Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary characteristic of high-strength concrete?
  • Step 1: Understand what high-strength concrete is. It is a type of concrete that is stronger than regular concrete.
  • Step 2: Learn about the water-cement ratio. This is the amount of water compared to the amount of cement used in the concrete mix.
  • Step 3: Know that a low water-cement ratio means less water is used compared to cement. This makes the concrete stronger.
  • Step 4: Realize that using less water helps the concrete to be more durable and resistant to damage.
