How Is Concrete Made. Concrete is a composite material composed of fine and coarse aggregat e bonded together with a fluid cement ( cement paste ) that hardens (cures) over time. When aggregate is mixed with dry cement and water , the mixture forms a fluid slurry that is easily poured and moulded into shape.
