Wiki: Concrete is a composite construction material that is composed of cement and other cementitious materials such as fly ash and slag cement, aggregate (generally a coarse aggregate made of gravels or crushed rocks such as limestone, or granite, plus a fine aggregate such as sand), water, and chemical admixtures. The word concrete comes from the Latin word ""concretus"" (meaning compact or condensed), the past participle of ""concresco"", from ""com-"" (together) and ""cresco"" (to grow). Concrete solidifies and hardens after mixing with water and placement due to a chemical process known as hydration.
