For increased strength, concrete blocks must be properly compacted. Age of concrete. The older the concrete blocks, the stronger they are. Aging has a huge contribution to increasing the compressive strength of concrete. However, after a certain period of time, the increase in strength is negligible; but concrete particles gain …

An architect of the same period, Félix Candela (1910-97) took concrete in quite a different direction. Born in Spain, Candela emigrated to Mexico when he was 26. He reshaped the capabilities of reinforced concrete into thin shells that could carry the curvature of concrete out into space.
