CoastsInfrastructure

Ancient Roman pozzolanic concrete is still standing strong after two thousand
years, and not only does it resist damage, but salt water actually makes it
stronger. Researchers have been studying samples of the concrete and found that
volcanic ash, lime and seawater are the main ingredients. Even better, but its
