Technology of concrete

Beton je građevinski materijal koji poradi svoje čvrstoće i mogućnosti oblikovanja u tekućem stanju ima široku primjenu. Danas je beton neizostavan dio svih oblika gradnje. Ubraja se u kompozitne materijale koji se dobivaju miješanjem agregata, cementa, vode i drugih dodataka. Miješanje se odvija u mješalicama koje se najčešće koriste u betonarama, odnosno tvornicama za proizvodnju betona. U ovom radu će se prikazati svojstva betona, njegova građevinska vrijednost, način proizvodnje betona te ispitivanje betona u tekućem i očvrsnutom stanju.Concrete is a construction material that, due to its strength and shapeability in the liquid state, has a wide application. Today concrete is an indispensable part of all forms of construction. It is included in composite materials obtained by mixing aggregates, cement, water and other additives. Mixing takes place in mixers most commonly used in concrete or concrete production factories. This paper presents the properties of concrete, its construction value, the way of concrete production and the testing of concrete in liquid and hardened state
