Abstract The invention in one aspect relates to an alternative concrete composite using the soil on site and gravel on site, mixed with cement and reinforcement pieces according to another aspect of the present invention. The use of the reinforcement pieces allows the alternative concrete composite using the available 'unclean' soil and gravel on site to be formed into structures as needed at a substantially reduced cost. The reinforcement pieces 10, 20 in one embodiment are made from plastics material, and are ideally made from recycled waste plastics material, shaped to include generally opposed hook or bar portions for embedding into the soil and concretemix. In another embodiment, a single used tyre 600 can be recycled to form slit side tyre bead portions 310, cut-out tyre beads 300, recycled tyre mesh 220, or strands 612 as reinforcement pieces.
