The world of building..

History repeats its self and not just in human actions, but in bulding supplies as well. Notably in the form of cement which has been fruit caking all over the planet since the begining of time or at least 6500 B.C. The Syrians used it to line fire pits and the like. Although it would apear that the Egyptians were some of the first profuse users of cement, and I can just about guaranty that the slaves who had to mix, pour and spread the stuff, hated it just as much as any builder of today does.

Although it was the Romans who saw the true protential for cements use and they went on to develope Roman concrete (also called Opus caementicium). It was the material used in construction during the whole history of the Roman Empire and many notible buildings are still standing today. Roman concrete was based on a hydraulic-setting cement with many material qualities similar to modern Portland cement. By the middle of the first century, the material was used frequently as brick-faced concrete, although variations in aggregate allowed different arrangements of materials. Further innovative developments in the material, coined the Concrete Revolution, contributed to structurally complicated forms, such as the Pantheon dome.

And just to the left there you can see and anciant Pro X store ------->

Most likely they're the ones that supplied the concrete for the building project.

So whether you are just planning a simple patio or a slightly more grandiose Roman style structure please remember that Pro X carries both Pre-mix concrete (80# bags, does 2/3rds of a cubic foot) and Portland (94#, does 1 cubic foot) and our yard guys just love loading it.
