Concrete made of plain cement is known as PCC or plain cement concrete. Plain cement concrete (PCC), which consists of cement, fine and coarse aggregates, is also known as Portland cement concrete. PCC is usually laid directly on the excavated soil before any other work such as roofing or masonry is done directly on the surface in order to form a level surface and to avoid laying concrete directly on the soil so as to avoid mixing it directly with the soil and also in order to prevent soil extracting water from the PCC, thus causing it to become weaker.
