English translation:high performance concrete?
Explanation:
Jenette,

I spent two hours trying to find the equivalents. No matches, I am afraid.
For concreto de punta, I found many links (particularly from Mexico)where "de punta" with regard to concrete is defined as in "tecnología de punta". If that is so, then, I found
high performance concrete.

I checked www.google.com extensively. But, also, and let me suggest you visit some sites, I went to e-groups Glossy (glossaries). There are many EN>EN, EN>SP contruction (and even one concrete) glossaries. I checked most of them, but couldn'd find anything. Maybe, having the full text, you can spot something I missed?
