THE INFLUENCE OF QUANTITY OF WATER AND SALINITY ON THE WORKABILITY AND COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF THE CONCRETE

BY

LIUS HENRY

ABSTRACT

To obtain a good quality of concrete, there are things to be concerned about for they can affect on properties of concrete, such as the workability and compressive strength of the concrete. Some of the things that are needed to be concerned are quantity of water and salinity.

Well, from the study and research that has been done, both salinity and quantity of water do effect on these workability and compressive strength. How will salinity and quantity of water effect on these two properties of concrete? How much effect do they take against the properties of concrete? Check it out in more detail inside the content.
