The most common measure is the water-cement ratio (w/c), calculated as:
Water-Cement Ratio = Total Water / Cement
For optimal workability and high compressive strength, the ideal w/c ratio typically falls between 0.35 – 0.40, with most concrete mixes ranging from 0.375 – 0.400.
Too little water makes the mix difficult to place and compact, while excess water can cause hydraulicity issues, even when using admixtures like superplasticisers or air-entraining agents. For highly waterproof mixes, too much water is undesirable as it can lead to placement problems, compaction issues, or segregation of aggregate particles.
