Q: As water cement ratio increases, ……… also increases.
  • A. Compressive strength
  • B. Tensile strength
  • C. Bleeding
  • D. Workability
Correct Answer: Option D - In general, a water cement ratio of 0.45 to 0.6 is used for good workable concrete without the use of any admixture. Higher the water/cement ratio, Higher will be workability but strength decreases as water/cement ratio increases.
D. In general, a water cement ratio of 0.45 to 0.6 is used for good workable concrete without the use of any admixture. Higher the water/cement ratio, Higher will be workability but strength decreases as water/cement ratio increases.
