Innovation in Concrete November 2020

Concrete is the most commonly used construction material used extensively in buildings,
bridges, roads and dams. To meet the demands for these cutting-edge projects, concrete must be stronger, more durable and more workable than ever before. Therefore, new products, manufacturing methods and research are being done to meet these new
challenges. We must ensure solutions are low carbon, material-efcient and without
compromising quality and performance standards, such as re safety and noncombustibility.

In this edition of eMag-Lounge, we have discussed innovations taking place in concrete
technology. We have focused on topics such as Concrete Cloth, Ultra-High-Performance
Concrete, Nanotechnology in Concrete and Innovations in Concrete. Our industry is
meeting the needs of a changing world. We continue to work to evolve the production
and use of cement and concrete to make an even greater contribution to sustainable
development.
