by any weathering agencies.
5. cement create good bonging with all inert material in

these are some points because it could not easy to define
why we use cement in concrete because this topic is very
wide and lots of time to explain, i will providing a non

In IS:456-2000 the workability of concrete is given in mm (slump)in cl.7.1. In IS:10262-1982, cl.3.3.4 & table-6 says +/- 3 percent adjustment is required in the quantity of water (calculated as per table-4 or 5), for each increase or decrease in the value of compacting factor (i.e. workability of concrete) by 0.1. How it is possible to calculate the exact quantity of water required for a particular grade of concrete? What is the relation between Slump & Compacting factor of concrete?
