Alma Golgota , Boriana Vrusho nda Axhelo Xhafkollari

Albanian constructions has been involved in lately updated engineering technologies. Use of durable concrete is one of the most important area in which is being pointed. In this paper I will analyze durability of durable and waterproof concrete, the way it is designed and its conctent, what is the preparation process. All this, will be described according to implementation in some residential buildings in Albania. At the end, will be described how and to what extent the use if these concrete can impact Albanian’s everyday life. The study aims to analyze production and use of waterproof and abrasion resistent concrete produced by mixing materials found in our country with water/cement ratio 0.35 . This creates beautiful concrete with lifespan to the action of car tires in parking areas. All this can be translated in lower economic costs from the traditional way and above all, creates relaxing, creative and healthy environments.
