  2. Water–cement ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water–cement_ratio

    The water–cement ratio ( w/c ratio, or water-to-cement ratio, sometimes also called the Water-Cement Factor, f) is the ratio of the mass of water ( w) to the mass of cement ( c) used in a concrete mix: The typical values of this ratio f = w⁄c are generally comprised in the interval 0.40 and 0.60. The water-cement ratio of the fresh concrete ...

  3. Properties of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_concrete

    The ultimate strength of concrete is influenced by the water-cementitious ratio (w/cm), the design constituents, and the mixing, placement and curing methods employed.All things being equal, concrete with a lower water-cement (cementitious) ratio makes a stronger concrete than that with a higher ratio. [2]

  4. Decorative concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decorative_concrete

    Board-marked concrete showing the grain of the timber. As a modern technique, stamped concrete is the process of adding texture and color to concrete to make it resemble stone, brick, slate, cobblestone and many other products found in nature including wood, fossils, shells and many more. [1]

  5. Concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete

    A single concrete block, as used for construction. Concrete is a composite material composed of aggregate bonded together with a fluid cement that cures to a solid over time. Concrete is the second-most-used substance in the world after water, [ 1] and is the most widely used building material. [ 2] Its usage worldwide, ton for ton, is twice ...

  6. Abrams' law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrams'_law

    Abrams' law. Abrams' law (also called Abrams' water-cement ratio law) [1] is a concept in civil engineering. The law states the strength of a concrete mix is inversely related to the mass ratio of water to cement. [1] [2] As the water content increases, the strength of concrete decreases. Abrams’ law is a special case of a general rule ...

  7. Creep and shrinkage of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Creep_and_shrinkage_of_concrete

    Creep and shrinkage of concrete are two physical properties of concrete. The creep of concrete, which originates from the calcium silicate hydrates (C-S-H) in the hardened Portland cement paste (which is the binder of mineral aggregates), is fundamentally different from the creep of metals and polymers. Unlike the creep of metals, it occurs at ...

  8. Ready-mix concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready-mix_concrete

    Ready-mix concrete. 1.6 cuM. transit mixer. Small batching plant for local small deliveries. The inside of a volumetric mixer. It uses a simple Archimedes' screw to mix (clockwise) and to lift the concrete to the delivery chute. Ready-mix concrete ( RMC) is concrete that is manufactured in a batch plant, according to each specific job ...

  9. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    As per Indian codes, compressive strength of concrete is defined as: Field cured concrete in cubic steel molds (Greece) The compressive strength of concrete is given in terms of the characteristic compressive strength of 150 mm size cubes tested after 28 days (fck). In field, compressive strength tests are also conducted at interim duration i.e ...
