Answer / premkumar
Cement required water for chemical action to achieve
strength. Minimum requirement of water is 30% by weight of
cement and workability for concrete also important so adding
more water which is not good for concrete and unavoidable.
Now a days Admixer is available and using for workability
for concrete for any cementenious works.
