Concrete hardens as a result of the chemical reaction between cement and water so that for every 4 lbs of cement 1 lb of water is needed. The ratio is therefore 1:4 or 20%. This mix will be too dry so more water is needed than is technically necessary, the ratio should therefore be 35% to 40% and using a plasticizer

What is water to cement ratio?
Water/cement ratio law states that the strength of concrete is only dependent upon water/cement ratio provided the mix is workable.Strength of concrete primarily depends upon the strength of cement paste.Similarly, the strength of the paste increases with cement content and decreases with air and water content.
What is the lowest water cement ratio?
0.4

What is water to cement?
Water cement ratio is defined as the indicator of strength is the ratio of water used compared to the amount of cement.Lower the W/C ratio, higher will be the strength.A minimum of W/C ratio 0.3 should be adopted.
How much water is required in 1 bags of cement?
it depends on the type of mix and water cement ratio.
What effect has the quantity of mixing water have upon the quality of concrete?
the strength of concrete is effected by water /cement ratio as the water/cement ratio increases the strength of the concrete decreases
