This studio aimed at developing understanding of concrete as a versatile material. The main objective was to enable students to identify the right grade and type of concrete for different applications and products. It provided a comprehensive coverage of the theoretical and practical aspects of the subject and included the latest developments in the field of concrete construction. It had been designed to provide students with a detailed understanding of concrete as a material for construction and various ingredients of the same. The studio dealt with behavior of all ingredients in relation to physical properties, concrete production, various concrete placement methods and quality assurance during and after concreting operations. The properties of concrete and its constituent materials and the role of various admixtures in modifying various properties to suit specific requirements, such as RMC, FRC, Pervious concrete, lightweight concrete, translucent concrete, bendable concrete, Geopolymer concrete etc were treated comprehensively. Students designed and developed concrete for many of the applications prevailing in the field with prototype development along with cost analysis.
