Concrete Design & Production. Concrete is a mixture of two components: aggregates and paste. The paste, comprised of cement and water, binds the aggregates (usually sand and gravel or crushed stone) into a rocklike mass as the paste hardens. A properly proportioned concrete mix possesses acceptable workability of the freshly mixed concrete and ...

HOW TO CALCULATE WATER CEMENT RATIO The water to cement ratio is calculated by dividing the water in one cubic yard of the mix ( in pounds) by the cement in the mix (in pounds). So if one cubic yard of the mix has 235 pounds of water and 470 pounds of cement- the mix is a .50 water to cement ratio.

WATER-CEMENT RATIO (w/c) - The water-cement ratio of a concrete mix is the ratio of the weight of free-water in the mix to the weight of cement in the mix. It is computed on a weight basis by simply dividing the weight of the water in the mix by the weight of the cement in the mix. For example, for a mix containing 282 pounds of water and 564 ...
