Abstract
History of concrete dates back to 1,200 BC, when reactions between limestone and oil shale during spontaneous combustion occurred in Israel to form a natural deposit of cement compounds.In ancient era cement was not discovered, so Lime — was used as an adhesive, to harden and strengthen the construction, was used to construct concrete floors. In modern times, researchers have experimented with the addition of other materials, like water-based cross linking polymers, to create concrete with improved properties, such as higher strength, electrical conductivity, or resistance to damages through spillage.Concrete is a composite material composed of water, coarse granular material embedded in a hard matrix of material (the cement or binder) that fills the space among the aggregate particles and glues them together. In addition, the marble cutting industry generates a high volume of wastes. Recent studies showed that marble waste can be used as construction materials
