<strong>Concrete</strong> <strong>and</strong> The <strong>Environment</strong><br />

A Better <strong>Concrete</strong> in <strong>the</strong> Future<br />

• Although as a structural material concrete generally has a<br />

history of satisfactory performance, it is expected that even a<br />

better product will be available in <strong>the</strong> future owing to overall<br />

improvements in elastic modulus, flexural strength, tensile<br />

strength, impact strength, <strong>and</strong> permeability.<br />
