Proper Water cement ratio According to the Type of Concrete . How water cement ratio affects The strength of concrete??

We should keep in mind while use of concrete grade to maintain strength of RCC ✍️

1. Proper water cement ratio
2. Proper mix design as per Ratio
3. Vi****or use
4. Curing
5. Reinforcement detail with Adiquate spacing. 💯🚧

✍️There are 9 Type of concrete that are used in Construction industry. These are following .🏗
1. PCC - concrete without steel reinforcement uses in Flooring base and Below the foundation. 💯

2. RCC (Reinforced cement concrete )- concrete with steel reinforcement bars uses in beam column Slab footings. 💯

3. PSC ( pre stressed concrete)- in which steel tendons are tensiond before and after the concrete. Uses in long span Bridges and heavy structures. 💯

4. Precast concrete - concrete members are casted in factory or yard then transported to site. Uses in boundry walls drain covers and panels.💯

5. RMC - ready mix concrete uses in residential building. High Rise structures and commercial projects. 💯

6. HSC- High strength concrete. - concrete having higher compressive strength uses in high rise building Bridges and heavy structures. 💯

7. SCC - self compacting concrete - concrete that flows and compacts without vibration. Uses in congested reinforcement areas. Complex formwork . 💯

8. FRC- Fibre reinforced concrete - concrete mixed with fibres like steel Glass or polypropylene. Uses in industrial floors, Pavements and crack resistance works . 💯

9. Air entrained concrete- concrete containing tiny air bubbles. It is Used in cold weather reagion. 🚧
