The water cement ratio and slump of concrete are common problems encountered in construction projects.
Regarding the relationship between the two, most migrant workers and even some construction technicians, as well as some of our supervisors, are not very clear.
They think that a high water cement ratio means a high slump, and a high slump means a high water cement ratio.

There is a fundamental distinction between these two, but they are also interrelated.
To illustrate this issue, we need to start with the mix design of concrete.
Taking weight ratio as an example, the calculation sequence of mix ratio is as follows:.
