WHAT DOES GRANOLITH MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Granolithic

Granolithic screed, also known as granolithic paving and granolithic concrete, is a type of construction material composed of cement and fine aggregate such as granite or other hard-wearing rock. It is generally used as flooring, or as paving. It has a similar appearance to concrete, and is used to provide a durable surface where texture and appearance are usually not important. It is commonly laid as a screed. Screeds are a type of flooring laid on top of the structural element to provide a level surface on which the "wearing flooring" is laid. A screed can also be laid bare, as it provides a long-lasting surface. The aggregate mixed with the cement can be of various size, shape, and material, depending on the texture of the surface needed and how long-lasting it must be. The aggregate is usually sifted so that the particles are roughly the same size, which helps reduces air pockets in the material. Generally, the mix of aggregate to cement is 2.5 to 1 by volume. Granolithic screed or paving can be problematic. Because it is made with a high cement content and requires a great deal of water to mix, it may crack while drying.
