This article presents the results of tests evaluating the physical and mechanical properties of a modified hydraulic concrete formulation based on Portland cement, intended for use in general construction. The additive consists of post-alcohol distiller’s grains (PaB), soapstock (Sp), caustic soda (NaOH), granite dust (Gr) and acrylic latex (Lx). These components contribute to transforming the strength characteristics of concrete in compression and bending, as well as its water absorption, water permeability and chemical resistance. Based on the results obtained, the effectiveness of the additive was assessed, as was the quantitative improvement in concrete properties, including an evaluation of the life cycle of reinforced concrete structures in aggressive environments. According to the research results, an optimal composition was obtained which increases compressive strength by 6.2%, flexural strength by 7.9%, decreases water absorption by 50.1%, decreases the filtration coefficient by 97.4%, and increases chemical resistance by 42.8%.
