2.1. Structure and rheological properties
Concrete mix is a system in which cement paste and water bind aggregates such
as sand and gravel or crushed stone into a homogeneous mass.
The coefficient of internal friction relies mainly on the coarseness of aggregates
and can be approximately calculated on the Lermit and Turnon formula:
where d - middle diameter of particles of

The rheological model of concrete mixture is usually characterized by
