Building materials
Building materials are necessary to resist the various natural factors that affect buildings, and there are many materials used in construction, whether solid materials such as stones and wood or loose materials such as sand and cement, and it is necessary to match building materials with work requirements and quality standards, and in this article we will show the types of materials Building.

concrete
It is also known as concrete, and it is one of the most important materials used in construction at the present time, and it can be defined as a material or mixture consisting of water, cement, sand, and a type of aggregate such as gravel or teeth, and these materials are mixed together to form a homogeneous mixture through a process called time of setting. It is worth noting that the Romans were the first to use this material about two thousand years ago, and they used it in their buildings for many reasons, including: its ability to form easily, and the ability of anyone to do so after a simple operation. Training and types of concrete:

Concrete mortar: It is a mixture of Homsani gravel with an amount of sand and cement mortar.
Soft concrete: It is concrete and consists of natural gravel or fractions resulting from hard stone with an amount of pure sand in addition to an amount of fine powder and cement.

Ordinary concrete: it is the concrete of cleanliness, and it is not used in buildings that are exposed to pressures or loads, and it is usually used to fill voids in structures, or to stabilize the soil built on top of those structures.
Reinforced concrete: It is poured using iron rods to strengthen it and increase its strength and ability to bear large weights. It is often used in bridges, tall buildings, and roofs.

Builds
It is considered one of the most important building materials in the world, and it has been known for hundreds of years, and it was considered a remnant of volcanoes, then it developed in the Middle Ages and became considered limestone and mud, then in modern times it became in the form of dry sand.

iron
It has many types, some of which have the form of cylindrical bars of different thicknesses, and some of which take the form of ribbed bars with short ends in the middle. Iron is used to strengthen and strengthen concrete, so it is called reinforced concrete.

Tobar wood
It is wood in the form of long rods and a streamlined surface, like that of park benches, and is used to shape the space into which concrete needs to be poured so that it takes the shape of that space.

Bricks
It is a rectangular piece of mud and water. It is used in the construction of building walls between columns. There is a type of it used in the construction of roofs along with iron and concrete.

Other materials
White sand: It is a stone powder mixed with cement and water to form concrete.
Tiles: It is used to cover the floors of buildings, and there are many types of it, including: ceramic, granite and marble.
Gravel: It is spread under the tiles in buildings to obtain flat surfaces, and a small amount of it is used in the concrete mixture to increase its cohesion with iron.
Paints: They are used to paint buildings from the inside with different colours.
