Concrete Mix Design, Form Design, and Engineering
Concrete strength is largely determined by the ratio of water to cement in the mixture (pounds of water and pounds of cement). A sack of cement requires about 2 1/2 gallons of water for hydration. More water is added to allow for workability, but too much water (a high water and cement (w/c) ratio) reduces concrete strength. The

In a concrete mix design, the water-cement (w/c) ratio is a key design parameter, with a typical range being from 0.37 to 0.50. When using a blended cement, the water demand will probably be somewhat reduced because of the presence of the fly ash in the blended cement. When fly ash is used as a separately batched material, trial mixes …
