Which problem was addressed with Roman concrete's hydraulic behavior?

💡 Explanation

The problem of saltwater erosion was addressed by incorporating pozzolanic ash, which creates a hydraulic reaction: volcanic ash reacts with lime and water to form durable calcium-aluminum-silicate hydrates giving improved chemical resistance, therefore reducing erosion rather than other concrete failure modes.
