Abstract Of building materials, concrete is currently one of the most widely used on account of its low cost, appropriate mechanical features and its durability, as well as the ease with which it can adopt different shapes and sizes (Najimi et al., 2012). Because of the importance of the use of concrete as a structural material and its impact on the environment as a consumer of large quantities of natural resources and as a CO2 emitter in the cement industry, it is necessary to develop mixtures from the science of materials to accompany the growth of construction while considering and taking measures to care for the environment, that is, to develop energetically efficient materials. This article presents the use of a natural zeolite, a material with potential pozzolanic activity, to partially replace Portland cement in different percentages in structural concrete. The physico-chemical characterization of the zeolite material is presented with the results of resistance and durability of concrete to which this addition has been incorporated.
