NENC6810

Articles of cement, of concrete or of artificial stone, whether or not reinforced Concrete is made from a mixture of cement, aggregates (sand, gravel) and water, which becomes extremely hard as it sets. Reinforced concrete also contains metal rods (reinforcing bars) or steel mesh. When lighter aggregates are used (for example, expanded clays, crushed pumice, vermiculite, granulated slag) ‘light concrete’ is obtained.
