Water requirements indicated are based on laboratory test conditions. Actual water requirement may vary subject to site conditions. The properties shown are for vibratory cast material only unless specified otherwise. All values are based on test results on standard bars of size 160x40x40 mm. Test methods are guided by and based on various Indian Standards (IS).
