More about the book

The quality of water used in mixing and curing concrete or mortar is crucial, as it can significantly affect the hardening and strength development of the material. While it is commonly believed that potable water is suitable for this purpose, exceptions exist where drinking water may not be appropriate for concrete, and vice versa. The text emphasizes the need for stringent quality control of water, referencing standards such as British Standards, ASTM, and Indian Standards to ensure compliance and suitability for construction use.
