. Concrete can be utilized in a variety of construction structures, including retaining walls, bridge containment, single- and multi-story buildings, etc
