Abstract:
I have been asked to relate my experience in the use of the time theory coupled with the water-cement ratio, and how it has enabled me to over wet my concrete as the best means of placing it, and subsequently to remove the excess water as the best way of establishing the correct water-cement ratio in the concrete at the time of final set.
