Concrete is considered as the backbone of construction industry which is a composite material composed ofcoarse aggregate bonded together with fluid cement that hardens overtime. Concrete industries are one of the majorconsumers of natural resources as they spends annually 1.5 billion tons of cement, 900 million liters of water and 9 milliontons of sand and water, so there is need to find an alternative ecofriendly material which will save our natural resourcesfrom being depleted. In this paper the author explains about the materials used in preparation of concrete along with itstypes and tests. The main aim of the sustainable development is to find alternative resources, which would decrease negativeeffect of concrete industry on environment and contribute to preservation of natural resources. The objective of this paper isto explain about process of preparing concrete and also about harmful effect of the materials used in it.
