2. Decorative concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decorative_concrete

   Stamped concrete in various patterns, highlighted with acid stain. Decorative concrete is the use of concrete as not simply a utilitarian medium for construction but as an aesthetic enhancement to a structure, while still serving its function as an integral part of the building itself such as floors, walls, driveways, and patios.

3. Types of concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_concrete

   Regular concrete can typically withstand a pressure from about 10 MPa (1450 psi) to 40 MPa (5800 psi), with lighter duty uses such as blinding concrete having a much lower MPa rating than structural concrete. Many types of pre-mixed concrete are available which include powdered cement mixed with an aggregate, needing only water.

4. Superplasticizer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superplasticizer

   Their addition allows to decrease the water-to-cement ratio of concrete or mortar without negatively affecting the workability of the mixture. It enables the production of self-consolidating concrete and high-performance concrete. The water–cement ratio is the main factor determining the concrete strength and its durability. Superplasticizers ...

5. 3D concrete printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_concrete_printing

   A print head that is set too high will reduce the bond strength between layers, causing an unstable shape. [8] A nozzle too close to the printing surface may interfere with the printing process and place additional loads on the concrete. Research proposes a print height equal to the width of the nozzle. [8]

   The Face Floor Profile Numbering System ("F-Numbers") has been adopted by the American Concrete Institute, the American Society for Testing and Materials, the Canadian Standards Association, the World Bank and is more widely used with each passing year. A system that is a slight modification of F-Numbers is used in much of Europe.
