Cover of Raffaele Piero Galli: The end of concrete (ePUB)

‘We design and build in concrete, as if nothing else existed. We take building participation for granted today, having almost completely forgotten that, prior to its advent, we have built it very, very well for a very long time.’
Professor Raffaele Piero Galli illustrates through chemistry, history, experience and concrete examples why the concrete is not the best construction choice and the reasons why it should be built again with stone and lime.
