Test yourself in 10 seconds
One question a day keeps exam stress away. Pick an answer to check it.
In the process of hydration of OPC, to complete all chemical reaction, the water requirement (expressed as the percentage of cement) is ........
Answer: D. 35 to 45%
To complete all hydration reactions in OPC (including both chemical combination and gel water), the water required is 35% to 45% of the cement mass by weight. This corresponds to w/c = 0.35 to 0.45.
