Micro structure of concrete with nano materials gets changed like anything and is resulting tremendous increase in compressive strength apart from increase in specific surface area.
Why concrete roads are laid in section with pitch between them?
Concrete, whether in a road or a building expands (gets longer) in hot weather and contracts (gets shorter) in cold weather. So the builders install an expansion strip every so many feet to allow the concrete to make these small but significant changes in length. If this were not done, the concrete, when warm, would expand, and having nowhere to go, would go up (roads) or out (buildings), thus ruining the road or building. These expansion joints are filled with pitch, tar, or mastic - they call it different things in different parts of the country - to keep out water. Water would freeze, and cause the same problems.

Why aluminum parts should not be in contact of concrete?
I believe that Concrete is naturally acidic so if any moisture of -any- amount gets in contact it will eat at the aluminum. It's not really a question of IF it will degrade it's just a matter of how fast it will degrade.
Does it expand and contract Even after concrete is dry?
No. Concrete never gets any bigger than the day it is poured.
What happens to most of the waste?
Gets buried, shredded, poured down the drains.
What is the freezing point of concrete?
You're not supposed to pour concrete below 40ºfThere additives you can use in cold weather, and as concrete generates it's own heat as it cures, you can cover it with something insulative if it gets real cold.We've poured footings and foundations when the temp was in single digits, but you'll need to add the special "antifreeze".
Who gets to name newly discovered celestial bodies?
Who ever discovers it.
Can concrete turn into a liquid?
