Concrete roads are a rigid road paving type, and there will usually be joints in the concrete to control cracking. Much of the US Interstate network and European highway network use concrete construction, although it has been much less popular in the UK. Concrete road pavements can handle very heavy traffic flows and high axle loads.

a) Plasticizers. Prior to concrete being put to use, it has to obtain a certain consistency. Plasticizers are chemical admixtures that decrease the water-cement ratio in concrete by around 5% to 12% and obtain the required consistency. Their addition to the mix increases the workability of the concrete and makes it easier to pour and place in accessible locations.
