When a concrete foundation is properly poured, it is sturdy, stable, and durable. As the material cures, it will shrink and small surface cracks may appear. This is normal and does not indicate that the pour is sub-standard.
If you will be using manufactured concrete in high-traffic areas, we recommend applying a good sealant once the main construction is completed. This is simply a protective measure to make sure that the surface does not become accidentally stained.
With a slab on grade foundation, the slab is poured thicker at the edges to form an integral footing, with reinforcing rods strengthening the thickened edge. One of the benefits of this type of foundation is that it can be poured all at one time.
The word concrete has a Latin origin which makes the likelihood that concrete may go back as far as the Roman times. Some structures still stand today in the Mediterranean, which they are great examples of the strength of concrete.
Hydraulic cements harden with hydration- a chemical reaction that occurs independently of added water. This type of cement can even harden underwater or when exposed to wet weather.
