Vacuum Dewatering During Concreting: Modern Construction Method
Abstract: In the RCC construction, water–cement ratio is detrimental for concrete. We always try to restrict the water–cement ratio because we want structure achieve its higher strength rather it is necessary for structure life. For the chemical reaction which is generated in cement and water, water–cement ratio of less than 0.38, whereas the adopted water–cement ratio is much more than that mainly because of the requirement of workability. After the requirement …
