Abstract:
 One of applications of sulfur in building industry is producing sulfur concrete (SC). High resistance, in acid environments, gaining high and rapid  resistance, not using water during preparation, the possibility of  recycling and low permeability can be pointed out as the most significant specifications of  sulfur concrete .The present study investigates  the role of acid on mechanical resistances including compressive and tensile strength  on modified and none-modified  sulfur concrete .The implications  indicate that  sulfur concretes are much more resistant against acids as compared with regular concretes .economically, It can be referred  that if preparation of SC becomes more easier, it can replace  regular concrete in a number of regular hydraulic projects.
