To create this structure, between 1756 and 1759, British engineer John Smeaton pioneered the use of hydraulic lime in concrete, using reef stones and powdered brick as aggregate. A method for producing Portland cement was patented by Joseph Aspdin in 1824. Reinforced concrete was invented in 1849 by Joseph Monier.

HISTORY OF CEMENT. The word "cement" is derived from the Latin word "caementum", which means chipped rock fragments. Limestone is well known to be the oldest material to be used as a binder. Lime was produced by heating near pure limestone, and lime mortar was created by adding and mixing water and sand. Concrete was first used in the ...

Prior to Aspdin's patent of portland cement at the first half of the 19th century, cementitious materials were composed of earth, mixture of earth and limestone, calcium sulfates, and slaked lime with and without pozzolans. The latter comprises pozzolanic materials from volcanic and sedimentary origin, crushed burnt clay brick, and dust brick.
