Classification of Concrete

Concrete can be classified as following :

On the basis of Binding Material

  1. Cement concrete
  2. Lime Concrete
  3. Gypsum Concrete

On the basis of strength

  1. Low Strength Concrete (S< 20 KN/mm2 )
  2. Medium Strength Concrete (S= 20-40 KN/mm2 )
  3. High Strength Concrete (S> 40 KN/mm2 )

Where “S” stands for strength of concrete .

On the Basis of Bulk Density

  1. Extra Light concrete
  2. Light Weight Concrete
  3. Dense Weight concrete
  4. Super Heavy Weight Concrete

On the Basis of Method of Casting

  1. Precast Concrete
  2. Cast in situ Concrete

On the Basis of Perspective Specification
