- 1Aluminuma lightweight chemical element (Al); the most abundant metallic element in the Earth's crust
- 2Bedrockthe solid rock layer beneath sand or silt
- 3Cast Irona brittle alloy with high carbon content; iron that has been melted, then poured into a form and cooled; can be made into any shape desired
- 4Cementa binding material, or glue, that helps concrete harde
- 5Concretea mixture of water, sand, small stones, and a gray powder called cement

- 7Masonrya building material such as stone, clay, brick, or concrete
- 8Pilea long, round pole of wood, concrete, or steel driven into the soil by pile drivers
- 9Reinforced Concreteconcrete with steel bars or mesh embedded in it for increased strength in tension; in pre-tensioned concrete, the embedded steel bars or cables are stretched into tension before the concrete hardens; in post-tensioned concrete, the embedded steel bars or cables are stretched into tension after the concrete hardens
- 10Shear-Wallssolid concrete walls that resist shear forces; often used in buildings constructed in earthquake zones
- 11Siltsediment particles ranging from 0.004 to 0.06 mm (0.00016 to 0.0024 inch) in diameter
- 12Steelan alloy of iron and carbon that is hard, strong, and malleable
- 13Wooda common natural material strong in both compression and tension
- 14Wrought Ironan iron alloy that is less brittle than cast iron
