Objective and Significance: – Tensile strength is the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled before breaking. The ultimate tensile strength is usually found by performing a tensile test and recording the engineering stress versus strain. The highest point of the stress–strain curve is the ultimate tensile strength and has […]

Water Cement Ratio The water cement ratio is the ratio of the weight of water to the weight of cement used in a concrete mix. A lower ratio leads to higher strength and durability, but may make the mix difficult to work with and form. Workability of the concrete is directly depended to the water

Concrete admixture: – Concrete admixtures are natural or manufactured chemicals or additives added during concrete mixing to enhance specific properties of the fresh or hardened concrete, such as workability, durability, or early and final strength. It is generally are added to the mix immediately before or during mixing. Most admixtures are supplied in ready-to-use liquid
