Abstract:
With time lapse between the mixing and placing of concrete, the workability of concrete mix is reduced which inturn affects the strength of concrete .This loss of slump (due to decreased workability) can be compensated by adding calculated quantity of cement and water which takes the strength near to its design value. The strength of concrete at various time intervals is presented in this paper with mixing additional cement and water. It is to be noted that no use of admixture was adopted for the work.
