Difference between Concrete and Water–cement ratio

Concrete vs. Water–cement ratio

Concrete, usually Portland cement concrete, is a composite material composed of fine and coarse aggregate bonded together with a fluid cement (cement paste) that hardens over time—most frequently a lime-based cement binder, such as Portland cement, but sometimes with other hydraulic cements, such as a calcium aluminate cement. The water–cement ratio is the ratio of the weight of water to the weight of cement used in a concrete mix.

Similarities between Concrete and Water–cement ratio

Concrete and Water–cement ratio have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Blast furnace, Cement, Concrete, Concrete slump test, Duff Abrams, Fly ash, Hydration reaction, Plasticizer, Pozzolan, Segregation in concrete, Superplasticizer.

Blast furnace

A blast furnace is a type of metallurgical furnace used for smelting to produce industrial metals, generally pig iron, but also others such as lead or copper.

Cement

A cement is a binder, a substance used for construction that sets, hardens and adheres to other materials, binding them together.

Duff Abrams

Duff A. Abrams (1880, Illinois, – 1965, New York) was an American researcher in the field of composition and properties of concrete.

Fly ash

Fly ash, also known as "pulverised fuel ash" in the United Kingdom, is a coal combustion product that is composed of the particulates (fine particles of burned fuel) that are driven out of coal-fired boilers together with the flue gases.

Hydration reaction

In chemistry, a hydration reaction is a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with water.

Plasticizer

Plasticizers (UK: plasticisers) or dispersants are additives that increase the plasticity or decrease the viscosity of a material.

Pozzolan

Pozzolans are a broad class of siliceous or siliceous and aluminous materials which, in themselves, possess little or no cementitious value but which will, in finely divided form and in the presence of water, react chemically with calcium hydroxide at ordinary temperature to form compounds possessing cementitious properties.

Segregation in concrete

Segregation in concrete is a case of particle segregation in concrete applications, in which particulate solids tend to segregate by virtue of differences in the size, density, shape and other properties of particles of which they are composed.

Superplasticizer

Superplasticizers, also known as high range water reducers, are chemical admixtures used where well-dispersed particle suspension is required.
