RESULTS FOR ARCHITECTURAL CONCRETE

Definition: concrete that will be permanently exposed to view and therefore requires special care in selection of the concrete materials, forming, placing, and finishing to obtain the desired architectural appearance.- ACI Concrete Terminology

Architectural concrete indicates concrete that results in both an aesthetic finish and structural ability. Selection of concrete materials, forming, placing, and finishing are used to achieve the architectural appearance required.
