cost its mainly because of to reduce the chemical reaction
which happens inside the concrete ie to reduce the heat of
hydration which ll cause or develops cracks on the hardened
concrete in the later stages. this may lead to

Hence min req. is the lower limit of material content.

Like minimum calory req. by our body to sustain life;
regardless of age, type of work, etc.
