To calculate the Water-Cement Ratio:
\[ \text{Water-Cement Ratio} = \frac{\text{Weight of Water}}{\text{Weight of Cement}} \]
Where:
The Water-Cement Ratio is a crucial parameter in concrete mix design. It affects the strength, durability, and workability of the concrete. A lower ratio leads to higher strength and durability, but can make the mix harder to work with[^1^][^2^].
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{Water-Cement Ratio} = \frac{200}{400} = 0.50 \]
The Water-Cement Ratio is 0.50.
