The purpose of the article was to draw attention to various aspects of sustainable development of the construction and durability of building materials. A special emphasis was put to concrete, which is one of the most used building materials in the present. Elaborated was not only the issue of emissions released by the production of components necessary for fabrication of concrete mixtures, but also a number of environmental, economic and social advantages the use of concrete offers. At the same time, attention was drawn also to the limits of durability, in particular of visible concrete, which can show signs of wear significantly before the final phase of its life cycle. External conditions are one of the most powerful factors affecting the surface layers of buildings. The consequence of their action is degradation of architectural works - function of buildings is preserved but loses its artistic impression. In the context of efforts to minimize negative environmental and economic impact and contribute to sustainable development, the focus was given also to the possibilities of increasing durability of reinforced concrete structures and their surfaces.
