Hardened concrete must have sufficient strength to resist stresses from loads on a structure.
The strength must also be high enough for variations in concrete mixtures.

Concrete must be able to withstand forces of deterioration such as : Freezing and Thawing Wetting and Drying Erosion and Chemical attack
Durability

Qualified concrete should have a minimum of shrinkage or expansion because of outside forces and chemical reactions within the concrete itself.
