Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If a concrete mix has a water-cement ratio of 0.4 and another has a ratio of 0.3, which mix would theoretically have higher strength? Explain why.

💡 Hint: Consider how excess water influences porosity and strength.

Question 2

Discuss how an inadequate curing process could affect the long-term performance of high strength concrete mixes.

💡 Hint: Think about the hydration process and its dependence on moisture.
